As I said before, evolution

I'm just saying there is no truth in the universe but success. The guidelines we make up which function properly to sustain society continue to exist, the guidelines which fail at this endeavor die out. It's all a melting pot of ideas.

I believe the DNA of society is our traditions, the mutation of society is our ideas, the evolution of society is the ideas that flourish. It doesn't matter whether or not we understand some sort of greater purpose. Evolution doesn't necessitate the concept. This is a universe with an eternity to spend, it doesn't really know what to do, and it's just making it up as it goes along.
