Aaron Sorkin, my favorite screen writer, once wrote: "'Cause we came out of the cave and we looked over the hill and we saw fire. And we crossed the ocean and we pioneered the West and we took to the sky. The history of man is hung on a timeline of exploration..."
Our purpose is to learn and teach others to learn. The reason? Because it's what we (or maybe just me) live for. Since I'm Christian, I also think we have a duty to help others (I'm not saying Atheists don't, I'm just pointing out my motivation).
Don't forget this is all in good fun!
