Re: Mind's Eye Re: Question of Purpose

I would suggest to leave the dog owners with their sentiments just as much as the god-given with their purpose. How about saying the purpose of life and survival is to create meaning/make sense of it all? Or would that be a too counter-argumentative, unspecified, unobjectifiable, unproductive, circular, non-sensical approach?

If survival were the purpose for an individual , morality and
patriotism would make no sense.  In my opinion man is born without a
god-given purpose , and it is society which builds , develops and
inculcates a purpose in the individual. That would explain the
self-sacrificing deeds of great valor exhibited by many people.
