Interacting with Richard Dawkins - Part I

Solomon knew what he was talking about

Since essentially all "respectable" scientific theories about the ultimate fate of the universe are grim, with the cosmos either tearing apart, "crunching" in on itself or fizzling out trillions of years into the future, it is logical to conclude that life is utterly meaningless, pointless and hopeless. If we devote all of our energy, knowledge, technology and time for the further development, enlightenment and evolution of our species, we ultimately do so in vain. For even if our species were to reach an evolutionary and technological plane of the highest scientific proportions and possibilities it would still be faced with a future of unstoppable destruction. Why then do we even bother? If there is any "evolved" sense of mercy within us we should devote all of our efforts to bringing the entirety of the human race to a quick, swift and painless end so that we may spare our descendants the terror of that dreaded day. Evolution is a cruel master who does nothing but get our hopes up all the while leading us to ultimate and complete annihilation and rendering null and void the blood, sweat and tears of seemingly endless eons of time.
