Once we observe an ant colony for example, we clearly see individuals having goals that extends to the whole species. The same holds for human species. Observation of human societies in sufficiently long time spans gives us clear evidences of goals that can be attributed to humans as a whole.
All of life has a goal as a whole. Expansion and adaption.
That is why life has many different forms.
