If you want to know why people exist, I think there is a fairly obvious
answer: Other people made us. Have you ever heard this riddle: What is it
that elephants can do that no other animals can do? You're supposed to
puzzle over that one thinking of various feats of strength but give up when
you realize that humans can do all of those things using machines. The answer
is: Make more elephants. As far as we can tell, as biologists, that's all
every life form is here for: To make more.
If you are looking for meaning in life, try raising some children. They will
clue you in: They are the reason you are here.
If this is so, then what's so "special" about having and raising
children?
