Perspective, or Point of View, is used throughout the wiki to reinforce the notion that metaculture is simply a way of interpreting science and religion and makes no specific factual assertions about either beyond the Pantheistic assumption that god is not separate from the universe itself.
metaculture is not about any specific path to happiness, rather it's the notion that utilitarian happiness should be the primary goal for ourselves and our society.
It doesn't matter whether the universe started with the Big Bang, or if it always has existed, if there are multiple universes, how many dimensions there are, or any other cosmological specifics that have no bearing on whether the universe operates according to physical laws that cannot be broken only revealed in greater detail through experiment.
It doesn't even matter if the universe follows a fractal pattern or if some other mathematical model represents it better. The fractal is a useful metaphor for understanding complex systems and a metaphor is often still valid even after we gain a deeper understanding of the real thing it describes. And while significant updates would be required to replace it, even the fractal god could be replaced if a better analog is found.
