In the "Life" cycle that you refer to, it's been shown - over and over again - that left to it's own devices, the effect is over use of resources. Which leads to destruction of the home ship.

absolutely, Life is utterly ruthless and driven, uncaring of consequence. that we, humanity, are aware of our ioveruse of resources, simply indicates that we are the first oflife's experiments to show a glimmer of awareness regarding our survival in a universal context.

In reply to:
I posit that it goes to follow that the TRUE purpose of all life is actually what we humans refer to as death. Personally, I see this phase as the "rest stage" in part of the cycle. Within the rest stage is bliss.

Think not? Are the scenes within dreams more sublime that those of the walking day(if not, perhaps lay off the mind altering substances and lessen youe stress, both of which interfere). It's been shown(through science) that the mind and body heals during sleep phase. Is vacation time not more wonderful than the work between? Do not injured beings recoup through rest?

Happie, this "rest stage" you speak of is integral to and inseparable from Life. studies have also shown that if the individual is deprived of the "rest stage", there are serious health, and thereby survivability, consequences. So, your argument isn't really that far removed from what I'm going on about.

You see, Robb - your illusion does not extend beyond the realm of "life" and that is the crux that must be overcome in order to see the flaw in your theory.

I admit to being essentially a physicalist.
"beyond the realm of life..." hmm. the realm of life includes death. My mortality is close to me and walks with me every day - that final oblivion adn non-existence. dreams are your brain running a defrag.

calling what i've written a theory, is overly flattering I think. but ,thanks ;-) its barely a hypothesis. does this constitute a peer review?

In reply to:
We all - all - seek to return to the primordial ooze. the state of "non," where we just "are."

In reply to:
But - no problem, if you don't see it that way. Most don't.

in this last comment, as related our differng personal ideas on this topic - which is likely the best hijack I've ever commited - we find congruence in our experience.
