What is the point of Life?

Question

What is the meaning of our lives and is it wrong to commit suicide if we are not content with ours?

Answer 1

Some people are born into money and are given all the opportunities in education etc.
Others ain't and for those that ain't life is hard pointless and frankly unbearable.

The problem is that all economies (and these rich people) need poverty, so to stop the poor killing themselves and to stop there being too many rich people for the economy to sustain.. our leaders have come up with the suicide is a sin thing.

So in essence - If all the poor killed themselves (or suicide was allowed or became fashionable even..among the poor) the economy and the currency would go moscow, and all the wealthy people would be screwed.

We don't live in a wealth dependant world, we live in a poverty dependant one.. if the poor folks don't like it..tough...they are needed.

You can explain most things in the bible - by it's relation to the economy and keeping alive yet repressing the crap out of the poor.

Answer 2

I don't believe in one big goal for all to follow, I think life really is what you make of it for the most part, though at times things will get in the way out of your control, I wouldn't want to say its wrong to commit suicide but would hope people try to resolve their problems first, before considering it.

Answer 3

To appreciate the gift G-d has given you.

To serve G-d.

To Love, to Live.

If you are feeling negative, it is probably due to the negative influences of the world. Perhaps try going in a different direction.

I would not recommend committing suicide. I truly believe you will wish you hadnt.

Answer 4

same question.
what's the meaning of our lives?
in ancient China, people believe that everything on and within our body, skin, hair, blood...all of them come from our parents, our ancestors. So we shouldn't even hurt ourselves deliberately, say nothing of suicide. Killing oneself was considered as the worst thing in the past and that must be a louchest guy.

but now, what happend? it seems any tiny thing can make a people end his or her own life. they dive into their so-called suffering and never think of their family, their friends.

in chinese, the character 众 has a meaning of sociaty, it's composed of three 人，人 means people. So people is not a single word. We have a property of sociality. we are not only committed to ourselves, but also for the sociaty, for our families, and for all others concerning us.

live in a healthy life and enjoy everyday.

Answer 6

This life is a part of our eternal quest to gain knowledge, and return to our Heavenly Father. He wants us to learn, He wants us to learn faith and all that, so that we can learn to be as He is. He wants us to learn to love each other. He wants us to have a family and learn familial love. That there is opposition in all things, and that when something bad happens, it is to help us learn to become a better person, and also to appreciate the good things when they come our way.
