That’s because we can only detect and decode so much with our limited 5 physical senses.

“Are you more than just a bag of chemicals?”

No. The substance of the universe isn’t matter, its consciousness. Consciousness is a step above matter. Our bodies are vessels, created by nature, to experience this reality. Objectivity is flawed. If science keeps leaving out consciousness while trying to prove silly things like matter creates life, they’ll have to keep going back to the drawing boards, like they’re doing now. One important thing about science to keep aware of is when scientists keep trying to prove something doesn’t exist, the more they prove it does.

“Evolution’s problem with self-destruction”

This is a part of the nature of the universe: the finite life contained within the infinite as a whole. As I said, who we really are is consciousness, and that is forever.

“Your decisions are not your own”

Again, we’re CONSCIOUSNESS… our brain only decodes this reality for us to experience. Our physical brain isn’t who we are, to think so is complete and utter lunacy.

“Who’s being deceived?”

Again, consciousness supersedes matter. Being able to heal ourselves is an ability mankind will (hopefully) master in the future (obviously far into the future, if there is one). It goes to show just how powerful the MIND (not the brain) really is.

Of course no one will be able to understand this purely with left-brain (so-called) logic – it won’t ever work. The intelligent person will use both ‘halves’ as a whole. Sure, we know the mechanics of our brain (barely), but do we know the mechanics of consciousness? No, we (as a species) don’t. It is of my opinion that if people thought ABOUT thought there would be world peace, no question about it.

“One thing is sure, a great change of our psychological attitude is imminent, that is certain…because we need more…we need more psychology, we need more understanding of human nature because the only real danger that exists is man himself, he is the great danger, and we are pitifully unaware of it, we know nothing of man, far too little. His psyche should be studied because we are the origin of all coming evil.” – Carl Gustav Jung

Love that quote. But, the same goes for us finding out more about the universe. I can tell you one thing, the more we look through a telescope, or a microscope, the more we’re finding about who we are, because we see the seemingly apparent ‘out-there’ universe as we are, not as it is. We know absolutely jack about the universe, because if we were so damn intelligent we wouldn’t have any of the silly problems we have now – that much is just common sense.
