9月21日 Ramblings mostly re: ReligionInitial ramblings
Oh God. I do not know what you are or where you are, but my very nature of being believes in "somethingness, somewhereness".
I see now, after years of life, that lack of guidlines for life can indeed be a number. My bible has been my positive view on myself and the nature of man, that of humanism. Inside, when the ego is removed, all we really want is peace and two-way love. Hatred, anger and revenge are products of the ego. Bad stuff.
I am yet, if ever, to find a given religion which is my path to trod, my religion is an evolution. And I.. enjoy the process.
The spark of divinity inside myself, that which I sense, is this shared by all living things?
There is an omnipresence in nature that suggests so. All life on earth, even plants and trees, share energies that are, at least to me, perceived as divine. "God is everywhere" - yes I like that statement. I believe that "God" in this sense equals "life" or "divine life", not a single intelligent omnipotent, fatherless being.
The theory of earth as a godly aquarium:
For arguments sake, put yourself in the shoes of a God.
You could create a world, like this, much like an aquarium.
You would be able to study this earth, watch is evolution, and thusly enjoy the very results of its biological process. The biological process would, if centered on mans evolution, output results like art, politics, litterature, religions and so forth. So your aquarium (or biological experiment if you like) outputs results of the human mind, like the arts of Bach, Led Zeppelin and Dali.
Would this in itself not be enough to continue safekeeping of your aquarium? The next product of human creative evolution would be like a christmas presents value to a child.
If you were the owner of this aquarium, would you ever have a reason to interfere with its evolution by revealing yourself and the nature of things that really are? Surely such an action would halt the productive process in your aquarium.
So do I believe in God? I do not know what God is. I do not believe in a living thing without a father or creator.
I do not believe in an omnipotent single source of everything.
At least not yet.
For now I believe in higher than human intelligence. The world around and inside us is too marvelous to have been accidental.
I believe that there are alternative worlds, aquariums like our own. If intelligence created this world, surely other worlds would be created or populated.
Mankind as god
One day, we may DNA-program the spores of mushrooms with human DNA and send human spores into the dark, cold of the universe. Mushroom spores are the densest natural organic known to man, able to withstand the coldness of the universe, and able to penetrate protective shields like our stratosphere. If these "intelligent" spores land on unintelligent (by human standards) but habitated worlds, we may somehow spread our human seeds.
Maybe the father of nano-technology can construct and even send flie-like organic beings/machines in the same fashion. These flies "radio" back the actions, lives and cognitive results of the worlds where our spores spark life.
Then we too have our aquariums.
Outro
Indeed biological machines are an evolutionary step after light-based processing (which supercedes electricity) and nano-technology. Biological machines work in 3 dimensions and as "cells". Oh dang, i'm straying from my religios topic, oh well, it's my blogg and well... its g'nite for now.
love, love, love |
