Religion is dealing with that question and has been for thousands of years, so why would you look to science that has never dealt with the question...in fact, scientifically you can't conceive of approaching it. I challenge you to solve the great mystery through the scientific process though, because it is a life-changing topic.
I already stated, to which you quoted. Science isn't asking that question so obviously you won't find it there.
Religion has been "dealing" with it by spreading false testimony through text that nobody can verify. How can you be so sure that the information it contains is infallible when you cannot even prove the god that exists in that text in the first place? It's like putting on a blindfold and walking around in a dark cave. Why not just take the blindfold off and use a torchlight? You just blind yourself further to only end up smacking into walls sooner or later.
Ace and I answered your question regarding the meaning of life in our perspective already but you keep shunning it because it doesn't suit your religious persona. You keep asking the same question over and over again seemingly in hopes that we would go "Aw crap you're right, life really means nothing without a supernatural being to spy on us constantly" but that will never happen. Face it, god doesn't exist. Pray for hours, months, or days but you will still have to walk to the kitchen to get a drink. You still have to work hard to earn a living. You still have to walk to the bathroom to take a poop. No amount of being holy changes anything in life.
Last but not least, if your god is so powerful and almighty, why is it that you are failing so miserably in these forums?
