Something that stuck in my mind from watching The Matrix when it came out.
"I'd like to share a revelation that I've had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species and I realized that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment but you humans do not. You move to an area and you multiply and multiply until every natural resource is consumed and the only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet."

Calvin: "I wonder why man was put on Earth. What's our purpose? Why are we here?"
Hobbes: "Tiger Food."
Hobbes: "Tiger Food."
It's just one big computer game - now the real question is: what is the purpose of the species playing the game?

Ah I feel better knowing there's another Calvin and Hobbes fan out there. I'm off to fly a kite now.
i've been thinking about this today too, not sure why :/
anyways i remember some one once saying that we are here as a prison sentance, for something we done in another life. When we die thats when our service is up.
Obviously you would have to believe in alot of things for this to be true but at the same time it makes sence in a really strange way? ie babies dying, short sentance dont get the stress ect of life, or old people that have done good all their life, watching others die around them until they are lonely - must have done something terrible!
Personally though i have no idea, but intend to enjoy it as much as possible

We are a genetic race, bred by a now long extinct race, to do one job and one job only for them; to dig up gold.
They controlled every aspect of our lives, and were a stand offish race, so they needed closer control and thus created kings and queens for humans because they themselves came from a form of hive society and thus forced us to follow suit.
Then when they died off after creating that aweful book of rules to really give us complexes, we were left on our own.
Thats my take on it any way.

To live.
Pretty much the only reason any other organism ever needed.
I doubt there ever was a grand purpose anyway, people often seem to try and find one but we are just posh bacteria in a bigger petra dish.
Or 42, depending on your point of view.

We are the only unnecessary lifeform on the planet. Even the bacteria and parasites that prey on us have alternative hosts.
We must be a mutant species that is is extremely viable but destrimental to almost everything including eventually ourselves
The web of life would be stronger without our presence.
On the other hand some superior species placed us here knowing we would transform the world into a state that they would find easier to exploit.

Does anyone else find it interesting that we as humans can look at just about anything in nature and understand how it fits into the overall scheme of things and yet fail to even begin to comprehend a purpose for ourselves? Mac
