Melbourne Philosopher has commenced a discussion of the question ‘What is the meaning of life?’. An ever-pertinent question, the Editor has decided to raise it here.
What is the meaning of life?
[Editorial Aside – ‘42’ is, at present, a non-sufficient answer. Any demonstration that ‘42’ is the answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything will need to establish that ‘seven times seven’ is in fact the question and that the correct answer to that question is not, in fact, ‘5’ – as some ‘Bizarre Sceptic’ might just claim (thank you S. Kripke)].

7 x 7 is 49, not 42.
Need there be "a" purpose to life.
Can't we individually have a purpose in life?... like Mary’s purpose was to give birth to Fred who invented fire alarms.
Why has this need to collectively strive towards a common purpose been so ingrained in our philosophical rhetoric?
