Philosophy

Concepts have always existed since the beginning of time since the first alien civilization and are basically a law of physics because they are universal and unchangeable.
It is up to us as sentient being to use discernment to choose between concepts keeping the good ones and discarding the bad ones for our personal use.
Matter and energy have always existed in the universe and were put there in the beginning of time also.
It is up to us as sentient beings to use discernment in collecting resources and information and using it to better ourselves and our environment creating value for ourselves out of what was worthless.
You could say that both concepts and the matter in the universe since put there in the beginning of time were a gift from the god that created the universe and that none are truly ours but are only given to us. It could just as easily be said though that since there are both good and bad concepts and bothe good and bad environments and good and bad energy that what was given to us could be considered both a blessing and a curse.
The only real conclusion to all of this though is that it is up to us to choose the environment that we wish to live in out of what is available. The freedom of choice. That is the meaning.

What if in the course of history there have been particular individuals of different species that through the course of their lives had experienced a certain concept, and that their embodiment of that concept was so complete and extreme that when they died because of their vast knowledge of the concept they and proven worth that they gained a special place or seat in the universe as a god of that concept. And that each concept has it's own god. concepts such as "determination", or "vengeance" or "mischief".
This would be a very entertaining way for the entertainers(as I call them) to run the universe. This is how I would probably run the universe because of the entertainment value and for the wisdom value and governance value.
