Why are we here? Is it really just to ensure the continuation of the human race?

Depends on what your belief system is personally I mostly lean to us being here for no real reason. I don't think we have any greater purpouse, but to live our lives to the fullest and do our part to the betterment of humanity... Which is why I'm spending my time here on Yahoo!Answers. Oh, that and I've got nothing better to do.

Everyone has their own reasons for being here.  \nRelax, Release, Relate!\nIt's not that serious!

We are here to:\n\n-receive a body\n-be tested to see the choices we make according to what we've been taught \n\nWe each have purpose and meaning as to why we are here.\nYou have a 'mission' to be here-whatever that may be.\nThere is something (or many things) that it takes YOU to do-with your own talents and abilities\n\n:)

It is inherent in our nature as conscious, rational beings to contemplate the order of the world and our place within that order.\nThat is why we ask.

In this huge galaxy called the Milky Way, the posibilities are great. The problem is knowing were to look and being lucky to find that "needle in a hay stack".\n\nWe're here, and maybe if other beings exist, they may never find us either.\n\nThe answer is to believe and continue to explore our galaxy with optical and radio telescopes. And untill humanity can explore fisicaly and populate other worlds, or just stay here and awate the end of life.

Well. I suppose it is so because it is the sole purpose why we have been created by nature & by the same process too! Failing to procreate would be failing to fulfill our role.

i think people find answers in worship and belief in something greater than themselves. a guidance to why we are here on this world and the reasons behind it.

To understand who humans are, they must understand where they are.  Humans are a part of the biosphere, not to control it and destroy it for personal gain, but to allow them an opportunity to understand it and themselves.  You are separated from nature by your own mind.  You are the one who separates yourself from the rest of the Universe.  Dissolve this boundary, and you will have no bounds.

Obviously each person needs to find that out for themselves.  The only place to find one's purpose is in oneself.\n\nIf you're looking for a popular answer, "To leave the world better off than when you entered it."

Why do humans have different races? If they arent meant to co-exist than their should be one race of humans since we all evolved due to the enviroment they were inhabiting.

It is human nature to try and cling on to the life that we possess, indeed as humans we often value human life above all things.\n\nBut to God, our lives here are short and only one stage of his plan for us. As Christians we believe that Gods plan for us all includes something far greater than our life here, on earth.\n\nBeing dead tomorrow is not something we should fear, as death is just one step on the journey that God wishes us to take, and he watches over us throughout all of that journey.
