There could be no possible function for an actual paradise. Why could consciousness possibly exist if all it could to do was pleasure itself 24/7? There would be no change, and without change, no imaginable purpose. Just a masturbatory eternity, where everything felt the same--good.

I'd prefer nonexistence.

Is this paradise meant to be perfect? It won't be boring or meaningless, because that would mean that it's not perfect.

Also, change can be pleasurable and as such not automatically contradicts paradise imho.
