If there were a god, even god could not answer that one.

That depends on whether or not it is even real.

None.  Humans seem to think there is a purpose, but like any animal, the human species is simply a product of evolution doomed to extinction.

Because it is easier to answer a question with "magic" rather than science.
You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.
-- Homer Simpson

God has no place within these walls, just as facts have no place within organized religion.
-- Superintendent Chalmers

Science is like a blabbermouth who ruins a movie by telling you how it ends. There are some things we don't want to know. Important things.
-- Ned Flanders

Once something's been approved by the government, it's no longer immoral.
-- The Rev Lovejoy

First you must buy $666 worth of her products, then she may consider it. I'll say a prayer that she doesn't harden her heart with your request. If not, there's always the afterlife.

Gotta go with choice B.  It's all about the frogs and dragonflies .. and avoiding mosquitos.

Would you be interested in adopting a pink invisible incorporeal magic dragon pup?

Or a rock crusher?

Or a banananananana?

Sure.  Perhaps a nice cross breed of two or more of the above?  Let me know if you get a litter?

That's the little stalk that your uvula hangs down from, but it should be spelled puropus.

Because it is useful in binding people together in groups so they can go and beat the crap out of other people groups that are doing the same thing only less successfully.

I think I get some sleep now.
Goodnight.
So how, exactly, does God know that She's NOT a brain in a vat? Huh
