If from a scientific perspective, life is devoid of meaning, why is science important? It may be important to us, but why is anything important to us important at all then?
Wouldn't it be equally meaningless?
Wouldn't truth also be meaningless?
Wouldn't getting worked up about this or any other comment be even more, yet paradoxically, equally meaningless?
If all of these things are meaningless, then why do anything in response?
Perhaps meaning is something that is inherently subjective because it requires purpose and value? Perhaps the most important things, such as what is essentially valuable, is something that we just decide or feel, without there being a lot of science to do around it and therefore can never be understood in objective and therefore scientific terms? Maybe science is great for understanding the known, but fails as knowing the evident yet unseen?
idk why people keep falling under the impression that science will provide them with meaning. It's not a religion. it won't. It's merely a tool imo.

Or reply here. Either is fine, really.
Have a nice day! :)
I don't think that subjective means arbitrary. A book may mean different things to different people, but that doesn't mean that one interpretation is as good as any other. Or that reason is abandoned in the process of forming a subjective idea.
I like your take and couldn't agree more.
