			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Consider the question posed by Anaximander: Why are we put upon the earth?</p>
<p>I pose the question to note three different ways of thinking about Darwin. The first would conclude that the question is meaningless because there is no purpose to our existence, but rather only evolutionary processes. The second would think the question meaningful because Darwin got his facts wrong. Evolution doesn&#8217;t explain how we eneded up as we are. The third would argue that, even if Darwin got his facts right, the question might still be meaningful.</p>
<p>Only the third response attracts me.</p>
<p>And what answer did Anaximander give to the question? &#8220;To behold!&#8221;</p>
