To put it simply, that's probably every human's responsibility and purpose.

To reproduce.

 

There is no purpose. We are living things just like animals or plants.
You live for a while and then you die.
Any purpose you come up with is just a belief. Which there is nothing wrong with that.

I'm surprised no body has brought up a religious flame war yet.

I disagree, the world is already overpopulated.

Well, you're assuming that time is constant, and there was a time where there was nothing. That doesn't really make any sense, sense time itself is an actual manipulative thing. Generally its accepted that, since time itself is a phenomena, there was no time before the big bang. So, in that case, something didn't come from nothing. And when it comes to life being complex: Its actually not complex. The universe, as it expands and stars dim, goes from order to disorder. It may seem like we are a unit of order, but the waste we emit (dead bodies, poop, etc) far outweighs the materials and the population we produce. So our society is actually a form of increasing disorder, as is everything else in the universe. I'm not good at explaining that though, google, "Disorder and order in the universe" its rather complicated.

TL;DR: Philosophy is a bitch and messing with it doesn't get anyone anywhere.

Time hasn't always existed? Where did it come from then. That still didn't even nearly answer my question. I also don't consider the big bang theory to be a logical beginning of everything. What exactly blew up? That theory starts with existence already existing.

You also contradicted yourself:

- "And when it comes to life being complex: Its actually not complex. The universe, as it expands and stars dim, goes from order to disorder."

- "I'm not good at explaining that though, google, "Disorder and order in the universe" its rather complicated."

I'm not saying you or your views of life are wrong, I'm just saying that you didn't really answer what I said. You seem like a smart guy. However, If you put everything to the bare basics, existence doesn't make any sense. There's always the odds that it could have never happened, which is technically the only chance possible. (if you formulate it scientifically)

I'm not sure if we're going off topic, but this question can essentially lead to some weird conversations.  

Many scientists theorize that there really wasn't anything that triggered the Big Bang, it just happened. It leads to the belief that there was never a moment where time never existed - when the Big Bang took place, time has always been there.  

Well from a religious perspective it's to worship God/Gods. But I don't want a religious debate. My own theory on it is to achieve happiness and just grasp whatever you want.  

Yeah, let's keep religion out of this. Never a good idea for forums.
