why are we even conscious?
we can imagine the same universe filled with the same but unconscious peoples
yet we are all fooled
whats the point?
Being conscious was a beneficial trait for survival of the species, therefore we evolved to have these capabilities.
As for your question as to what's the point, does there have to be one? I admit that I don't know, but it appears that there is no overall point to life. It seems we are merely a by-product of the cosmos and not its end goal, but does that really change things? Whether there is an overall point for our species, we as individuals are still capable of discovering meaning for ourselves as individuals, and to me, that's what matters.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
