Very meaningful (😜) session! We looked at the senses of nihilism (ie, meaning/value/knowledge) & how might connect with science, also consequences of aiming for objective understanding of world. Explored, if not god/religion, what might make a meaningful/worthwhile life via evolution and the sacred
