Perhaps the selection processes underlying successive universes
requires the strength of pervasive intelligence to permeate an entire
universe in order for a universe to successfully be born, evolve
and wind down in a manner which regenerates an intelligence
friendly startup singularity.<br>
<br>
A universe which generates sufficient universal intelligence<br>
skews the process.<br>
<br>
The "I'm my own Grandpa" scenario, if you will.<br>
<br>
We may not be able to perceive intelligence of the type required<br>
to underly the darwinian selection process on the universal scale.<br>
<br>
Or perhaps we are a byte, a quantum blip in the process that will
in several billion years yield a single computronium state on the
universal scale.<br>
