If you could ask Dickens and Hemingway the point of the universe, how do you think they'd answer? I think that Dickens would say that we should be good on this Earth so that we have a good life in heaven or something like that (so that God would be pleased with us, not like bribery though), and Hemingway would probably say that there is no point or that the point of the universe is to survive. Do you think that they would speak differently? Do you agree with what they might say? Why?
