I guess I’m just being a nihilist or I just think this is fun to think about so I’ll enjoy seeing what people have to say.
To articulate the best that I can. I don’t know if all of existence has an end goal or if it’s “kinetic sculpture” that simply meant to change and evolve through every imaginable demention, but if the existence does have a goal what would it do after that achievement?
Would existence constantly create?
I’m not a person that thinks the universe has a meaning or goal, so maybe I’m not the right person to answer. I view it similar to any natural process that you’re already familiar with. Think of a waterfall. What’s the goal of a waterfall? What happens after it completes it’s goal? The way I see it is it’s just doing a thing and after it runs out of water to fall, it just becomes something else (a cliff, or just a “not-waterfall”).
After the universe runs out of “stuff to do” it’ll probably be the heat death (just nothing happens anymore) or a big crunch where effectively another round of it “creating” and destroying things will begin again.
I actually really enjoy the cyclic Big Crunch theory. I imagine that it’s [probably] impossible to know which cycle we’re currently on but seems unlikely that we’re on the first cycle… For me, it truly confronts human exceptionalism and forces us to think about alternative versions of life.
