This is a simple one:

1: to enjoy the fact that we are (or are we really?)

2:nope!

3:my guess is that it`s a dynamic one. Ok, so this one is more blurry but just apply the answer according to your taste

There you go...no reason to ponder anymore.

<i>1.Why are we here?</i>

I can't say for certain, but my guess is that we are here for the highs and lows of the ride

<i>2.Is there a perpose?</i>

See the above answer.

<i>3.Is the future written?</i>

The past is written. Maybe the same is true for the future. We just haven't read that far ahead in the story yet.

<b>Why are we here?</b>

To discuss science?

1.Why are we here?
To evolve and mutate, just like the whole Universe does naturally. We simply follow the rules of the Universe.

2.Is there a perpose?
Probably, but it's totally irrelevant to us. It's not our purpose, it's something elses. We are like the nerve endings of let's say the fingers of the Universe, we can no more know our purpose than can cells in a shin bone know of the existence of fingers.

3.Is the future writen?
We make our future. The state of the world merely reflects mans desires, wishes and actions. Any moment in time represents a window on an evolutionary path.

Re: Why Are We Here?

Because you are here.

My two cents:

1.Why are we here?
TO BE HAPPY


2.Is there a perpose?
TO APPRECIATE HARMONY IN CHAOS

3.Is the future writen?
YES, Our galaxy will get sucked into the blackhole at the centre. We will lose our comfort zone from our Sun and bla bla bla....

Why are we here?
Because some primate in Africa evolved into Homo sapiens and left. Because the dinosaurs went extinct, making mammals the superior phylum. Because some antient fish left the water to walk on land. Because the amino acids in the primordial soup assembled to make organic life. Because a cloud of space dust balled up to make Earth. Because a star exploded. Ultimately, because of the Big Bang.

Is there a purpose?
No, but that doesn't mean we can't make one for ourselves.

Is the future written?
Certain things are inevitable. The sun will expand as it ages and swallow Earth, rendering it uninhabitable. But for the most part, there may be a general direction in which we are headed, but we have the willpower to change that.

1.Why are we here?
We all have access to internet and like discussions

2.Is there a perpose?
Of course - to enjoy our time

3.Is the future writen?
No, we archieve only the past posts to keep an element of surprise

[path]

Now I am here to give my children the best upbringing I can. That is the cake the rest is egoist icing upon it

[Dreamwalker]

I am here to die, the rest is just coincidence.
