What do you think the meaning of life is?

[gooblet]

There is of course religion, but I'm talking about philosophical views. Personally I believe in an absurdism way of life. I think that in the end there will be nothing so fuck life and do whatever. What are y'all's opinions?

The meaning of life is to experience suffering so that the soul can evolve. That's what I've been told.

It depends. There are universal, natural, biological, philosophical, religious, and individual viewpoints. Should we differentiate from meaning from purpose? How does anyone define a meaning? I can give answers for each of these viewpoints yet others still might conclude something else entirely. We give our own life its meaning. Though that does not mean this is the meaning of life. I think it's a question in futility.

Nothing. There can't be a point to this. Recently a video was going around of a young Christian women and her children in Syria, being rounded up. They were all hung. What's the meaning in that? Be born just to suffer? It makes no sense. I think of my problems as small in comparison, but so much of my life has been ruined because of some damn mental health issues I certainly never asked for. Why are people made such a way? Why are some capable of atrocities? Im not doing well at the moment so im lashing out some but there can be no meaning in life when some suffer so senselessly.
