Asking for the meaning of life is a category error. Meanings are properties of symbols - and life, as far as we know, is not a symbol. So asking for its meaning is like asking for the taste of starlight. To vainly chase the sun's flavor is to ignore the majesty of its radiance.
Meaning is by its very nature what we want it to be. We choose what the word "apple" means. Nature didn't apply the word "Apple" to apples, we did. In other countries, other words are used for apples. Hence, the meaning of the word "apple" is subjective.

When someone decides that the meaning of life is to follow Christianity, that's subjective also. Unless you believe Jesus really is the son of God?
