saarnok: My conception of "god", the universe and order is that it makes no difference how the universe comes to exist. It doesn't need a beginning (but it can have one), it doesn't need a creator, (but it can have one). It simply IS. So what is the purpose for the universe?

What is the purpose of a rock? What is the purpose of anything? You're asking the wrong question. What is the purpose of your life? That is the question. Does the universe diminish without you? No. It remains complete. Would you diminish without the universe? You only exist if it does. You've reversed the dependent variables as if the universe need justify itself to you. For all we know, the absolute least important thing in this universe is life on Earth. That makes no difference to us. Life on Earth is what we have and it depends on properly determining and acting in accordance with the rules of the universe.
