This answer just has to be said when this question is asked. I apologize for the inconvenience.


For a serious answer, I think that life has no meaning or purpose. I don't mean that life is useless, or a waste of space and time. What I mean is that there is no single answer that covers "what is the meaning of life?" Everyone has their own individual purposes, goals, etc. Things that are important to one person and gives their life meaning, are completely reviled and avoided by another person. There is no answer to the purpose of life that applies to "all life" in the universe. Everyone has to find their own answer to the question.

As a side note, if we do try to answer the meaning of life, then does that answer apply to ALL life? What about non-sentient life, like plants and bacteria?
