I was told to write an essay on how I justify my existence on earth. How would you justify yours?

Question

I'm 14 by the way...go easy on me.

Answer 1

On cellur consciousness we agreed to come to earth for soul experience. We can play act what we call life here in physical form. Earth is a great place to make advances for soul progression.

You might not understand the answer because your only 14, but I'm sure your teacher will.

Good luck

Answer 2

MY existence is justified by the very fact that I exist.

Everyone who is born has a right to exist, no person more than any other. It doesn't require further justification.

That might not help you with your essay, but it is an argument. Perhaps you could fill it out and make an essay from it.

Answer 3

I think that you must first define what your belief system might be. At 14 you may not have a firm grasp on what you truly believe but I think you might have a leaning toward something.

A religious person, Christian, Muslim, or otherwise would say that they exist for the purpose of glorifying God.

A person who does not believe in God would probably say that this life is a one time shot and there is nothing but the big dirt nap and the purpose of ones existence is to take in all you can take in before you die.

Somewhere in between there are a whole host of belief's and subsequent reasoning for existence.

Personally I think that we are here to experience the experience. I think that knowledge is power (not to take over the world, just to live a good quality life that brings no harm to my fellow man or animals or our environment).

I think if you can define a little bit about your belief system then you should be able to write a good essay.

Good luck.

Answer 4

I find this to be a retarded topic. I think that if she or he is trying to inspire thought, this is a real dark way to do it. The definition of Justify is to absolve yourself from any responsibility. How can you justify your existence? I suppose you could lay the burden on your parents. But why should our existence on this earth be equated to being a burden at all?? It's just ludicrous really.

Answer 5

there is no justification for our existence on earth. As a college student, personally I would change the paper topic slightly when writing it. Write why we shouldn't exist your teacher will probably be impressed. You could argue that humans are environmental nightmares and have caused great harm to the environment, you could argue that we destroy many species of animals because of poaching, we fight wars that destroy countless human, animal, and plant lives. In nature everything has a function everything is both consumes food and provides food. Humans consume vast amounts of food and natural resources but what do we provide for nature? How does this planet benefit from human existence? I would ask your teacher if this is ok before you write it because I know that sometimes high school teachers are qutie picky.

Answer 6

I think, therefore, I am. And I wouldn't have it any other way.

Trying to justify one's existence on Earth is no less ridiculous than attempting to justify the existence of Earth, itself.

Answer 7

I justify my existence just by being

Answer 8

My existence on earth is justified becuase I am here making my mark just like my parents, and my parents parents did. They pass away but a part of them still lives on here on Earth because I am here and I have their blood going through my veins. I am the living memory of every person who lived before me and had a part of me being here in the first place.

Answer 9

lol, I like that little addendum.

Sorry to hit you with a dark truth, but there is none. There is no meaning or purpose to any existence, human or otherwise.

it's all a big accident or series of accidents.
