that we are brought in this world to have fun and do what pleases us?
if yes when does our freedom stop, if ever? do we have the right to hurt someone in order to have fun?
if not what is your opinion?

Well, I do not think that having fun is the PURPOSE for us being here. Certainly it is everyone's right to have fun, but not if we are hurting others.......because then you are restricting someone else's fun! Whatever the reason that we were brought into this world, we have to co-exist and look out for each other. If we don't, we are nothing more than wild animals.

No. We are brought into this world to make it a better place for the next generation. Nothing wrong with having fun along the way, but our fun must be sustainable. Pleasing ourselves at the expense of others in the present day, or others in the future is a recipe for the demise of the human race. No species exists for the purpose of self-annihilation.

God has a purpose for your life.
If it is wrong to have fun and do what pleases then Jesus is a sinner because His first miracle was to make wine from water at a marriage feast.
True freedom begins the moment you make a decision to follow Jesus.
We should try never to hurt people except in self defense.

no, we not here just for have fun this world is not a city of amusement we here to pursuit of the ideal and perfect. only the animals hurt in order to have fun
but the human have fun of course but as a human. we have fun to remember that there is people suffering in this world who are deprived of the comfort then the fun will be useful . but have fun just for have fun is bad, we do not live in this world to satisfy our desires, but we live for ideals. your freedom end at the beginning of the freedom of others.

You must be like 12 or something. Because if you were an adult or even halfway there you would know that no one is really free and no one is on this earth to have fun... it's just stupid to have hat mentality... of course with the exception of you being a kid.

wow!!!... now you are getting really serious!!!....
I believe we are brought in this world to live in harmony with ourselves, the environment , the people. If this can be done with fun, so much the better.
If we hurt people or anything, harmony is lost.

Let me share with you the insights of Rick Warren, author of "Purpose Driven Life".
What is the purpose of life?
"In a nutshell, life is preparation for eternity. We were made to last forever, and God wants us to be with Him in heaven.
...Life is the warm-up act - the dress rehearsal. God wants us to practice on earth what we will do forever in eternity.
...We were made by God and for God, and until you figure that out, life isn't going to make sense.
...God didn't put us on earth just to fulfill a to-do list. He's more interested in what we are than what we do. That's why we're called human beings, not human doings.
Happy moments, PRAISE GOD.
Difficult moments, SEEK GOD.
Quiet moments, WORSHIP GOD.
Painful moments, TRUST GOD.
Every moment, THANK GOD."

Firstly.... yes I think.
Secondly.... no, we aren't here to have fun. We're not here "for" anything, though Nature rather relies on us breeding a whole lot.
Thirdly... our freedom doesn't exist at all until we die. Life is incarceration.

“Life is a process of self-sustaining and self-generated action.”
“…the basic premise of the Founding Fathers was man's right to his own life, to his own liberty, to the pursuit of his own happiness—which means: man's right to exist for his own sake, neither sacrificing himself to others nor sacrificing others to himself; and that the political implementation of this right is a society where men deal with one another as traders, by voluntary exchange to mutual benefit.”
"The concept of a "right" pertains only to action—specifically, to freedom of action. It means freedom from physical compulsion, coercion or interference by other men.
"Thus, for every individual, a right is the moral sanction of a positive—of his freedom to act on his own judgment, for his own goals, by his own voluntary, un-coerced choice. As to his neighbors, his rights impose no obligations on them except of a negative kind: to abstain from violating his rights."
