nothing and everything...depending on your point of view i suppose...which in a hall of mirrors is going to be at best unreliable .we have an incomplete view of the universe (to say the least lol)..the question is does the universe have an incomplete view of us?...even the evoloutionary concept exhibits some sort of pattern...some sort of objective no matter how randomly and unitelligbly arrived at...where did that come from ? why evolve at all?? if not to fullfill some sort of plan? even if it is just "survival of the fittest"...and if that 'aint some sort of a plan then i don't know what else is?
it's a hell of a circular argument i know but it's an entertaining one...we don't know...that's probably half the fun of it..we don't think about this stuff enough..we just rush ahead assuming we are sure of ourselves...assuming we have it all under control...we 'aint got "diddly squat" under control...which is where the contemplation of universe as our home (which might be construed as religious thought) comes in...gawd we aint even "potty trained" as yet (were still ****ting on our home planet) lol bit early to be playing god...

i honestly don't know..which is a relief..but the questions are great !
