Some speculate that humanity is an accident on this planet. According to their views,man was not put here for a purpose,that man has no God-given purpose,and he is left to make up his purpose and meaning in life if he can.

Things dont just happen like dat; there is an Unmoved Mover - God, who has a purpose 4 evry man. He created d "gud" person & d "bad" one in order to achieve His purpose. Will u blame Him 4 dat? Who are u 2 do so?

Nope that's not a purpose, that is rather a quality. Like saying the purpose of a knife is to be sharp!

U apply human definition & standards here. Study d life of Esau vs. Jaccob, & God's punishments upon Pharaoh, King Saul, Jerobam etc, & u understand wat mean. Man is so helpless unless God chooses 2 help him.

I don't knw what you mean by human definitions. However, for God to have a purpose, he must be invented to fit into such purpose. So if God must be purposeless to be without a cause or an inventor.

Mayb I shud come out clearer. God's Supremacy, Power & Control is a QUALITY, I agree wit u; but His expression of that supremacy, power & control is a PURPOSE and not quality.
