Purpose by conscious survival argument

From Aware Theory
  1. People get purpose and meaning in their current lives by the desire to consciously survive as long as possible.
  2. But many people believe that this is the only conscious life that they will ever have after this life
  3. The science of superimmortality predicts that there are many potential nervous systems (potential neuropaths) that will produce in other bodies consciousnesses that you can experience. This means conscious survival after the death of your present body.
  4. If you care about your conscious survival in this life and it gives you purpose and meaning in this life, it can also give you purpose and meaning in this life by helping increase the chance of you will consciously exist again in the future in another body.
  5. You not only want to experience conscious existence again after the death of your current body, But you want this conscious existence in another body to be a good life. How do you work int this life for a good life in future lives?
  6. Increasing the possibility that mankind or conscious beings continue to exist into the future
  7. Making the world as good a place to live as one can so that future versions of yourself will like to and want be alive. There are many awful future world scenarios that no one would want to consciously exist in.
  8. There can be conscious versions of you that exist now. As a consequence, what you do now you can make their lives better or worse.
