I agree with this, is it not possible that there is no meaning to life. What if we are a by-product of some alien experiment; there is not too much meaning to that life. That may seem kind of silly to some, but there are people who believe this is true. In this scenario the only higher power would be a more advanced race of beings. Maybe god like, but certainly not omnipotent.
I realize this is just a hypothetical situation, it dose however bring up another point; even if it is far fetched. [img]smile.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]The Meaning of Life is easy, that's 42. The hard part is knowing what the real question is!
Seriously I do not need a outside observer (ie creating power, all powerful god, alien masters, etc..) to give my life meaning. My life has meaning because I give it meaning. If someone feels they are leading a meaningless life then they should re-examine their goals and vaules [img]smile.gif[/img]
