I read somewhere -- "only when we lose everything that were free to do anything."

Maybe lifes purpose is for it to finish so we can move on to what's next.

well if we knew that we would probably be in a lot better of a place right now hah. But what I believe the lifes purpose is.. picture in a different realm of existence you as yourself now or however any way you see fit. Picture yourself either meditating like in the movie "The Fountain" or hooked into some machine like in the movie "The Matrix". Every individual body on the planet has one of these and this is your "God" in this illusion we call reality. maybe there is a supervisor that watches over the whole matrix that could be "God" as well. Anyways, in that realm of existence where our "God-selves" are might be the paradise that religions claim as the "Golden Kingdom". Well in order to live in that "Golden Kingdom" we have to be put through a full on virtually realistic program similar to an online MMORPG. Well the purpose of Life if you look at it like this is really quite clear. We have to become sinless. we have to defeat all of our own personal problems and become the enlightened illuminous beings that we are destined to become. Meaning once we defeat our demons we move onto another level an face new challenges. Maybe you'll come back as a sentient being on a different planet. Or maybe come back to this planet as a different creature. Regardless no matter what form of life you are in there are many lessons to be learned. I believe that once we reach the end or once we reach a certain point in this game of Life and Lessons we may fully become our "God-selves" and live in the "Golden Kingdom" with the other enlightened beings. heh, since there may not be one absolutely correct answer and since we may never know then as of now it is all a matter of opinion so who has the best most seemingly logical/possible idea?

This question is like a rubber ball that keeps bouncing back!

There are probably only two purposes to life; the prime one is that of being a witness to this immaculate conception of our global existence. We have this creative power or maker whom the religious call God and who has been instrumental in the creation of this Garden Of Eden in which we all reside. Why create such a beautiful construct without having others to appreciate it? This then is why we are here, to be witnesses to creation.

The secondary purpose is the perpetuation of the species so that the beauty before our eyes can be witnessed by others.

I hope this widens your view.
