Why do we exist?

i work hard every day but i still ask myself the same question.

Well, your mum and dad had some sex.
Nine months later, POW, there you were.
This is true for most people, parents had sex, and then they were born. It's almost universal, you might say.

>Why do we exist?
because the 2 people you call parents, felt empty and unfulfilled
so they decided to create a human pet to keep them busy
and now you are feeling that same emptiness

no particular reason, we just do.

it's what we make of it, to help ourselves and the ones around us storm through it. if we don't exist, then what do we have? nothing, at least we have something

Self sustain. I don't know how the first step was made to create organisms, but every step after that is just to keep organisms going. We, as species must keep on populating and populating.

Pretty boring right?

For me, the idea of life is to make it enjoyable for yourself. Do wild things, experience as much as you can. The more you do the same thing, the more of your life will be monotone, and forgotten as soon as you're done with it. I've spent over 11 years playing games now and I don't have enough memories of them to last me a single day. Wasted years. However, I do remember unique occasions, like catching dinner with long lost friends, going to clubs and dancing like no tomorrow, fun evenings spent playing board games or tabletops. Please, don't waste your life on monotone things

I had to clean that shit up somewhat

Obsessive compulsive a bit?

We are The Universe experiencing it's self. If you aren't enjoying the ride, KYS and return the chemicals to the environment. Someone else will enjoy eating the food you don't, or living in your home, or driving your car. When you die can I have your stuff?

Yea sure I don’t care. You can take over my 2 mortgages too

I want to grow my Soul.

We exist for ourselves. How you wish to spend that time is up to you.

My guess would be largely to play out predertimined criteria to an end... All life is an exercise in adaption and success. And if you consider DNA as a higher lifeform and all life as its various tests and forrays into environments. Then man is Jus one data point that has continued to produce data, exponentially in fact... That would make the answer that it's, meaning us, an interesting data set. But then youd ask why and I'd say why not. Matter in this incarnation will end and may exist only once.

But this is missing pieces of a more interconnected reason as to how we exist. And how is a better question. why seems to have a Lil philosophy or hope for some meaning. That slants every answer you might find

The first mortgage was a loan to own the house. The second one was debt consolidation? You ran up your credit cards to buy frivolous junk that I doubt you can account for. Poor planning and instant gratification isn't The Universe's problem. Quit buying stuff on credit because you've proven you can't dicipline yourself to pay off the bill when they are due. Deficit spending only works for the government because those old people like Bernie Sanders will be dead when the bill comes due.

lolis

Spoken like a life addict. The Buddhists say we are stuck here because addictions to things and sex. Our souls are junkies

All religions preach their brand of life after death. I'm 58, and generally enjoy life so if that makes me a "life junkie", then I guess so. Sort of disappointed we haven't figured out how to digitize the Soul. Or built retirement home in orbit or on the moon.This younger generation isn't bringing on The Singularity quick enough. I'm smart enough to survive a zombie apocalypse, but old age is catching up.

It'd be more accurate to say life with death as the two are intertwined eternally. But yea i wouldn't mind banging some digital hookers for a thousand years

I think the better question is:

does it matter?

Becaus you touch yourself at night.

you exist now to exist now

I won't be doing that any time soon, you bleeding heart irrational faggot.

existence itself is scary

No reason for things to exist other than the fact that things that are capable of existing tend to do so, things that are better at existing exist more frequently.

It was an inevitability of enthalpy, entropy, and physics.

We exist because our fathers couldn't keep it in their pants. The majority of us are accidental births - our parents doing the 'right thing' in their view. That's pretty much it...

We aren't our bodies, but the experiences we perceive through them. Cybernetics is moving right along. Computational power getting more compact and batteries better. There's that tricky moment of Transcendence crossing over from meat to metal, but we're already developing the mindset for it. Digital life is inevitable, assuming medical science doesn't keep pace and give s satisfactory life extension. I was born too late to enjoy it, but my grandkids may.

live a life on earth
which is a 'timeless rite of passage' or 'ancient ritual' every soul's got to go through like it always was and will always be
a tradition too ancient and important in order for us to let go of
and once we die we will all be equally surprised now that we've beaten the odds and get to live once more in the afterlife but without the worldly troubles

so basically it's a man's quest to a loli

youll figure it out when you die.

look at that other response to this. what a sad, selfish and lost person.

>and get to live once more in the afterlife but without the worldly troubles
So you drank the KoolAid? Which version of "The Bible" do you follow? King James? Catholic? Learned to read Aramaic or Yiddish so you could get the "true" version? What ever keeps you in line. Except you expect others to follow the rules while you forgive yourself for your sins? I get Morality, but quit with the proselytizing. No one is going to convert for your pathetic preaching of the promise of an afterlife.

You can't pull humans out of the myriad of species and ask why they exist. If you follow the logic I exist because my parents fucked to its end it goes back through time to proto life the you could keep going back technically to the big bang. Which is true I guess

out of all the things in the world to be butthurt about why christians?

Did religion bring you to this world? No, only the way of things did. Similarly there is no need for religion when it comes to taking you to the next world. Just the way of things is enough. Once you die you'll naturally move on. But doesn't mean your consciousness is what you seem to think it is as it's eternal. You are not your body, padawan.

You may be right user. But I doubt that as much as I doubt the pearly gate theory.

To protect Trump from getting in trouble.

You first bitch

Social clubs. They thump others with their book of rules, but tend to do as they please. Sanctimonious bunch of liars and cheats. Crowley had it right,"Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law ". In acting as a human I am fulfilling my purpose. I tend towards a Stoic lifestyle which predates Christianity.

No I own 2 houses. One of them I’m renting out and wish I didn’t have it

But I did get a huge insurance payout for the roof and damages to my property so its really nice now

Agnosticism in a scientific age ought to be a valid option. "What church do you belong to?" shouldn't be a reason to ostracize a person if they answer other that expected.

Good larp poorfag

I'm convinced humans are a horrible and ghastly evolutionary accident. We shouldn't be here.

Ugh, renters are THE WORST. When I got too old to be a carpenter, I down graded to handyman. I know all about every system that makes a house to do most any repair big or small. Worked for a long while doing punch outs for a guy that owns 30 residential and commercial properties. Renters suck because at the end they think they owe some evil to the person that let them stay in their building for money. Sell that rental property and do improvement on your home, or drop a chunk and get closer to paying off your loan.

Well why do you think that

To evolve.

Conciousness is the computer

To act as a conduit for perception and experience for a cosmic divinity that is incapable of doing so individually.

Please elaborate user

This doesn't really answer why, magic aside, then your just swapping genetic will with divine will. Why bother exist in matter if you were cosmic

Meh. Circular logic. Gawd is so powerful he can't experience The Universe He created, so He made us lesser beings to look through our eyes...
What flavor was your KoolAid?

humans are pattern finding machines, our brains are wired to find patterns in everything (that's why we keep seeing faces in toast and stuff)

We are at a natural disadvantage when it comes to facing the meaninglessness of existence. It's the most important thing to ever happen to us but we're the only one's who care

Well, I guess i'm failing at life then.

some one decided to fuck some one else and nut deep

Universal wavefunction and the boundary conditions of the universe.

Your soul is an infinitesimal fraction of one great cosmic soul - splintered throughout the universe in many forms on many worlds. Your purpose is to feed the greater whole with your subjective experience that is unique only to you and not to an all encompassing sentience.

stop working and start living, then you will know the answer the oPs question

Prove it.

I don't need to. You already know it.

>infinitesimal fraction
so you saying its negligible?

Why should there need to be a reason for our existence?

nobody knows, but these hippies here think they do

but it's fun to fantasize all the same

because OP needs to feel special

I already know it sounds like bullshit.

Wouldnt the most important thing to happen to a meaning finding machine be being able to answer ops question. Full meaning/all patterns

Gawd, you're so completely full of shit that it's almost laughable. Enjoy your grandiose delusions.

yes he is one of the few in this thread that gets it right lol... enjoy your miserable life

Right. The problem is that the 'answer' to OPs question is that there is no intrinsic reason for us to exist. We just do.

*yet*

everything has a meaning because everything is composed of information

No.

mom, drugs, dad, you

No though.

What meaning is there in a vacuum

Just because it could and the big bang happened already almost an infinite time so one of those infinite times it WOULD happen. Because evolution was just possible under the right conditions.

There is no reason or something. It just happened.

Why do bananas fit perfectly in your hand then?

>Checkm8 fag

We exist to expand our reach into the unknown universe, gathering help of other species and knowledge to answer the question of why we are alive. However Homo sapiens need to pass a crucial step of acknowledging that all human as the same, thus when time comes we must fight a stronger advisory that will either unite us or kill all humans. Racism and religion are the two things that hinder progress

That is supposed to be a joke answer to the meaning of life, not why we exist
Retard

People like you are the problem

Ask your parents

He said we, not me. You brainlet

My parents created me to carry on the family business what's your purpose?

I don’t pretend to have one
I didn’t choose to be born, nor did i choose to have grown into an abusive psychotic family that fucked my life over
No i’m not exaggerating or trying to play the victim
No I won’t elaborate on what i just said

Life is pointless and everyone just follow blindly the status quo without ever questioning shit and have the fucking media brainwash them into telling them how they should think and live their life

There is something way more sinister than what we’re served on a daily basis that holds all of this bullshit together
Only thing i can say is you have 2 paths to follow
>the one that everyone follows by default
Or
>your own individual and spiritual one
I’m not trying to imply any religious bullshit but i’ll keep it simple; truth is tranger than fiction

Why do we exist is such a shit question, you’re only inviting the profound desperate types to project their own justifications on to us all usually through philosophy. We just exist, you could dedicate the rest of your life to finding out why we exist but either way your life is finite, it matters cause it ends and we exist now because one day we wont, life implies death. Have fun, help the idiots. Rinse and repeat.

woah.. powerful

you got a better one? let's hear then, eh.

because at some level our current form was a good survival strategy.

I me we, you me, not he.

And here is an example of the cancer that needs to be purged. Ignore agents-of-destruction like these. They lose their shit when they aren't getting bites

I’m not gonna pretend like i have the answer as to why life(or to push things further; the simulation) came to be
The only way to know is to hack into reality and go as far as you can go either by scientific means for maximum rational/concrete/tangible proofs
Or by entheogens for individual and personal epiphanies that leads to breakthroughs thru intuition/revelations
But entheogens are really kinda like you acting as a receiver
You have to set your frequency to the one that transmits the ultimate truth but such endeavor is as hard(also higher percent of chance to be misled) if not harder then those CERN scientists trying to unravel the mysteries of the universe

Your understanding is limited to what is constantly broadcasted to you on a highly superficial level so this whole text is not going to make any chance and i’m ready to bet my whole nutsacks either you or a bunch of retards will call me a schizo

>this whole text is not going to make any chance
Meant sense, not chance

tl;dr

All life has the same purpose. To reproduce itself, alter itself through natural selection and continually adapt to it's environment. To stay alive through changing conditions. "We" are no different. There is no higher purpose besides the one you might choose for yourself.

Because our parents had sex.

tl;dr
This reality is not what it seems and we’re constantly bombarded with misinformation/disinformation tailored to the human condition to keep us enslaved to this material realm while the elite are keeping all the good stuff and knowledge against us
Yeah, i barely eat nowadays because my appetite is non existent

You can't prove it didn't.

There is no why you fucking brainlet. user was trying to illustrate that by his example. There is no metaphysical "why" you gotta figure that shit out for yourself. The only reason anything exists is because their ancestors reproduced.
Why did stuff start reproducing? Again, there is no answer to that metaphysical why.

Your right truth is tangier than fiction

>Why do we exist?
I don't think so, that sounds like a present tense question to me.

I did a fuckload of DMT and met an entity that described itself as the all-consciousness

I can hardly remember what it said but it sounded to me like it's basically the source of all conscious thought, no matter how small or faint it might seem to us and it's here because it wants to be. It's like a child playing in a sandbox. We're just the little dolls.

Dumbass, how is why.

Thats my fetish

Imagine.
Just imagine the number of people who came up with this very question.
Why.
Why are we here. Why. The why question implies a goal. Why is a word that occured in multiple languages to go forward, in this direction. Which one ? The one. Why ? Because it will delivery your needed products. Food, water, thus prosperity. Imagine the why word for mobile bacterias. They carry lipo-proteins on their outer membranes which recognize their assimilable chemical products, their food, like amino acids, proteins and carbohydrates. The more they are concentrated, the more the bacteria will move to get them. This is the why word for bacterias, chemiotactism, plain and simple. Can we go further ? A rock for exemple ? Why does it gain mass ? Why in the outer space, rocks agglomerate to form bigger entities ? Is gravitation the natural why word for rocks ? Nietzsche would call it the will of power. Feynman said that it's how it is. Why might be a flawed question, a human question. Things are just how they are. Call it the creation or the universe, you can see it all, you can feel it right now, the manifold of God's work, explaining it is futile. You can try. You will never success.

No, shut up.

You think you’re blowing my mind with this plausible theory? Even tho it might be possible, i think it might be one piece of the puzzle among a fuckton more connecting the dots to pinpoint how reality as we experience it came to be and what’s beyond
Let’s say we finally discover we’re part of a “program”(aka the simulation) inside a computer(what is regulating the simulation)
Then... are there more than one “computer”? Is there a network connecting them? Who is behind the screen and typing commands?
Who created that source?

I think aliens are just a bunch of automated bits of preprogrammed information that was necessarily interjected to help our progress for fuck knows what reasons

We’ll never know for sure but in comparison, we’re a bunch of fart particles in the grander scheme of things

Why should there be a reason?

Universe creates itself somehow, life somehow develops. Fucking long ass time later super fucking complex beings going around troubling themselves with a redundant question in this day in age when we cant even decide on basic fucking things

This

So, we're the aliens on this planet and our parents simply abandoned us? Doesn't seem plausible, our dba is too similar to a lot of species here.

They might've banged our ancestors

we exist to enjoy our time and make most of it

We are here to serve G-d.

Yeah, and mainstream scientists dare labeling “junk DNA” to what they cannot seem to explain that is part of our DNA and how did those codes/bits of information “magically” connected themselves to our strands for no feasons and are there just because reasons?
Liar liar pants on fire

Are you talking about telomeres? Because thats just replicated dna for when our cells divide

Ok, and they got some mutating super sperm that can automatically crossbreed? Now that's an idea I can get behind.

Life is a your one universe vacation. Then you go back to being nothing for 100 billion years until the universe dies and starts again. Then you have another vacation, because that shit is a long ass time and you kinda need a vaca after that.

Actually, no.

Lol and all powerful being needs lesser forms to serve him. What is god autistic?

Telomeres doesn’t comprises all what scientists has labeled as “junk DNA” besides, i take anything from the “mainstream science community” with a grain of sand
They are heavily regulated by governments therefore, you are required to work inside of their scientific matrix
How many palaeontologists, archeologists, anthropologists, etc... have pushed the boundaries of our mainstream conditioning backed with scientific proof by applying the scientific method? There’s your answer
Shill Nye the faggot guy, black science man and that Japanese futurist aren’t pushed at the forefront as authorities on the matter for nothing
Carl Sagan was one of the mainstream scientists/cosmologist that I respect for a plethora of reasons but he had to work within the frames of our overlords

Maybe our universe's god is like a retard god and we're in his messy and indecipherable playpen.

Well if you dont trust scientists why are you quoting them, and basing your original argument off of what they said about junk DNA

Would explain the platypus

So if you go to the very very very very very very first second of something's beginning, what was there the minute before that? I don't see how there could always have been something.

Not always. "Why" asks for a reason, "how" asks for a cause or instructions.

Working, we are maded for work

Idiot. How asks for a cause. A cause is the why for an effect.

Right, my bad.

They’re like the fastfood strain of scientists
Not trying to say they are shit, just that they are heavily regulated and for one finding to be accepted tto be broadcasted for the masses, they go thru peer reviewing(which isn’t the problem) but kinda like.. if you work in a company and are really competent amd hardworking, if you don’t lick your boss’ ass, your boss is going to make sure that anyone aboves you give you a hard time cause you are deviating from your “role” that they arbitrarily assigned to you

Is this a good enough analogy?

Thats a deep question, maybe you are shallow and just feel to use it as some sort of ploy for detracting from your sadness. You know, been there summer child. But I understand it now, I understand there are a variety of things that contend to be the answer. The answer is just a number in a long long line. People want it to be perfect for them, there is no perfect answer for anybody. So if the answer is not good enough, it is gone. Reason being it is replaced. It like you can be subject to complete obseletion and what is worse than that, well being chosen is worse. Being perfect and all too secure, just to be wiped off the board because that is deep down what the meaning of existence is, to be the elite, the people who choose who lives and die. The people who decide whos number is really up. And why would that happen you ask, because its a message down the chain what is gonna be fucked with aint gonna be those in true power. You are simply filling a position that is for the monitoring of a larger design. We all have a tag and that tag has a date, if you dont meet the grade you dont get the happy ending, because its simply too good for you. Like it was too good for Snoke.

so you think.

Life doesn’t seem real, how did the entire universe originate from a 1 dimensional point in the middle of nothing.
Yet, I believe that we’re living on a point on and infinitely linear progression (perhaps even circular) which may mean that everybody on earth has existed previous iterations of the universe.
Another whacky theory that I’ve been thinking of is that we could be a virus inside an incomprehensibly large and complex being, planets being cells, their ‘DNA’ being a projection of the ‘big bang’. Cosmic expansion is growth of this being and nebula being the creation of new cells. Of course all we know about the universe is from human kind’s perspective, you really have to put your mind somewhere else to start making sense of this theory, if anybody can elaborate- feel free to.

We are godlike beings who educate ourselves by choosing to live as mortal beings so we know what it's like to have a limited, suffering existence. When we have learned enough, we break the cycle of birth and rebirth and attain true enlightenment.

Our true form is dark matter.

we’re the godly to only those below us. in the scale of things, we are as insignificant as a unicellular organism. in the great scheme of things, we’re nothing.

everything we know is a defined as a relation to something else. In mathematics the first thing we learn is that you can't define every subject (trivial), so we assume crap to start relations from. The point I am trying to make is that all of our concepts are always a subjective construction. There is no single universal truths of reality, and so it is up to you to decide what you would like them to be, and insure that your ideas get immortalized (by passing on dna, writing them down, or other means). or you can just fap and die to each their own

>everything we know is a defined as a relation to something else
Relative - Realite - Reality - Real

you understand the true meaning of life. ‘life is what you make it’ is the dumbed down way of putting it. our minds are just reflections of how we want to see the universe and each has their own ways of defining, remembering, etc which is also why many people have different abilities.
also, pretty much string theory.
