    Don't be pedantically foolish. We can decide what we wish to do as individuals and as a species within the physical constraints that exist. And we can decide to test those constraints at every opportunity.

    I may not be able to grow hair at my command, but I can support gene research that will enable my children to do so in the near future.

    I can rule my own country as a voting citizen in a democracy.

    I can decide if either or both of these actions are desirable and act accordingly.

    I decide purpose.

    You confuse purpose and outcome. Purpose is what we strive for, outcome is what we are able to accheive. If my purpose(chosen only by myself)is to become President that does not garauntee that I will accheive my self-chosen purpose. And if I am laboring under the illusion that god has given me the purpose I need psychiatric help, plus it is not garaunteed I will acheive my purpose(ask Sanitorium).

    To try to survive long enough to reproduce. It is the only thing that can be called an objective purpose for any lifeform. All else is self chosen, of no consequence whatsoever to the Universe.

    She still hasn't explained how these limitations suggest purpose to the universe.

    Does the Universe have limits? Maybe the point is to see how far we can go.

    The word universe refers to the number one. Does the number one have any limits?

    Reproducing has consequences for the lifeform, the Universe beyond our Earth will not experience any consequences from that. It won't notice or care one way or the other. But if we fail to reproduce, neither will we.

    Actually, it would be "Plan Et" which could be mean anything from "Plan And" to "Plan Eat" depending on which language you choose to take the word "Et" from.

    Holy mother of god garbonzo there is so much wrong with that post lets starr with yout 2nd sentence.

    Firstly if u think the human bodt is perfect answer me this
    1 why do we have organs that are useless?
    2 why can the human eye only see a very narrow band of the light spectrum
    3 why can thr human ear only hear a limited hz range?
    Dont forget the older you get the worse your eyesight and hearing gets
    4 why doesnt our immuse system kill all diseases in the body..
    Now if humans were created. By a grand enginner called god.. knows all and everything he failed out of Almighty college.

    To have an engineer make a product that puts in shit that if removed does nothing but if fails kills the prodect is a fail of an engineer

    Now if i were god and created perfection.
    1 there visual spectrum woud range from ir to uv. Distance of an eagle gteat vision at night.. immune to disease. Thoes are just starters

    If human evolution is true, why do humans have freewill but chimps dont?* Why do humans have morals and conscience but they don’t?* Why do humans emphasize so much in meaning of life but animals can’t?* Why are humans profoundly distressed by death?

    Garb something for you to think about

    And my favorite.. cuz you and others think evolution could not happen anywhere else. That humans are special

    If you understand evolution then you would understand that each organism has evolved a suite of characteristics that fit it for life in its environment. Now I don't know how you concluded that chimps lack free will - perhaps you chose to make a mistake - but even if they did this would tend to confirm evolution, rather than contradict it.

    Why do birds have wings and people don't? Why do Dolphins have sonar but people don't?

    Because there is no damn evidence for it being correct, demonstrably provable and being the most parsimonious answer to the question of our origins!

    Exactly. Humans are unique because most adaptations are unique. In fact, however, animals do show the beginnings of all those human traits. Elephants are fascinated by death, and apes and dogs have an innate sense of fairness. We happened to get enough of a brain to manipulate abstract symbols, but animals can accomplish this to a lesser degree.
