If Life is Meaningless Anyway, then What's Wrong with Religion?

[Arkilogue]

From an evolutionary perspective, wouldn't it make sense for people's will to live to erode as they entered old age?  And from a sociological perspective, the goals we are told make our life a life well-lived are usually well in the rear view mirror when you hit your 80's or 90's.  

From both perspectives, at a certain point, you've done it.  You've successfully human'd it up.

The kick about being a human is that you aren't limited to learning from your own mistakes in a linear fashion, you can learn from other's mistakes in non-linear accumulation and make quantum leaps of internal growth.

"Human? Where we're going, we don't need...human." ~Doc Brown.

That mode of travel becomes no longer necessary. We have engineered new vehicles based on higher laws.
