"I think that would make the struggle of life meaningless. So I struggle to give my life meaning..... If something works for you, just keep on doing it."

Don't you think that that's being a little pragmatic? When questioned about the nature of the universe, shouldn't we say "We can't be sure, but experiments have shown X and Y to at least be on the right track." instead of "X, because that line of thought works for me."?
