I think they should create good conditions on Earth for all animals. They must do so that the animals no longer have to kill each other.

The main humanity's purpose in my opinion is to humanize humans. Sounds simple but that is often ignored by humans and difficult to do.

It seems the purpose is to ruin ourselves..
But "the purpose" is just a notion we put some meaning into.

The main goal of humanity is not to destroy our world. And try to protect him from all disasters, wars. We must develop, improve what we have.

I think that the goal of human life is to become happy and to make other people happy without infringing on anyone or harming anyone) it looks like a utopia, but how great it would be to live in such world)


Of course , your ideas which you have mentioned above are utopia. People love harming each other's feeling and they also want to destroy other people's life. For that reason , humanity's aim cannot become happy.

The possibilities are two:
1. Humanity has no purpose
2. Humanity has the purpose of creating the next form of life, siclicium based, which will be the AI created in computers.

Like others might tell to exist and do your mission and to repay the highest among the highest because this place where you step on, is not permanent. To do a mission or to do what you want that you think that would help other and yourself. One must remember that this place, the earth is a gift from God and His Son Jesus we take good care of the earth and do what you think that would make our world better.

Our role is to gain a perspective. To exist. To do what we can. Some aspects of humanity seem more important than others. Morality, love, learning, compassion, etc. are more important than greed, violence, etc.

The purpose of humanity is to live in peace. Where there is no humanity there is no peace. If we can establish humanity in the people's life, we will be able to lead a nice and wonderful life.

Human purpose is something you will understand as you climb higher on the mountain of life. As you gain a greater vantage point, you will understand more of the journey itself.
The purpose of the eye is to see and of the ear to hear, the feet and legs are for the sake of motion, the hands for grasping, etc. We can go on in somewhat this manner pretty convincingly. But wouldn't it be strange if every human ...

In the words of Rust Cohle from True Detective,
'I think human consciousness is a tragic misstep in evolution. We became too self-aware. Nature created an aspect of nature separate from itself. We are creatures that should not exist by natural law. We are things that labor under the illusion of having a self, this accretion of sensory experience and feelings, programmed with total assurance that we are each somebody, when in fact everybody's nobody.'

He then goes on saying that we should deny our programming and stop reproducing, but I don't really agree with that.

As the first and possibly only species to become sentient and to truly control our species' destiny we have the unique opportunity of asking ourselves. What should we do?
I don't mean what is your individual purpose.
What should sapiens, humans, terrans, as a whole, be aiming to do?

Homo sapiens have only one purpose in life and this is reproducing. Humanking were born with this instintnc . No matter the circumstances are, they can find the way to reproduce. That's why, people have a tendency to bare more children . Our aim for life is reproducing.

Yes that's true. But because we are sentient we get to provide our collective existence with a bit more meaning than that  Tongue

Me? I think the purpose is to put forward God's plan upon this earth. To propagate kindness to everyone and to realize that we as a species are responsible for everything and everyone. This selfless understanding must come first from God, maintained by Him and replenished ny Him. We only need to surrender to God to have it. Doing Hos purpose for our lives, surrendering to be a tool for Him for me is the greatest purpose man can have

I think the goal is development, like evolution. Development of awareness, knowledge, humanism.

Yeah I really like this thought. Our species purpose is not a fixed item on a checklist. it is simply to keep developing. Purpose in this case is a an emergent property so meaning is found as more is learnt and developed.

There is no ultimate goal, there is a direction.

Man this is such a deep quote. Very conscious.

To boldly go where no man has gone before...

I guess they already explore everything in this world so it's better to explore things in the universe.

This requires a very complex answer but to make it simple humanity's purpose is to live the word of God or to do good to everyone and to respond positively to every situation. It is not easy because of the different factors that hinders us to stay positive all the time but once we realize we have surpass all the stages in life it is indeed fulfilling.

Actually I don't see any purpose haha.. We always make a shit and trying to make a weapon of mass destruction that might eventually kill all of the sentient beings in our one and only planet.

 
I believe our purpose is to eventually spread to the stars and colonize other planets. This galaxy alone has 100 thousand million stars, with even more planets. That is our ultimate destiny. So things we do now may seem insignificant, but it all slowly contributes to the eventual expansion of the human race as a Stellar Civilization.
You are right, but before that happens we must first unite as one specie and accept the differences of human race unless you wanna spread some shits around the galaxy lol.

This question is highly subjective and what I think others may not and vice versa. Most people will probably say the purpose of life is to recreate and that makes sense from a biological standpoint. My view is different and I think the purpose of life is to live and experience as many things as humanly possible. But that is how and why I live not everybody will agree of course.

As a human, we should be aiming to be a creature that innovates through our knowledge. We should be able to invent new things that can help all of the rest of humanity in general. We should cooperate and help each other to be able to improve faster. Humanities purpose is to live. While living we should make the best of it by doing things that can help the whole society to have a greater world.

We should be aiming to keep it as such. By keeping it as such i mean we ve got to first of all make sure the earth we hold so dear and aim to control all it inhabitants must be kept safe, Issues of global warming are real and if care is not taken, there will be no planet for us to be sentient or have a great control over anymore. Secondly, i look at the need for us to play safe. To play safe, i mean we have to be sure we dont get over ourselves by doing things that will relinquish power to our own creations. I believe AI comes to mind then. Doing this will sustain our reign for a long time

As individuals, we obviously have to find our own purpose. As a specie though, opinions differ. For example, there are those that maintain that our prime objective should be to leave Earth and expand humanity across the universe.

IMHO, we should start closer to home first, extending the usable life of our planet and alleviating suffering, establishing a common human community that would be essential once we start colonizing space.

Yeah doing both is a must. We can't colonise space without unifying as a species (getting rid of nation states) but we can't hedge our bets on just being  a one planet species. We might get done in by an asteroid or some things random (or us).
