If that wasn't your goal in life you'd already be dead, dead in an infinite possiblility of ways,so in one way or another,one of the most critical meanings for everything there is in the universe is surviving,from the smallest to the biggest.

[QUOTE=Sherow_Xx;41049720]But I think my point is that being altruistic [I]is[/I] also hedonistic.
Being nice to others makes us feel good. Ultimately, being nice to others is 'selfish' in a sense, but it doesn't matter because we're all working together to make life good for each other.[/QUOTE]
Not necessarily. Sometimes doing the right thing can make you feel worse, but you still do it because it's the right thing to do.

uhh what
The meaning of life is to make your life have meaning.
My meaning of life is to create a superior form of life to succeed me and create nice conditions for me and others to live in.

Yea that thought came in my mind too, more exactly nanomachines that can build stuff all by themselfes. a 3d printer with its own immagination and brain. basically a quantum computer+year 2200 artificial inteligence +3dprinting +nanobots+ nanoscale fusion energy reactors and stuff like that.most probably someone will make it in the future but not in our lifetime
people would just doze off and lazy their leisure times away,enjoy their immortality and all the future posibilities,space travel and such, while their nano minions were on the work.

this however won't happen if we keep up with certain lifestyles, or in other words, putting a lot of resources/money/energy in to questionable causes.
