    Seriously?

    I'm not particularly depressed at the moment, nor am I religious but I often wonder - beyond reproduction - is there really much of a point to anything?

    From dust - to dust.....................

    Further to what Black Swan has said above, there's a thread titled "What is the reason for life or living?" near the bottom of this page in the forum. If you'd like to discuss this topic, then I invite you to share any thoughts you have in that particular thread. Please bear in mind what Black Swan has said above, though: elaborate on your opinions and beliefs; don't post completely open-ended, one-line remarks. :)
