I'm sure, though I don't have evidence or proof... My theory, is that energy and matter has always existed in some form before it reconstructed itself into the universe as we know it. Now if all matter and energy is 'god', then that means god always existed.

There's also a theory that the universe expands and contracts, and there's an everlasting cycle of big bangs and big collapses? Sort of like if the universe was a giant lung. And it has always existed.

Again, these are just theories formulated based upon studying the way the universe behaves.... there's no evidence so it's not faith.

There has to be a purpose for it, all this big bangin and then all the collapsing, it has to be going somewhere with it all. Like it seems pointless just to be cyclical in nature and never progress to anything complete.

Well, maybe the purpose is just to be. Be alive. Be a human. Enjoy the experience of life. Grow yourself, so that you can help humanity grow as a whole. Love, experience true love. I don't have an answer as to why, I don't know everything. So that's the best I can give you. Get to know the universe. Learn how the universe works. Learn how you work. Learn about what you need in order to be as healthy and as happy as you can be. Oh and most importantly, learn about what you DON'T need. (alcohol, crack, mtv, iphones, junk foods...) I can tell you right now, giving up all that junk and becoming healthy and pure and exercising is one of the best feelings I've ever experienced in my life.

Dammit ...why don't you have all the answers? I'm trying to get some wisdom here! I know I know, there's no way to know what the purpose of it all is, but sheesh, inquiring minds are stirring ya know?

Speaking of unhealthy shit, I learned not to long ago about all the nasty ass chemicals in the shampoos, soaps, body lotions, deodorants etc. Darn near impossible to escape it all without moving to the bushes in some far off vacant land....

Me being a pantheist, God is everything the universe is.

EVERYTHING. The good and the bad. Assuming God is real of course.

The answers are out there. I might not have them all, but I am sure I have something you can learn from, and vice versa. It is the collective wisdom and knowledge of everyone and thing that matters. Everyone has something to give. If one person has just one thing to offer, that's over 6 billions things to gain.

Oh yea, and you're right, it's extremely hard to escape all the contaminates that western society has put in their products unless like you said, you start living off the land. Hmmm come to think of it, we might be on to something.

I like this post a lot. Life is very much about learning what we do not need, I don't own a Iphone just because the whole universe wants one. My phone can take pics, send texts, do phonecalls, and that's about it. I don't need a phone that can create movies or give me a blowjob (although that would be kind of fun).

I don't want kids cuz I dont need the stress, and I consider myself an overall happy person because I can do without a lot. Money is important, but it doesnt rule my life.

The only purpose I can see for this life is to enjoy it as long as possible. Stress and sadness are not natural or healthy things, happiness is the only thing that truly helps us feel alive.
