If the universe is “simply” collection of mathematical equations, then these equations must exist within a mathematical structure. There must be axioms at the foundation of that structure. What then are those axioms and what is thier interpretaion within the universe? Beyond this, we know that no axiomatic system (no “mathematics”) can be complete (there must always exists un provable truths. How would such truths comport with the collection of equations? I feel that there must be more too it, Max. 🙂
As has been observed here by many commentators, we are anthropically significant. This should not be a surprise. It seems that it should be self evident and axiomatic. It has also been observed here that we are, more than mere observers of our univers, an integral part of our univers. We are, from this perspective, what must exists in order for a univers to contemplate inself. From this perspective, it is not we who are significant but, perhaps, it is our univers itself that is significant enough to have become self-aware by way of possessing the needed charactoristics for us to have evolved therein.
