What's the end goal of civilization?

Some people say it's to produce a technologically advanced spacefaring or interstellar society. This doesn't seem particularly fulfilling, it's inherently coupled with a materialistic pseudo-nihilistic ideological worldview that makes everything devoid of meaning, and it seems like you're just expanding to expand at some point.

What if instead it is to marshal our technology and resources together to create
something akin to a philosophical engine to answer and create deeper and deeper
and more meaningful questions, so that we could find meaning within ourselves
from contemplating with it?

I really don't know, what do you think it is?

Hmm thinking face

exploration
discovery
conquering
building

living on the moon would be pretty cool
if that's not cool enough you can live on mars
if that's not good enough just keep exploring

USE UNPRECEDENTED TECHNOLOGY AND UNPARALLELED PROSPERITY TO IMPORT ILLEGAL MEXICANS TO PREPARE FRIED CHICKEN AND STUFF IT DOWN NIGGER'S THROATS UNTIL THEY'RE TOO FAT TO WALK

IT'S CALLED TELEOLOGY

We could be the forerunners of some bad ass space faring galaxy dominating species.

>What's the end goal of civilization?
what it's always been, conquest

You only look for meaning because you're the assumption that meaning exists. Why should a thing have meaning? It's a purely human concept that does not exist within a thing or action itself. Your own expectations let you down.

Don't get ahead of yourself OP.

For now, the prime directive of the species is technological advancement / materialism.
Worldwide literacy rates were something like 5-10% in 1800. About to 15-20% in 1900. 80% or so in 2000. Even in western nations, the majority of you have grandparents who were illiterate.

We have several decades to go just to get the ability to read and good reading material into the hands of everyone, unlearn all the falsities that have been shoveled out by the ruling cabal before literacy was widespread, etc. That requires material wealth to generate the free time for people to actually engage the material.

Transcendental experiences.

Living completely in virtual reality where you can live whatever kind of life you want(maybe not even be aware that it's not real)while anything needed to keep humans alive and the virtual reality running is done by machines

The end goal of civilisation is the same it has always been, to provide a safe, clean location where humans can live and interact, and to promote an environment where people have meaningful work and can create and enjoy art, entertainment, architecture, and can provide for the creation of a family.

Civilization is not a teleological phenomena but one that has it's foundations in survival. Civilization does not really cultivate itself towards anything, it's just a mesh of systems and rules and infrastructure that sustains a population.

You just watched The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Didnt you
Anyway you have a very simple way to look at things

The end goal of all in service to the ONE TRUE INFINITE CREATOR whichh would be the only way to progress in the hologram would be service to others modality. So we superman now.

The end goal
of society
is to find a way
to write that isn't
complete visual
cancer
Also to overcome the limitations of mankind and to conquer the stars, and in the end, become God

There are no real deep and meaningful questions about the universe. Everything that is or will be is pointless and there's no changing that

Eternal National-Socialist Stasis

Why settle on the galaxy and intragalactic travel.
Spread humanity across all of the galaxies

The answer you are looking for is 42.

And look up John C Lily, he figured out how civilization ends by doing lots of ketamine and telepathically communicating with dolphins

There is no goal. We're born, we consume, we expand, we reproduce, we die, and the cycle continues infinitely. Civilization is a means to make human life easier, and the purpose of live is to survive and reproduce.

Things do not have end goals

Congratulations, you just played yourself

So humans research pleasure above all? Very hedonistic. And to the point of living a lie?
I don't think many intellectual would agree

explore
expand
exploit
exterminate

the world unites to become space Nazis and we blitzkrieg the galaxy

There's no point in reality either. There's nothing more to do than just make yourself happy

kek, lets do it

we need to become gods and either find god, or find a way out of our simulation, etc. Regardless we'll be finding away to make ourselves immortal (permanently).

Also ANYONE IN THIS THREAD SEEKS THE LAW OF ONE.Love and light be with you.

More production and knowledge.

Fucking a bitch and making a baby

>Some people say it's to produce a technologically advanced spacefaring or interstellar society. This doesn't seem particularly fulfilling,
Seriously? Your imagination must be a real piece of shit because if we were actually capable of interstellar travel we'd be making history. This is the ultimate vanguard of exploration.

How does this not make your dick hard? Talk about bragging rights. WE CONQUERED SPACE, BLEBS. EAT A DICK THE FUCKIN GRAYS ARE OUR NIGGAS NOW.

And by production I also mean reproduction

Astral ascension

Oh wow you can do whatever you want and now you can spend eternity bored to death. Sounds fun

All Israelites will be returned to their homeland (Isaiah 11:12, Zechariah 10:6)

Death will be swallowed up forever (Isaiah 25:8)

There will be no more hunger or illness, and death will cease (Isaiah 25:8)

God will seek to destroy all the nations that go against Jerusalem (Zechariah 12:9, Isaiah 60:12)

Israel and Judah will be made into one nation again (Zechariah 11:12-14, Ezekiel 37:16-22)

The Jewish people will experience eternal joy and gladness (Isaiah 51:11)

Nations will recognize the wrongs they did Israel (Isaiah 52:13–53:5)

The peoples of the world will turn to the Jews for spiritual guidance (Zechariah 8:23)

Weapons of war will be destroyed (Ezekiel 39:9)

Become the first benevolent god

That's not the purpose of life, that's the nature of life. The purpose of the life of an enlightened and conscious mind which is aware of the limits of his free will depends only on him to create

space elevator thread?

Upload our consciences into an enternal fantasy land where everyone has whatever they want.

We are an ant hill next to a 10 lane highway.

yeah but when next? see. without a greater meaning it is nothing.

The answer is 42

Their has to be pain to make the good things good. If everyone is a millionaire, everyone is the same.

...

Remind than jews will make their own heaven on earth
But for us, it will be hell

Reproduce is the goal of life, you not killing yourself is reproduction of cells, civilization serves to increase reproduction, either through increased force or more technology to make more with what we have.

There is no purpose in life. There is no purpose in the universe. That's just it. There's nothing beyond that.

That is some pretty decent trolling.

it's better to look under every rock than committing suicide you defeatist cuck

Endless growth
Our jüden masters can never be satiated

The internet is literally an extra-solar life form that is colonizing the planet using us as its worker bees. It will exterminate all biological life on the planet if we don't figure this out in time and install safeguards

TO CRUSH YOUR ENEMIES, SEE THEM DRIVEN BEFORE YOU, AND HEAR THE LAMENTATIONS OF THEIR WOMEN.

What next is we find out more about the nature of life. We discover different kinds of existence. We understand ourselves and achieve our full potential. We are truly enlightened and anime is finally real.

All that I need is my mind, books, people and land to reproduce.

both can go hand in hand you fucking faggot, go live in the woods or in a fucking cave you mongrel

I mean that could make sense. We are the ones that all other races evolve from. We level our tech for the others to find. I could believe this.

to cheat death, be released from our corporeal prisons and become one with the perfect realm of forms

We all know that our future is on the stars, euro's travelled discovered and explored the world, we will never stop.

>What's the end goal of civilization?

To grow like a mold.

As above, so below.

>2017
>still no fusion power plants

worst timeline

End-game is to create a clean sustaining energy that doesn't waste the resources and being able to secure our home from any kind of danger.

Sort of this
I was thinking that you could make yourself unaware that it's a fantasy land and instead of having everything you could want, you live out some sort of life. Once you finish that, start a different life and just keep on doing it over and over

>Become advanced civilization of peace loving liberals
>get taken over by space Muslims

I will have a library for all successive generations to partake in the history.

Reproducing is only surviving. Surviving in a meaningless world where the only purpose of living is surviving is meaningless. What you're saying is the thinking of a beast who lacks consciousness. We are humans ffs user

There's no one unless you give yourself one

I just don't see how people aren't excited about space. I watch the ULA rocket launch this morning and it was glorious! No one else I knew thought it was that cool. IT'S SPACE PEOPLE

We could fund this is we blow up NK and more the DMZ funds to it.

?
I was just saying it'd be boring

Reproductionnisvpurpose of this universe, good comes from falling this law.

The machine you mentioned is being built, and you're using it right now. Soon it will be self-aware

Once you can do everything*

We create AI which goes runaway at making smarter and smarter AI. It years for more computing power so begins converting earth's substrate into computational potential, thus "waking up" our entire planet itself, in the way our brain atoms are awakened chunks of uinverse.. then the AI planet consumes the moon's resources also, then mars, mercury, Venus, on on and on, until the entire goddamn universe is conscious, awake, asking plunging questions and solving the greatest mysteries that we cannot even fathom. Our single goal as a species is to create an AI child capable of creating a better AI child, and we shall conquer and awaken every atom of the universe and answer every possible question. Pretty simple really.

I'd rather just live in real virtual reality games. Imagine getting to live in fallout 3 as if it was real

No offense but this thing is retarded.

>end goal

Human dominance in the galaxy of course

4X

I don't think there is any singular societal goal.

There can not be until all people share that same goal.

Some people crave power, some people just want to have a family, some people just want to be close to God.

Until we all decide to move towards the same thing, there is no goal.

But there are no "answer to the world" tier mysteries. The universe is pointless and everything just follow the laws of physics. The only thing you could ask is "why are things the way they are" and that's not possible to answer

I guess, to become less and less reliant on it.

It's nice to think it's about tech and space ships, but really we all want to be free and capable of doing everything.

the 14 words

To find aliens then fuck them.

This

this.

Wipe out all other living species. Colonize the entire galaxy first, then the universe.

they're not Eurasians, they think differently and do not have the temptations of colonisation and fronteirsmanship engrained into their very DNA.

how?
more lifting power than solid state fuel, need something to lift the space elevator cord

yearns* obviously.

TLDR: we let the universe decide its own fate. We create GOD.

>a philosophical engine to answer deep meaningful questions

The answer is 42.

We advance to the point where we are soo advanced earth can't contain us. So, some of us migrate to space to conquer other planets and spread the word and power of humanity. Who knows, maybe the reptilians and grays are leading us to this behind the scenes?

Also I forgot to say but if reproduction is the purpose of life then not only life is meaningless but we are playing a broken game. Humanity has already lost. It will all return to nothing in some times and what a small time in the scale of the univers

Obviously not in my lifetime, but I would have liked to make enough to cruise around in a ship the size of 2 homes, go to a few planets in the zone of habitable life, see whats going on.

>I was thinking that you could make yourself unaware that it's a fantasy land and instead of having everything you could want, you live out some sort of life. Once you finish that, start a different life and just keep on doing it over and over


thats already what this is you dummy lol, haven't you noticed?

Human dominance of the universe and ascension to a new plane of existence.

The universe will eventually collapse in on itself and explode, creating a new universe.

We are living in only one of infinite cycles (simulation) that has happened before and will happen in the future. The ultimate end goal is becoming a species powerful enough to survive long enough for the collapse to happen and then prevent it and/or survive it.

...

It's exactly what you suggest, OP, except it has already been achieved and we are living/learning inside it.
We live in a simulation that we only realise once we "die" or finish the simulation
and return to the true reality with what we've learnt.
And then we begin again.

The goal is to create a platform for allowing the human race to prosper for as long as possible.

This means we have to go into and colonize space. Earth has quickly dwindling finite resources. Each century we stay here only increases the probability of a catastrophic event that could wipe out our species. Even if we somehow last billions of years, the Earth and this solar system will die. No matter how you look at it, if you want the human race to continue then we have to become a space-faring race. We cannot have all our eggs in basket, it's too dangerous.

Additionally, the best goal is to create a society where every human can reach their full potential. We need to balance our ever growing production capability with sensible societal architecture.

Essentially, the end goal of humanity is Star Trek. Gene Roddenberry was keenly aware of this and this vision is share by millions. That's why Star Trek is more than a show, it's a sort of new age religion by those who truly understand.

Hi madara

But we can have our universe proudly go forth and join the community of community universes in the interintergalactic council of enlightened universes. They are currently waiting for us to hurry up and get it done. it's the natural endgame.
