> dhw: The fact that we are self-aware is certainly of tremendous significance (to us), but it does not mean that Nature is aware of us, let alone that it consciously cares about us. The fact that evolution arrived at us does not mean that the forces which drive evolution ... perhaps your unknown mechanism in DNA or my "intelligent cell", plus the environment ... are aware of us or consciously care about us. That is what I mean by impersonal.-Whatever you want to call Nature, an inoganic universe is interconnected by a quantum network. You are ignoring the fact that consciousness is required for quantum research. I think we have a strong inference that the universal quantum network is conscious and our brain has learned to use it. Our consciousness is not emergent. Only the methodological materialists in science and the atheists believe that it is.
