MyBlogLog and the meaning of life

So I’ve been poking around at MyBlogLog.com—let’s connect if you’re a member—and earlier today I came across something that really made me smile. Buried among the usual fare on their FAQ page is this question:

What is the meaning of life?

And this answer:

What we've come up with can be reduced to two fundamental concepts. One, people are not wearing enough hats. Two, Matter is energy. In the universe, there are many energy fields, which we cannot normally perceive. Some energies have a spiritual source, which act upon a person's soul. However, this soul does not exist automatically, as orthodox Christianity teaches, but has to be brought into existence by a process of guided self-observation. However, this is rarely achieved due to mankind's unique ability to be distracted from spiritual matters by everyday trivia.

Not sure I agree exactly, but kudos to them for giving it a go. Who says FAQs have to be dry and boring?
