"The universe doesn't care about us" =/= "the basis for meaning doesn't care about us". That is, "the laws of physics" =/= "the source of meaning".

- Aperocky 7y agoWhat is the basis of meaning then, if it cannot be defined in a physical space then it is something that is artificial and to our own consciousness only.
- syrrim 7y agoSuppose we could identify some basis for meaning that we could be reasonably sure would be shared with beings in other universes - a Schelling point for meaning, if you will. Such a thing would be neither based on the laws of physics, nor restricted to our consciousness. Whether or not it would be "artificial" remains open to interpretation.
