Is there a purpose to life? Does there have to be? Humans have invented gods to create a purpose, but the gods don't actually exist.

But if you're looking for a purpose, I quite like this: https://slatestarcodex.com/2015/08/17/the-goddess-of-everyth...

Don't we all already know that the purpose to life is to expand and mutate? Which is also the purpose of the universe in general, come to think of it. So I guess the most purposeful being in the universe is a radioactive Joey Chestnut.
