Question:Why?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Why?

Dude, where's my car?

What is the meaning of life ??

what came first. the chicken or the egg.

What's this life for?

karma!?!?!

Where does the Universe end and if it does end, what's on the other side???

Well, every question can be answered by science.

Even the basics- why are we here, how did we evolve into this, why are so we attracted to others and not to some, even why do we fall in love. These and everything likewise can be proven by science.

But the one thing that stumps us is why people turn out like they do... for example- Hitler- people who would have gone through his same lifestyle might have ended up differently, you know? And its hard to answer because you can never expose a person to EXACTLY the same situation and have them turn out the same because 1)- people and their lives can not be duplicated and assumption is useless in this field and 2) we might be affected from our birth signs, our religions, misc. forces like people in our lives, education, jobs, genes, ect.

So basically, what makes people decide to use their power for good or evil?

what is love?
does God really exist?
how did the universe created?

What causes consciousness or mental events.

Put simply why do we believe we exist?

The only true question.The question that can only be answered by the person asking the question. "Whats the meaning of life?"

Be careful, because once the answer is given the question is answered

If we are born for some purpose then why we usually are unable to even discover that purpose..

i think this has to do with the existence of God...

Is there a God?....

There are lots of questions from philosophers and skeptics alike challenging the existence of God the Almighty....The irony of this is even some believers doubt the Lord because they believe that if there is a God, there shouldnt be problems and miseries in life and that the world will be at peace with one another...This belief is based on what one feels, sees and hear and from these facts alone one can conclude the non-existent of a Superior Being...

But that is not the case...

isnt it Where did Humans really come from?

There is not an answer to everything.

where did my other sock go?

Try to ask yourself:" WHO AM I?" This is one of philosophy's greatest unanswered question.

Why are men and women so different. Why can't they understand eachother?

how can there be an endto anything like the universe
