Can I ask a question about ... our Universe?
dastructhm:
As I get older and older, I keep asking myself question about our universe. Sorry.
why are there 8 planets in our solar system? why not 10, 25, 6?
where were things before the big bang? where are we going? and why are we going?
the universe is dark dark dark. Isn't that soooo scary?
If God created us, where did he get the time to create soooooo many things and sooooooo many creatures? He even created cats and tigers to differentiate themselves....
and most importantly, we humans' lives are very hard in this universe. What's the point/purpose of lives?

Yep that is the big question, that no one can provide a conclusive answer to.

I don't think that there's an inherit purpose to existence. That doesn't mean that you can't find one for yourself and make of it what you want, bonus points for improving the lives of others in the process.

Some star systems probably do have six planets. Twenty-five is probably unlikely, there would be collisions merging many of them. I fail to see how the number of planets has any significance worth pondering.
While the universe has no purpose, your life can have purpose. Eventually you will die and cease to exist. Just as you didn't exist before the sperm and egg got together. It's up to you what you do with your life. Hopefully you learn this sooner rather than later.
Sorry, there is no god. Grow up and accept reality not fairy tales.
