Raoul,
I have no argument. As far as your “Cyber Consciousness” goes, there was a computer program named “Lisa”. It was used in a university psychology department. Basically it mimicked human conversation by grammatically analyzing the sentence that was inputted and responded with a question or statement. I think the university had to shut it down because too much computer time was spent on Lisa. You could use a program like Lisa that built it own database from inputs.
What I’m trying to get at is no matter how sophisticated a program you wrote there would still be something missing. I would like to think we are more than flesh and bone. Emotions are more than chemical responses to environmental stimuli. We are more than the sum of our thoughts and experience.
You said you were trying to remove the need to believe in some thing for which there is no proof. That need to believe, as stated earlier, is basic and it stems from fear of the unknown. You have chosen to put your “faith” in science. Even science asks us to believe in unknowns like the case of the “dark energy” that drives the expansion of the universe. Much of science is still just theory yet you directed me to information about the Big Bang as though it was a religious text. (I’m still reading BTW:-)). What about Tech 1? What person, with an open mind, would dismiss his contributions without consideration?
There is no point to this. It is not my aim to change your beliefs or to judge them. What I am finding more important to me now, is how I treat people in this life. It’s not trying to earn “brownie points” to get into heaven. It just feels right. Maybe that’s what we can leave behind. An increase in the frequency of the planet brought about by raising our own level of vibration to a higher state. It sounds much better coming from you know who.

Thanks Raoul for presenting this topic.
I hope I’m not the only one still scratching their head.
