What is the purpose of being on earth?

Question: What is the purpose of being on earth!?

This is a question I have to answer for english class!. Truthfully, I don't know what my purpse is!. I think that the rest of my life I will have to search for it!.

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

The purpose of life!? or of being on Earth!?

Life would suck if you were just floating aimlessly through empty space!.

The purpose of life is to discover the purpose of life!.

Doug!.!.!. in a truly random universe all things must happen/exist!?

Then you have to concede that purpose and possibly even a deity must exist!.!.!. its a natural consequence of random, order-less chance!.

If they dont exist then there is some structure!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

If you have time, read some Neale Donal Walsch or Jack Canfield books!.

Otherwise, the answer to the purpose of being on earth is already in your question!.

BEING - You are here to be the greatest version of the grandest vision of you that you can become!.

You don't search for it as if it is something you need to find!.

You live it, every moment, every nanosecond, you just are!. You just be!. So don't participate in a memory of yesterday or a hope for tomorrow, BE present in NOW 100% and your purpose is fulfilling itself as you are called on at every moment to BE true to your innermost self!. Now that is a purpose, don't you think!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Hi Gwarshness, this is such an interesting question in so many ways!. Purpose is a funny word to use in this case!. It suggests a great plan!. I believe that our purpose is not much different than the propose of any other organism on this planet!. To survive, to expand our population there by increasing our chances of survival!. I know man has huge development and invention but who stands looking at these great achievements!? Just man I'm afraid, other species are not aware or recognize and of these achievements!. So I submit Survival!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I believe the purpose for being on "earth" is to learn all the necessary lessons in our human form so we can advance one day to a higher spiritual plane!.
But with the way the question is worded, you could answer this in a variety of ways!. One as simply as human life is not compatible on any other planets thus far!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

You proceed from a very questionable assumption!.

Before you start asking 'what is our purpose', you would be wise to first convince me that there is a logical need for us to -have- a purpose!. Any other predicate is flawed due to the inescapable theological bias it engenders!. (And in 62 years, no one has been able to convince me otherwise ?)!.

And remember that, in a system that is truly random and infinite, all things are not only possible, they -must- exist!. If they don't, it implies some sort of 'structure' or 'order' which the fabric of reality simply does not have!.
