Since Im feeling bored, I may as well pass on this muse:
We are that superposition of quantum states, as is our food. It is collections of atoms eating collections of atoms. If this were completely true, why would nature evolve us through random experimentation (instilling a survival of the species law) into beings that fear death and value life in general.
I wonder if justifying moral behaviour only makes sense if there exists god (not necessarily in a religious sense but as a set of laws and parameters arising from some predefined constraint written by a grand designer). Any other hypothesis regarding right or wrong-doing might ultimately be considered meaningless since the value of life would likely be nil-pwa in a completely random chaotic universe.
