Actually this is unfinished but given the world is so completely fucked, I hope it might help some people. It helped me when I was young and losing respect for the adult world. Is there a God? How do you know? A lot of awful old christian pillars of the community put me right off, but then so do the atheists fervently converting me. It's quite a difficult topic so I have to choose my words carefully.
- All physical matter is fundamentally the same, made from the same sub-atomic particles and subject to the same forces and laws.
- Under the right conditions, physical matter can grow into living organisms.
- Therefore physical matter has an intrinsic property of life. Just as water has the intrinsic property of boiling under the right conditions, matter under the right conditions will form organisms such as bacteria, living toads, squirrels and people.
- A part of the more complex organisms is a conscious mind, a spirit.
- Therefore the ability to form a mind is another intrinsic property of matter and energy.
- The mind of an organism is therefore a subset of all consciousness throughout the universe
- You may call all this consciousness a great spirit. Other names might be God, Allah and Jehovah
- When an organism dies, the energy we call its consciousness will disperse and become one with the greater world again.
