What if the end goal turns out to be an entire human consciousness? Say that we as a human society lost all semblance of what we see now as individuality and gained a greater sense of being. For example we would feel the thoughts of others and would be joined for the same causes. It would be like a computer based hive-mind idea. I think this is a way for society to stop fighting and gain much. This is all science fiction of course. But what would you think if things began turning that way?

It's a reference to Isaac Asimov's series. The Foundation books shaped my ideas about the universe and a lot of things.
