Definitely. For what other reason would they be born? To be born is a purpose.

The word we should use is 'reason', not purpose. Purpose would mean there is some significant reason for one to be on Earth. Most people think of something of significance when they use the word 'purpose' in the phrase/term. What is actually true is 'reason'...we all have a reason for being here as opposed to we all have a purpose in life. The Earth reality is one of free will. It is a place spirits can go to get away from the everyday life. Free will of course means we can do whatever we want. This means some spirits are here just for the heck of it...to hang out and take advantage of what is available. If this happens, we of course will have those spirits motivated to help make corrections in the 'free will' zone of reality. Earth reality is so dynamic, spirits can be here just to provide a smile to people they pass by (no real 'purpose' as we would expect). Therefore it is more to the point of 'What is the reason for me being here?' rather than 'What is my purpose?'. I am 40 years old and I have no significant purpose in my life experience. I am a person of no significance. I don't have a wife or girlfriend. Don't have my own family and pretty much am isolated from the world around me (much like a mountain spiritist). That is not exactly a 'purpose' as we would expect. Now if I use the word 'reason' instead (the reason I came to Earth was to further my own personal education), then it makes much more sense. Because everyone else expects there to be an answer of significance...we are stimulated to also expect the same.

I wish, but I can't help remembering that we are merely biological beings. We can only be here to continue our species so that it can continue the species...someone somewhere would have discovered otherwise by this point in the game if there was something else to discover. And to everyone who is going to say that God is the purpose, God and the Bible didn't figure out that the Earth went around the Sun until a scientist figured it out here on Earth. What does that tell you about God? And if that is your purpose, I pity you. Connection to "divine" and what else is out there is fine; living only for a mythological figure sucks.

What is the purpose of an arrow in mid air?
Purpose without a cause (like someones plan=DESIRE) is not possible.
Thus then i would ask "who's purpose?". Your mom's? Or Jewish, Christian or Muslim God? Or Buddhist Karma?
So if you really need a purpose then how about..."all were born with his/her life history as purpose."

No.
Not even the world has a purpose.
Think about it. In 4 or 5 billion years time, the earth will be engulfed by the sun.
So even Shakespeare's life will have had no purpose.

NO...Everyone born on a planet to be Purpose itself and not "with" it... That makes a lot of difference. To be a Purpose or "carry" a burden of being carrier of a purpose is a matter of our choice while become conscious....Being a child we do not carry a "purpose" we are a purpose and in most cases not aware of it.....then we start to think what other thinking......miracle happens and a purpose is out and we are quickly inhibiting external purpose leaving behind our true selves purposeless...inhibited purpose takes over us , for we are now part of it, and cannot survive without its carrier-servant, driving us crazy with a difficulty to reach it..Suffering begun.....Purpose design to serve us and not otherwise...Big misunderstanding.

No. Especially now that we mass produce food and buy land. No need to fight for food or land. We create our own purpose.
