If the meaning of life is to have kids why not...?

If the meaning of life is to have kids why not just donate sperm to sperm banks a lot so you get to have lots of kids and basically win at life? Or if the meaning is to have kids why not go impregnate a lot of different girls extending your family tree?

    This is not "THE" meaning of life -but only a part of it. Unfortunately, if you internalize and totally buy into Darwinian concepts this may seem to be the case since survival of the species is the only criterion and reason for existence (and the substrate for all human endeavor). But, then, you don't have to buy into this notion.

    Anyone can do that. But like the woman's job is to look for a secure and supportive "nest" to hatch her eggs, you just can't impregnate and leave it up to the woman to raise kids. Having kids is "having" kids.

    Who said having kids was the meaning to life? Did you come up with that all by yourself? You're wrong. Life is much more complicated than that. Life is not a contest to win or lose. It's a lifetime of experience and good works. Are you soulless?

    Even animals are more responsible. Human beings want to avoid responsibility and keep only the enjoyment (sex). That is why all these nonsense of birth control pills and abortions. We have became lower and worse than animals.

    This is hilarious! Winning at life....

    Society says to reproduce, our primal instincts/urges says to propagate.

    No one knows what the meaning of life is, even if there were, it probably varies on an individual basis.

    The love these kids receive is the meaning of life and not who punctured what egg!
