Unflinchingly Dawkins offers an answer.
Richard Dawkins - The Big Question: Why are we here?

User Comments:
Just because we can categorize and analyze to the detail these feelings of love, meaning, and hope does not mean that it doesn't exist. How can you say love doesn't exist even in the hypothetical? Animals exhibit forms of "love", or affection to the point of mating. Is it possible that our very definition of love is flawed for us to think that it has the same possibility of existing as God.

And as much as many people love Richard I doubt anybody has quoted him as giving the absolute answer. We know that close affection and the desire to better our situation (hope) is as much to humans as a physical body part. How is God, or the thought of God anywhere close to that?

And ultimately, it isn't all too much of a stretch to suggest that the "ultimate" question is pointless. Over thousands of years of human existence we haven't found out the answer or even came close. We can't even seem to understand the question.
