Abstract
ABSTRACT. Humanity has been culturally conditioned by a tendency to explain facts and causes, including the need to understand the transcendence of its own existence. It is necessary to analyze different approaches and theories about the meaning of life in a critical and rational manner. A hermeneutical approach was employed, allowing for the interpretation of the phenomenon in stages. While replicators like genes may explain the existence of complex organisms such as humans in the short term, their future is not guaranteed in the long term. Therefore, in the grand scheme of the universe, we are inconsequential, as our destiny is ultimately destruction.
