OMG....some dude actually approached me today and asked me to check out this club he's in at CSUF. He asked me this question too.....
I believe that I personally don't give a shiet how we got here. All that matters is that we are here now and we fucked ourselves pretty bad with the planet. The next thing we can do is be a lot more responsible with what we have left in terms of resources.
Purpose of life? Geez...how about I get my ass to a level where I would make enough money to support the activities that I enjoy and spend time with the people I love. I am not going to sit around and think about what the purpose of life is. Here's a concept....how about we live life? Don't you feel better when you achieve your goals? Set one up and do it. Why bother thinking if it's something you meant to do or not. We set our own destinies. At least that's the way I see it.
God? I do believe in a supreme being that created us all. Does that mean that I will follow the rules of the church? Hell no. I believe I was given free will to choose my own future. I was given the freedom to choose wether to live as a jerk, or live a life where I would be happy and treat others with respect.
Sorry, I just had to vent after a few people tried to preach shiet to me at school today.

man... I don't wanna be a descendant of a rat
although i was born in the year of the rat in the chinese calendar... Oh no!! we're all rats!!
NVS... don't be retarded. The people in power create our standards. If I had the power, I'd tell you all that it is no longer April 29th, but it is now June 46th in the year 40875. I could also tell you that a yard is as long as MY arm, not yours or anyone else's, but MINE. Or I could tell you that 1 kilogram is now equal to 6 pounds.
What this is coming down to is that you're a tool who lets himself be steered by nonsense, and falsities (sp?). Now go to bed and learn the truth... old men with arthritis... :slap:
edit: I believe if anyone "created" peopel, it wasn't any god. I'm sorta into the idea that this planet was "seeded", if you will by extra-terrestrials. I mean, all of a sudden, the spark of life. Anyone see Mission to Mars? That part made me feel better since there are other crazies like me around

i believe some entity created the universe...then the rest is history (evolution)
yeah... like in that movie and show Stargate. The egyptians thought that Go'uld aliens were their gods. There was one called Ra, and Osiris, and whatnot. Just relating entertainment to real possibilities. Aliens = gods? cool stuff. I'd always considered that a dirivitive (sp?) of the aliens seeding the planet theory, people saw them coming back or some such stuff, or evidence of them being there was left, and people assumed it was a deity of some sort. Or what if gods just meant to ancient civilizations, "beings not of this world" :dunno: but it's somethin to think about.
What the creationalist's are forgetting to mention is FAITH. You can poke holes and argue all you want but when it comes down to it, it's what you beleive in your heart that matters. I have faith that God exists and that's enough for me. I don't follow evolution because I believe that we were created by God. It is my faith that God exists that allows me to believe this.
Fatbooty, I have a question for you though,
Why do you keep spelling God as g-d? This really has nothing to do with anything but my curiosity.

Finally, there are plenty of people in the world who believe in the same G-d as Christians (Jews and Muslims) that don't share the same ideology of Jesus as the son of G-d and savior.

i don't think humans evolved from apes but humans ARE evolving. dig up some graves from 100 years ago and you will see that humans today are a bit taller than humans back then.

Let's say there are two worlds. Earth and Myrth. Earth has a low atmospheric pressure; Myrth a high one. Earthlings would be taller, but live shorter lives, but not drastically shorter lives. Myrthlings would be shorter, but live longer lives.

That is true, actually. We are much taller nowadays than then. From what I read it's because the ozone is slowly deteriorating and resulting in lower atmospheric pressure, allowing us to grow higher, but at the same time live shorter lives.

actually, we aren't living shorter, we're living longer. Average age of cro-magnon:35. It was like that up until the past two centuries. All the physical labor killed them off
