No! I believe there is conscious purpose to life ( which as we know it here on Earth seems very rare) and I believe we humans, through science, are beginning to understand it. The science we discovered in the twentieth century seems to imply the universe is conscious, at least in a philosophical sense. The formulation of quantum physics and the experiments (started by the EPR thought experiment) in the late 20th century, which establihed as fact "quantum entanglement" and "non-locality" are what has lead most non skeptical physicists to this idea. Don't take my word for it; look up "quantum entanglement" and "non-locality" in Yahoo! web search or get a copy of the following books at your library.
Robert Nadeau and Menas Kafatos;"The non-local universe; the new physics and matters of the mind"; Oxford Univ. Press. N.Y. NY,1999, pp. 5, 197-198 in particular.
Amir D. Aczel; "Entanglement; the greatest mystery in physics."; Four walls, eight windows, N.Y. NY, 2001, pp 249-253 in particular.
Brian Clegg; "The God Effect, quantum entanglement, sciences strangest phenomenon."; St. Martin's Press, N.Y. NY, 2006,pp 243-244 in particular.
Non locality is the fact that something done to one of two entangled particles seperated by great distances in space-time is immediately "sensed" by the other particle so that it changes to maintain the physics of the entanglement. I understand this as both particles are embedded in a matrix of consciousnes which extends to "fill" the entire universe. Others understand it differently.
Good luck in your purpose, good mental health, peace and love!

We really don't have an absolute refrence frame, one point that remains absolutely stationary, so in a way we are lost in space.
If you consider the inner space of our minds we can be lost there also. Sometimes we feel like an answer is somewhere in our minds, buy yet search as hard as we can often we don't find it.

Depends on what you mean by that, but yes to some extent we are on a remote planet somewhere in space.

Probably not lost. It seems for something to be lost it has to exist. No other alien civilization know that we exist, therfore we can't be lost.

Yes we always have.
Why do we have religion?
We are looking for a endless search for god.
If we come from a star so which star do we belong?
