Life could not and would not exist without a purpose!?

Yes. There is a purpose behind everything.

The real purpose of life is to inquire about the absolute truth i.e. attainment of perfection.

Some other philosophers feel that the purpose of life is to (1) try to lead a righteous life; (2) earn, but not at the cost of others. Earn by fair methods without disturbing the chances of other weaker sections of society. Don't adopt foul methods and aggrandize; (3) enjoy life within the permissible limits. Don't violate the social laws, natural laws or universal laws. And finally (4) try to liberate your own self from all bondage.

Reality is stranger than fiction, There is no purpose to life. Go and look out in the ocean, the jungle, the desert, isolated islands with people living on it. You will find in each area no purpose for this madness, everything that exists today is nothing but a mere experience.

Take a look at your hands, and many other physical aspects of your body now try to think why can't I really see who I am, as I am in a mere existence. You can't find this in a mirror, a mirror is nothing but a image, but what defines you is experience. You can't find experience it comes and goes as it pleases like walking and learning to ride a bike.

Argumentum ad Incredulum.

Just because you personally find it unbelievable that life could exist without a purpose does not mean reality has to conform to your biases.

because look at or world you think god is saving people when 21000 people die a day from starvation? your gunna dedicate your life to something you cant prove exists WORSHIPING it like a brainwashed north Korean? OH YEA BRO THERE ARE CURRENTLY 5000 GODS BEING WORSHIPED ON EARTH BUT DONT WORRY ONLY URS IS THE CORRECT ONE, Im atheist and don't give a crap what you believe in its your own life but religion in my mind is really retarded and ***** up our world, you think if the bible was just written today any one would believe that crap?? and also the common logic in it, one god creating everything, then who created his creator and his creators creator? doesn't make any sense, you gotta look at it with an open mind tho go ahead and believe what you want but have fun wasting your life believing in bullshit so you feel better in your mind that you will got to heaven and I will burn in hell forever, hahahahahahah **** that ****, im out

So according to your theory the mass murderers, rapists and so on are here for a purpose?

I do hope you are really young and have a lot of education still ahead of you since you seem to lack even a basic understanding of reality!

Well on a larger scale, life is so short and spontaneous compared to the age of the universe, that in the long run, it doesn't affect on a large scale in any significant way whatsoever.

And yet you couldn't provide the slightest "proof" in the question of course.

Put it this way, if you had any logic, or credible, verifiable evidence to support the supposed existence of ANY god being, you wouldn't be hiding it, you'd be making your millions by telling everyone.

Keep trying though.

"You haven't even heard what I had to say"

So say it.

For some reason that's too much to ask, can't imagine why.

"What I have to say is too much for you to hear on this yahoo page"

I'm willing to bet good money that its one of the following:

A) ridiculous

B) easy to pull apart

C) been heard and deconstructed a thousand times before

So I'd check google before you think your "proof" is unique or reasonable.

"That would give the universe an excuse to make us"

The universe is not sentient, it doesn't need an "excuse" to make us, any more than a rock needs an excuse to fall to the ground.

Please be a troll, not someone who seems desperate to embarrass themselves.

"I didn't say I could prove the God of anything existed, I said I could prove a God!"

So you aren't trying to prove a god exists?

Then why do you want to debate atheists?

This just gets sillier and sillier.

"None of you have shown any reason why God doesn't exist"

Because you said "don't tell me you can't prove God doesn't exist."

Would you like a second spade to dig that already impressive hole you've dug yourself into?

Sorry, but anyone who poses questions like:

"humans and other creatures turn oxygen into carbon"

Is either incredibly ignorant, or a troll, neither of which are the kinds of people I'd want to waste my time debating.

"Are you stupid? I am trying to prove a God exists just not any of the Gods you think of"

Earlier on, you referred to this god as "God," not "a god," God is the name of the Christian god, that's why they capitalise the G, and you didn't say "a" god, you just said "God." This means one of two things:

1) you're incredibly ignorant

2) you're incredibly dishonest

If you think you're neither, that means you're 1).

No, you said:

"I know why you can't prove God doesn't exist so don't tell me because that's why I'M ASKING YOU TO HEAR ME PROVE HE DOES."

You can back pedal as much as you want, but those are your words, are they not?

After all that, you have said and done nothing. So do it, prove that a god exists

The big bang occurred and there is evidence to show it. Evolution has occurred and is still occurring and there is evidence for that. Its just that people like lightening (above) refuses to accept it. He's an idiot

This is quite ridiculous and not really worthy of a response, but I'll give one. I call the universe God because it created us, whether it meant to, or not.

If you don't believe in the bible then why are you calling god 'Him'? (already chosen a gender eh?)
