Why would there be any purpose? Would not that suggest then that life was created with a plan?
You do not need to subscribe to a God's plan. If God had a plan he would not give it to the Christians with their Sodom a Gomorrah record.
By a strong work ethic, you increase your luck to enable yourself to create a purpose in life.
That appears to be a qualification of a purpose for one's own life. I was posting on the assumption of life in general, whether a one celled organism or a complex thinking being.
In that case, we can create our own purpose which should be to enjoy this life as much as possible and take as many as we can along for the ride. This is it. 10,000 years from now, we will be in oblivion and no one will know we were ever here. Enjoy.
You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.

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.
