Perhaps we can relate this back to our dicussion of if meaning can come from a random event. If we, as humans, are wired to create meaning from nothing, as seen in Atran's box experiment, then is there really a such thing as meaning? Or is it something that humans are falsifying? 

I guess what I'm trying to say is that this whole idea of meaning, of people believing in their purpose and origin, is a cultural value that could just have been imagined. They're drawing conclusions based on no observations. And does that make it any less real?
