[The All,1]
Does God require consciousness? It a rock conscious? Is a tree? A new born child without any experiences or learning? If God is indeed all things, wouldn’t he be both conscious and unconscious? Can one be said to be superior to the next in the grand scheme of things? The forces of the universe guide our lives. If they were to cease we would as well. Gravity, the roaring sun, the elements that we feed upon as readily as we would animal and plant flesh. It may seem simple to be egoists gazing upon the great city scapes of human civilization, seeing what is clear to our eyes. What however of the foundation we all rest upon? Is God any less the earth than he is of man? Any less of the stars than of mans soul? Would God be any less if he were as much element, unconscious yet powerful-as he is a thinking human being?
