   The meaning of life is what you can wish to happen in the most favourable case in an unforeseeably faraway future, without having to rely on a God (or something alike), a hereafter or the immateriality of your own person, and the attempt of contributing in the most effective way to its fulfilment.

   Does philosophy ever find the meaning of life?

   • So the very idea that philosophy could inquire into the meaning of life was taken as a sign of conceptual confu-sion. The solution to the problem, as Ludwig Wittgenstein once remarked, would lie in its disappearance.2 But somehow the problem does not go away; the search for life’s meaning, confused or not, retains as powerful a hold on us as ever.

   What is purpose theory of meaning in life?

   • Metz discusses six existing arguments for purpose theory of meaning in life and offers objections to each of these arguments. Purpose theory is “the view that one’s life is meaningful just insofar as one fulfills a purpose that God has assigned to one” (Metz, 2013a, p. 80).

   Is Love the answer to the meaning of life?

   • Given the importance of love, it is unfortunate just how little we acknowledge love as the answer to the meaning of life. Etymology tells us that ‘philosophy’ translates as ‘the love (philo) of wisdom (sophia)’. Therefore, by virtue of being a philosopher, one is already, by default, concerned with matters of love.

Metz also proposes a novel argument to undermine purpose theory by showing that it is inconsistent with the best argument for a God-centered theory of meaning.
