@bigdoggproblem saidThere is no reason why anybody is here, we are all just one big evolutionary and biological accident.
I must admit, I don't know why I am here.
Does anyone?
@bigdoggproblem saidThis forum or on this planet?
I must admit, I don't know why I am here.
@bigdoggproblem saidWhy does there need to be an answer to the question "Why?" If you really think there must be a "reason" that can and should be articulated, then maybe you should look into the various religions to offer you an "answer".
Does anyone?
Whatever the circumstances of our origin, and without any convincing information about a creator being having contacted us with an answer to the "Why?" question, I think life is a wonderful [albeit finite] opportunity to explore ourselves and our environment and to enable our successors to do the same. I'm loving it, ups and downs and all.
Asking the "Why?" question is all very well and good, but I personally don't think spending too much of this finite opportunity's timespan is the best way to proceed.
@indonesia-phil saidBut there could be.
There is no reason why anybody is here, we are all just one big evolutionary and biological accident.
My reasoning mind tells me so.
It is both a big opportunity, and terrifying prospect.

@suzianne saidAlternatively...

When drunk at a party and feeling horny...
@caissad4 saidSuzianne claims to have been visited by an angel, but I doubt that she will write a book about it as she is reluctant to even talk about it.
Why not be here .
Please don't tell us you have been visited by angel and you are writing a book about it .

@divegeester saidAtheists are arrogant.
Why would being an atheist preclude someone from wondering why they/we are here?
They usually do NOT concern themselves with such things.
Dog.....had a moment of weakness.
