The fact of our existance does not imply or infer anything specific. You can just as logically say, "We exist and therefore there is a Zeus" or "We exist and therefore there is a Thor" or "We exist therefore there are Unicorns" etc etc... "Who created the gasses and base materials?" - how do you know a "someone" (God or Zeus or any other being you want to put in there) created them at all. Many other explanations can account for their as well as our existance. Until you have some evidence for whatever cause you claim, then all the explanations are no more then guesses and equal in speculation. It does not follow logically to say, "there is definitely a supreme being because we exist". No one has been able to answer the question "Why do we exist?" yet, the jury is still out and it may be a question that is unanswerable except in terms of philosophical speculation.

We exist for God- God created us and everything around us- the world, the universe- As Genesis 1 states, He made everything....
God has always been, and is definately our Creator and we can see Him through creation....obviously someone created the sky, trees, animals, mountains, ocean etc....just like a building has a builder and a painting has a painter, so creation has a Creator and it is God, maker of Heaven and Earth- and He made us to love and worship Him...He made a way for salvation through Jesus Christ, because we all were born into sin, since the fall of Adam and Eve- and sin separates man from God. But through Jesus Christ, we are redeemed, when we believe and put our trust in Him, repent of sin. See Romans 5:8-9 and Romans 6:23.
Colossians 1:16
For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities--all things were created through him and for him.
-And the meaning to this life is Jesus Christ!

This is a hard question. I think the big bang goes first and create the universe. Then the universe self-generate the living organisms. It then evolve into a superior being and they travel to planet earth. I think maybe we were artificially made by another superior being using future technology. I am not sure.

If you ask "why do we exist? who created us?" and you demand an answer, I ask you "why does god exist? who created god?". And if you do not accept this question, you can as well discard your own question. Either everything needs a reason, or not. If a god can exist without a reason, the universe, life, and humanity can exist without a reason as well.

God created us for company he wants a real relationship with each and every one of us. But if sin gets in the way then he can see the real us he just sees the sin

We exist because we can, and if you want your life to have significance, do something significant. (Quote courtesy of Carl Sagan.) Neither the existence nor non-existence of god can be demonstrated; it follows from this that to believe in a god is totally useless.

specious, you say there must be a "god" because there has to be a reason for the existence of the universe, but what is the reason for the existence of god? Take your pick, either god "just exists", or the universe "just exists".

To answer the existence part of the why I'd say: "in order to pose this question"; and since we are material (in part?), we need the entire program (i.e. the Universe) to support this very existence.

Who said it was created?
There are naturalistic explanations for existence. The deific hypothesis is unnecessary.
Did it ever occur to you that there might actually be no reason at all that we're here?
