In biology, evolution has no evident purpose or goals. Philip Goff contends that the universe is conscious or is consciousness (?) and that its purpose is value (rational matter achieving a higher realization of its nature). Does then the universe evolve toward enhanced value? We know the universe is expanding which to my thinking means it is evolving. We, the human species, are part of that universe and are moving along with it achieving a higher realization of our nature. What the hell does that mean? That the universe is conscious and is acting toward the purpose of realizing the full potential of its consciousness?
