In the hagfish cosmology the universe is a great knot, the knot, like all knots, is slowly working itself apart, and when it is at last untied paradise (which is a chunk of the universe we cannot see beyond the knot) will be free'd from the substance of deep space, and all those who are slimy will get to go to paradise.
Those without slime will become a part of a new knot... the next universe.
