    Hi,

        ISTM that purpose is a 1p, so to ask the question in a 3p
    sense is to make it meaningless.


That´s it.


But to insist into make the question in 3p may force the introduction of an implicit 1p that contemplate the 3p, that is, a metamind , with a metatime etc. (To avoid pavlovian responses, i don´t mention the G. world). That is the meaning of my previous response.

Hi Alberto,

    But the meta versions would be 1p's in their own right, no?

            So does this explain the PURPOSE of the universe or merely
            a dominant FUNCTION? The blind exercise of function
            doesn't seem to me to include the global concept of
            purpose. The use of this word is about my only gripe with
            it. I could be wrong.

            Cheers,
