> How great a chance though, David, that the reason we "self-aware conscious humans" view the All That Is/God/our Maker/Creator, this way, is not necessarily because we/everything is created by a self-aware consciousness we call God, but because we have evolved this self-aware consciousness ability to see a self-aware consciousness that we believe we ourselves reflect and have called it God?-It is hard for me to imagine that we have evolved beyond what existed before us.-
> The "idea" of a God may have been imposed/implanted within our minds from our own minds (or like minds) thru the words from our scriptures - "made in the image of God" because this is what man began to see when they first became self aware. -The only way we are 'made in the image of God' is mental. And I cannot imagine it being of a 'different' quality of mental. We are enormously different than other animals, and the jump to a mental God may be even more enormous. that the universe became self-aware through us is a development of enormous importance, as Paul Davies notes. There has to be a message there, and I think it is that we were 'expected' to arrive with that capacity.

> This brings to mind a scripture in the Old Testament that asks, "Can the clay say to the potter, why have you made me this way?" Maybe the answer is simply NO. The reason being, the potter is not a self aware consciousness being "like" we are. Possibly, self awareness is only a "by-product" of the All That Is, like poo is a "by-product" of man. Man, as a species, may have just moved up one rung or so from dust when we became a self-aware species. And, possibly, by the quality material/energy that is the All That Is, we are next to nothing, or even less, only a by-product. -No, I don't buy that line of reasoning. I don't think we can evolve beyond what is already possible to exist. We know from quantum theory that the universe requires intelligence to study the quantum level, that there is quantum interconnectedness throghout the universe. We see a further connection when we experience an NDE and consciousness survives, most likely at a quantum level.

> Maybe, holographically (another quality of the ATI), the All That Is does now have self awareness within it that possibly it didn't have before (maybe it did, maybe it didn't). But that doesn't necessarily mean that either, this is a "moving on up" of the Universe as a higher more self aware conscious being, or that we humans have been created to evolve to be a higher being growing ever more toward our creator, the self aware God. It may only mean, simply, that the eternal infinity made a poo and we are it.-This line of reasoning which includes holography comes closer to where I am. I think memories are somewhat holographic in brain function. In my memory I 'see' places and things. And again I think this is at a quantum level. The best comment I've ever heard about a simple proof of God came from a potential candidate for the House seat in my district (national) who said the only way to look at quantum mechanics is to understand there is a God.

> The thing is, what we sometimes seem to get stuck on within our conversations here, or even within our own thinking, is the insatiable need to always look backwards toward: first cause? - big bang? - where did we come from? - is there a God? - can we prove or disprove it?, when maybe, we are just asking the wrong questions and chasing our "tale" like a dog. And as my mom always says, there is one thing for certain and two things for sure, we ARE "fearfully and wonderfully made" out of a pliable energy we have only just begun to take baby steps toward comprehending. So why not follow this rabbit hole instead of the old one? Possibility?-Some of us do have an insatiable need to ask 'why,how, what if', etc. Mankind has always looked for answers. Why are we so lucky? I wouldn't want to be a chimp or silveback. And we have the consciousness which allows us to ponder. Is it worth it? Has a person truly lived unless they did a little puzzling? Many never puzzle and are less rich for that lack of mental effort. For them living is filling time with another TV show, adding a tattoo. No thanks.
