Just curious....

What is the meaning of life?
Why am I here?
Where did I come from?
What is the nature of reality?
What is the purpose of life?
What is the value of life?

Anyone know?
I mean even in Futurama, suicide is .25c and to make a local phone call in NNYC, it costs .50c.
weird huh?

I don't believe that there is a master plan MADDuck. Life has as much value as someone decides.

In that case on to more serious matters I guess.
1. None
2. Naught
3. Nowhere
4. Mu
5. Undefined
6. Undefined

Nothing is true, all is permitted. Truth and falsity are wed.

You are free - go now and take up the burden of godhood.

Before you take on the burden of Godhood get a good nights rest, try some lucid dreaming. Flying can be therapeutic.

I think of life as the battle against eventual entropy. Are u looking for some higher purpose/meaning?

That's it MADDuck, one more cracker comment and I round up the Ghost of George Wallace. Tell me where you see intent in the Universe. What is your hurry anyway? When th Sun burns out in 14 Billion years, it should be a hell of a show, stick around.

YES. I want a higher purpose.
Higher than born alone, live alone, die alone.

Am I asking for too much?

Actually, many systems of philosophy would say yes, you are.
