Are We Here for a Reason?

Today on Far Future Horizons we join veteran actor Morgan Freeman for another exciting installment of the acclaimed documentary series Through the Wormhole.

This episode explores the question - Are We Here for a Reason?

Evolution tells us that all life exists for only one purpose: to reproduce. But is that all there is?

How could such a simple imperative lead us to create great art and civilizations? A new theory suggests that instead of passing on genes, our ultimate purpose is to process and pass on information.

We are the universe figuring itself out. Scientists dig deep into DNA, chemistry, technology and engineering to find the meaning of life.

One thing is certain: living is easier if you find a reason for living.

This episode of Through the Wormhole hosted by Morgan Freeman can be purchased direct from Amazon’s Instant Video.
