To me, to live is to fight. It's about persevering. It's about testing yourself. It's about not becoming complacent.
We need to look at NASA, not as a handout, but as an investment.
To assert that the universe has a purpose implies the universe has intent. And intent implies a desired outcome. But who would do the desiring? And what would a desired outcome be? That carbon-based life is inevitable? Or that sentient primates are life's neurological pinnacle? Are answers to these questions even possible without expressing a profound bias of human sentiment?
