Yes First, humans had always been looking up in the sky and pondered about the splendor of existing. It is the mystery of our existence that have propelled human development. It had been the spark that have made the humans think. To give meaning about everything. Second, it is the unknown that has made life an adventure. It is because of death that we knew and value life. It is the unknown island that made humans explore. And these are not possible without first thinking about the mystery of our existence. Third, life has been meaningful because we give meaning to it. We give meaning to life because we have not been given its meaning. Confusing as it may seem, but life is meaningful because there are many things that we don't know. Side: Yes

Many people feel that many of the questions you posit have already been answered. For the spiritual, there are dozens of religions that claim to have the answers and their adherents often hold these as true. For the rational, science has provided several apparent answers that fit with the available data. People who find this sufficient will typically consider these questions to be more-or-less answered...or possibly irrelevant. So perhaps you can track down people in either camp who consider the questions answered and ask them if life is dull? Side: No

Who or What is God?, Who or What created God?, How did God created us? Why did God created us? Now, we don't have concrete answers about these. I mean concrete. God is only a term that we created to explain the immensity of the universe. It is not really an answer to the mystery. Sir/Ma'am, I believe in a God and I don't mean to disrespect you. Side: Yes
