Well, I can't really imagine what it would be either, which is why I just called it a driving force and not something more specific. I've just been jaded to the world of science and seeing how something can screw up by one tiny mistake in the genetic code, I am constantly amazed anything survives at all. It's the whole "life finds a way" thing. Though you make a very good point about time.

Basically, what I firmly believe is life boils down to two things. Change is constant and so is the universe. As long as those things remain, even if another singularity occurs, life will always happen. The human species will most definitely end...even if it is millions of years from now. Life won't, however.

I keep wanting to add "given enough time" to everything now. Maybe time is the driving force.
