A purpose is something a thinking agency has decided upon. There is no evidence anything in the universe was "designed for a purpose" by anything. In fact, the Earth is going to end one day, and the whole universe will die a heat death. Sounds pretty un-purposeful if anything.
Would you say that the ability for an organism to reproduce itself is purposeful? Is the human immune system purposeful? The clotting of blood?
