I also don't agree with the conclusion that people performing menial jobs are less conscious than me. And it's not for me to decide what other people's purpose in life may be.
Yes- that is your conclusion. I have no problems with that either. I was just trying to pick holes in Steve's argument by taking his thesis to its logical conclusion (you have to read my previous statements in this thread to see where my argument is coming from). I don't want to adopt a belief system which is not consistent with my reality and leads to lack of empathy in a society
