For example, why do life forms have generations to come after them?

What? Do you want a freaking medal for living?
If passing on your DNA isn't good enough for you i don't know what is.

It is child-like thinking to assume that everything that exists must have a purpose. Life is just a process, like fire. Do you ask what is the purpose of fire? If there is no purpose to fire, why does it continue to burn and spread after you light it? Wrong question. It just is what it is, that's all. Deal with it.

It's because our reproductive organs are in good order. Yeah, those of our children and grandchildren too. I suppose unless a few generations throughout the world in the future are born without those organs then the human race will not perish from the earth. But it seems like that's not the way God is planning it. And I drink to that.

If life has no purpose then why does it continue?
I don't know about you but my life have a purpose and that is to care for my children and love my husband like i'm suppose to.. and then die.
I did my job and that's my purpose!

The answer is rather simple actually. Because things do not need a purpose to exist.

Have you considered turning the question round?
The fact that live continues is evidence it does not require any purpose other than to perpetuate itself.

The purpose of life is to propagate.

For the same reason you learn algebra(another thing with no purpose)...to annoy the heck out of you.
