i don.t know why you are trying to argue with me aleialora... I never said the world revolves around me, you are just perceiving what you want to. I never said belief in consciousness as a primary function of the universe is necessary at all, or even a little... I never claimed to be moral... you claim my thoughts are empty but you are unwilling to argue why they are empty, you just attack them as such without any logic. I don't have anything to offer you besides my argument, which is my own personal opinion. I don't know what you are looking for; all any of us have are our own personal opinions... Mine just happen to be rational and logical. I may be wrong... very wrong. Until someone logically explains how my argument is not valid, however, I am forced to persist in my belief. The probability of me being wrong is irrelevant.
I never said anything would be "bad" with a purely mechanical universe where nothing had inherent value or meaning. Indeed, if that is the case, "good" and "bad" don't exist at all, so nothing could either be good or bad.
Your statement that there are signs that animals have morals and feelings actually supports my argument for consciousness as a primary function of the universe rather than a purely mechanical universe... Morality in animals supports the existence of something that would properly be termed "God".
