Please don't say 42, I've heard it/said it a million times.

To end.

It doesnt mean anything...it doesnt have a plot like some sort of novel or movie..we are all making up this sh*t as we go along

The meaning of life is to give life meaning.

Wait...I mean, there is no meaning, jump out a window :o

I'm sick of these threads. To reproduce. The End. El Fin.

LADY PRESENTER: Well, that's the end of the film. Now, here's the meaning
of life. Thank you, Brigitte. M-hmm. Well, it's nothing very special.
Uh, try and be nice to people, avoid eating fat, read a good book every
now and then, get some walking in, and try and live together in peace and
harmony with people of all creeds and nations, and, finally, here are
some completely gratuitous pictures of penises to annoy the censors and
to hopefully spark some sort of controversy, which, it seems, is the only
way, these days, to get the jaded, video-sated public off their fucking
arses and back in the sodding cinema. Family entertainment bollocks.
What they want is filth: people doing things to each other with chainsaws
during tupperware parties, babysitters being stabbed with knitting needles
by gay presidential candidates, vigilante groups strangling chickens,
armed bands of theatre critics exterminating mutant goats-- Where's the
fun in pictures? Oh, well, there we are. Here's the theme music.
Goodnight.

lol monty pyton had it right ;)

I'm bored. I wish I had somebody to talk at.

The point of life is quite simple. The purpose of mankind is to make the antichrist and harness her power to destroy the Planet of Ghor in a climatic interstellar war of the worlds.

To piss people off... Its so much fun.

Hentai!

That's just sick.

that as good of an explanation as any other...okay i am in...what religion is this?

Instead of saying '42', I'm going to be a dick and say...

Fourty-two.

42??

The meaning of life is to have fun and make love to as many attractive people as possible :P

I'm sick of these threads. To reproduce. The End. El Fin.

That's the biological meaning, not the spiritual meaning. ;)

To kick butt and chew bubble gum. If you happen to run out of bubblegum, one out of two ain't bad.

If you are sick of them why post?

hey dudes and feme fatals what is this 42 buisness??

That's the biological meaning, not the spiritual meaning. ;)
The spirit is a mere extention of the body. I personally do not believe that there is an independent spirit, and that everything may reduced to a biological level. It doesn't even take genetic material to know that the meaning of life is to reproduce (prions). But I guess it is permissible for theologians to discuss if they are so inclined...

hey dudes and feme fatals what is this 42 buisness??
Some Christian numerology thing.

If you are sick of them why post?
To vainly attempt to stop them.

To advance as close to God-hood as you possibly can.

hey dudes and feme fatals what is this 42 buisness??
it's from a hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy (a book). in this book, 42 is the answer to life, the universe and everything.

at the time, it was the number of planets and moons in our solar system. however, since then we've discovered a great many more (i.e. jupiter has more than 42 moons itself) so even 42 is wrong.

it has nothing to do with christianity, or numerology, for that matter, i don't know where the hell gnostikos heard that, but that's just fucked.

Some Christian numerology thing.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Oh. I'm sorry. No.

It's a reference to "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", by Scott Adams, most assuredly an atheist.

hey dudes and feme fatals what is this 42 buisness??
read/listen to/watch the hitchhikers guide to the galaxy, I believe it is a reference to said, novel/movie/sound thingo

okay..the answer is quite obvious...the meaning of life as nothing to do with just reproducing and then dying or finding god...what matters more in this life? To live...thats what it is all about...just living...so go live...easy. next question.

it has nothing to do with christianity, or numerology, for that matter, i don't know where the hell gnostikos heard that, but that's just fucked.
Somewhere I read someone taking numerological values from some religious document and showing complex mathematical formulae, supposedly prooving that 42 is the answer to life. Apparently there is another reference as well.

you have to make everything complicated dont you?

THAT'S a mistake, just pointing it out. ;)

Um, I think you might have missed something. I'd like to see that formula, sounds very funny. :D

Life ain't simple. Unless you're retarded.

Oh, it was.

Life ain't simple. Unless you're retarded.

And Life isn't that complex...unless you are paranoid schizophrenic

The spiritual and the physical are inseparable, just as the mind and the brain are inseparable. That does not mean they cannot have different qualities and purposes.

Hentai!

Hell ya!!! :p

There is no meaning to life - it just *is*.

Not everything is explainable or meaningful.

Slender Goddess

nope. i will tell you how douglas adams arrived at 42.

with the most up to date knowledge about the solar system, he added the number of planets and the number of moons orbiting the planets in our solar system. he arrived at 42. he was wrong.

This wasn't in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. It was somewhere else.

Gnostikos, i think you are mistaking 42 with PHI the golden number...

Let's just say Samuel Adams and leave it at that. ;)

Or, even better, William Adams, the Anjin-sama.

It's to have as much sex as possible so you don't have to go live on cold wet clouds with a light above your head that will never go off so you can't sleep. And so that you can go down where it's nice and warm and there's a sexy red guy that always walks around naked.
