But if you understand the above, then the question of purpose becomes meaningless, as you must realize it is a human-dependent description. Otherwise, just as you must ask "Does life have a purpose?" you must ask "Do mountains have a purpose?" or "Does the Universe have a purpose?"

If there is a Newton for a blade of grass, and then you ask whether there is a purpose for the blade of grass, then you must ask about the purpose of gravity.
