<html><head></head><body>A few months ago I asked the list for opinions about the meaning of life for an upcoming book chapter. The book, Transhumanism and Religion: Moving into an Unknown Future, eds. Tracy Trothen and Calvin Mercer, Praeger 2014. http://abc-clio.com/product.aspx?id=2147553420 , is still a few months away. However, I thought the list might like to see a preprint of the chapter: http://www.aleph.se/papers/Meaning%20of%20life.pdf<div><br></div><div>Space restrictions unfortunately forced me to shorten or leave out quotations rather severely; I would have loved going deeper into the discussion we had. Similarly certain dissertations and papers that ought to have been in the chapter also had to be left out - sorry. But it will probably mean that sooner or later I have to write my own book where I have no space constraints and can delve into Ben Goerzel's cosmism or Natasha's meaning of life at the length they deserve... muhahahaha! :-)<br><div><br></div><div><br>Anders Sandberg,
