What is the meaning of life?


Question


What is the meaning of life?


Answer


Life it has a meaning and loving purpose you just have to find your purpose and live it.brbrI believe every person is here for a definite purpose. Each person is special and valuable that refers to me, you, your family, friends, in fact everybody! There is a loving plan for each of our lives here on earth and there is no such thing as coincidence. I dont believe that anything in life happens by chance and that every aspect of our lives points to something deeper.brbrAs human beings, we all ask the question Who am I? Who am I meant to become? What is my value or destiny as a human being? Who will become for me the model of my humanity? Pope John Paul II told us that ultimately JESUS CHRIST IS THE ANSWER to these questions. Christ is the living blueprint and pattern for our humanity. Jesus Christ reveals our meaning to us.brbrThus Pope John Paul II, quoting Vatican II in his Redeemer of the Human Race, wrote quotChrist...fully reveals man to himself and brings to light his most high calling.quot quotIn Christ and through Christ,quot the pope added, all are enabled to come to quotfull awareness of their dignity...and of the meaning of their existence.quotbrbrYou need to decide now to live for God rather than for yourself. You spend your life on Earth preparing yourself as best you can for death. I dont see death as a scary, negative experience, but birth into a bliss filled eternal life with God. I believe that this is something you have to consciously choose or not during your life on earth. brbrThe meaning of life is for us to discover that we are true children of an infinitely loving and merciful God, to find out what our responsibilities are to our Creator, and to fulfill those responsibilities. Each of us is called to affirm, accept and develop the talents God has given us.

What is the meaning of life ? ?


Question


What is the meaning of life ? ?
its an old question but i want to see if people can come up with new answers


Answer


Ecclesiastes makes it clear that the purpose of life is for humans to quotfear the true God and keep his commandments. For this is the whole obligation of man.quot This doesnt mean that we should fear God the same way that you would fear a wild animal or a violent person, but we fear displeasing him like a child fears displeasing his parents because of the disappointment they will feel. Since we were created by God, it only makes sense that the purpose of life would be spiritual. Many have expressed that even having a higher education, money, possessions, and a good family, cannot fill the void that they feel. However, those who understand the Bible and apply what it teaches have said that they feel full and happy, and that their life has meaning and purpose.brbrThe only way to acknowledge God is by reading and systematically studying the letter that he wrote to us the Bible. We can learn what he loves and what he hates. We can also find satisfying, logical answers to the questions that torment most people, such as Why are we allowed to suffer? Will things go on this way forever? What really happens to us when we die? Is there any hope for our dead loved ones? What is the Kingdom of God? Does God cause our problems? Are God and Jesus Christ the same? Where is mankind and earth itself headed? How can I live a life that is pleasing to God? Do all religions lead to the same place, or is there only one true religion? How can we have a happier family life?brbrThe Bible answers all of these questions, but it can seem intimidating trying to find the answers in such a big book. Some have expressed that they want to study the Bible, but the book is so big and studying it just seems too daunting a task. It can be compared to having instructions to find a very valuable treasure, but the instructions are written in a language that you have little understanding of. With no one to guide them, some have given up and decided to just allow religious leaders to tell them what their understanding of spiritual things is without using the Bible. However, persons who do so have expressed that they still dont understand the Bible and the only answers they have received to their troubling questions is that God and his ways are a mystery. It is important for each person to study the Bible for himself. Sure, it will take effort and time, but it is not as hard as people think. brbrOne Bible aid that I have enjoyed is a book called What Does the Bible Really Teach? It does not replace the Bible at all, but breaks down the Bible in a topical format and directs you to your own Bible. For example, the first chapter is What is the Truth About God? so it will only discuss scriptures that have a bearing on that subject. You can actually read this book online for free at httpwww.watchtower.orgebharticlea

Has Hitler influenced the Human Race more than anyone who has ever lived?


Question


Has Hitler influenced the Human Race more than anyone who has ever lived?


Answer


You know your going to get some stupid answers here dont you mate. Hitler, or rather Nazi ideology, has had a massive influence on todays planet. But more than anyone before him, no its to much of a loaded question which cant be answered accurately because of all the variables. For example, people could point to the teachings of PlatoAristotle which helped construct the first ever democratic state Athens. Military figures, well Ceaser, Alexander the Great, Napoleon and many others all contributed just as must, if not more, to constructing national boundaries. The god squad on here will point to Jesus as more of an influence, but that for me is open to interpretation.brbrAFTER NOTE see Jay. BTW there is historical proof that a man called Jesus actually lived in Jerusalem around , years ago, what they cant prove is that he was the son of God. And it was Logie Baid that invented the TV but then what about other inventions, the phone, aeroplanes, sliced bread, blow up dolls all important to mankind
