What is the meaning of life?

2legs - Hey, babe, take a walk on the wild side...

It is, I guess, a quote from me. Of course, as we can not understand what 'me' is, let alone the 'function' of our 'consciouness', and as most of our actions are performed before we've even thought of them, its unlikely to be somethign I thought of, and less likely to be something I wrote. I wonder who said it then? who was that?

Life's meaning is so insignificant that actually knowing it changes nothing.

It is almost a direct quote from Tom Lehrer.
The song was In Old Mexico and the lyric.
"We ate, we drank and we were merry,
And we got typhoid and dysentery"

I agree that life is more about the procreation and protection of species then anything more deep and meaningful.
smiley - cheers

hello everyone.
I think the meaning of life is to reproduce the species. If one asks what is the meaning to life, I would say it is a series of choices that we make, that is all. We make bad ones or good ones. The quality of our lives is shaped by these choices. Except for death and disease every problem is man made so can be man solved (or of course woman solved to be pc) It is how we deal with the problems that face us which strengthens us. To me life has been one long series of stone walls to climb without being able to play in the meadows in between.
