The meaning of life
Can we read the meaning of life from the DNA sequence? Today we finally have the complete genetic information of all human chromosomes from one telomere to the next, the so-called gapless assembly:

What does this tell us about the meaning of human life?
Nothing, basically. Meaning of life is not linked to biological features per se.
What do you think is particularly special about the so-called "gapless assembly"?
We've had a partial version of one human genome for 20+ years and it certainly didn't live up to the hype of "cure all diseases! unlock the mystery of aging! learn your exact risk of [heart disease, cancer, etc]! etc".
Yes! The meaning of the life is reproduce similarity !
But, for who is this meaning - is not clear !
According my opinion this meaning is for our creator !
The live is a molecular system for reproduction of similar super molecular structures. According physics this is possible, because there is a laws that make possible super molecular structure. Order in this supramolecular structures is so complex that for sure somebody did this job.
Yordan Manasiev where is that in the paper? Science only, this is not a place to share your religious beliefs.
The question is philosophy problem ! My answer is also philosophy. The philosophy is a mother of all scientists.
Yordan Manasiev , your answer is a way to avoid philosophy claiming the need for a superior being to shape human evolution. In other words, it is not the source for science or the mother of all scientists. Keep your religious beliefs to yourself and do not use them to make scientific claims. It is dishonest.
