Philosophy is overrated. Experience is key. It doesn't take a lot of mumbo jumbo philosophy concepts to understand a few simple things. Without
consciousness nothing would exist. I'm not sure how anyone would assume that free will can't exist within this concept. The physical reality we are
in isn't all that physical, at all. Your hand never touches a basketball or beer bottle. It's simply two forces repelling each other. It's a
PROGRAM, and it can't logically be any other way. Bacteria can be programmed with ones and zeros, the so called building blocks of matter are most
empty space, and so are you. The only reason why you don't fall through the ground is because of mathematical programs called physics, the laws of
nature. The only way these can work is through programming. DATA. The only reason why this physical universe was created by consciousness is for
experience and lowering entropy. As funny as it may sound, the physics of the frequency of what we call love is the end result of all the hard work
here, and it takes duality in order to understand the difference between right and wrong. Only physical reality produces consequences for one's
actions. We are consciousness fundamentally, consciousness was here before anything else was, and everything that exists is a result of consciousness
becoming aware of itself and evolving. Consciousness and its goal of lowering entropy of the whole system is an evolutionary process. You are a small
individuated drop of that thrown into an evolving program of experience that is a subset of a greater reality. Sure, the future may be a probability
set based on calculations from the past to the present, and you can determine the future to some extent, but only so far out. Then things get fuzzy
because calculations begin to fail too far out, just like a simulation. Free will can and do alter these calculations. None of this has anything to do
with religion, and it would all exist quite well without religion. Beliefs and dogma are a crutch to humanity. There are ways of knowing things
outside of the system we are in even if you don't think so or believe it. One of our goals eventually is to figure this out, but sometimes the single
goal of an individuated consciousness being born into an avatar in this simulation we call the Universe is to simply know what it's like to breathe
oxygen, or experience pain, or to know what it's like to take one's 'physical' life, or give a physical life. The way everything works actually
makes quite a lot of sense. In fact, it seems that there are no unanswered questions about this whole experience. YOU have to be the one to find those
answers though, not by following anyone else or taking someone's word for it, including mine. Discount everything I just said. Find your answers the
best way you see fit. That's what its all about.
