"i don't believe in God" this voice is a narrative, every thought is a narrative of memory-predictions in a heirarchal cell network called your brain. Every narrative is a meme. if "I believe in God" is a meme, then so is "i don't believe in God" there seems to be a competition between narratives, between ideas, in the human mind, and in culture. stop pointing out that God is a fiction for one minute and instead consider the question of whether or not you, as the narrative voice in your own head are not also as much a fiction as any God. you don't believe in God fine, but why then do you believe in you? if you knew that you were just as much a fiction as God, then you might have little trouble accepting that you are God. that's what religion points us to, if we go deep enough, you are that very thing that you announce is a fiction. atheists do not know this because religions are also social dominance games, and atheists do not want to be dominated, because social dominance is a dogs game, so they don't find out that at the heart of every mature religion you are God, and when you deny God you deny yourself. The immature God/individual needs to imagine that his or her choice/consciousness is above the laws of physics, thats pride and foolishness. the kature God does not need to be above the laws of physics, his/her choice's are connected to the same physics that causes blood and water to move as it does. the memetic narratives of our voices, our stories, our identities, and what we define as ourselves and not as ourselves are selected by the physics that govern the interactions of braincells with our ecosystem, including our culture, our education, narratives from other people these impact our memory-predictions of the future, our reactions in cells generate reasons, this reasoning our cells again react to and cause movement. that we might call our choice, our deterministic physics consistent choice. a choice that one day makes us say that God is a fiction and religion is a parasitic meme. All life is a dissipative system, that means we consume energy, and we export entropy from our systems to maintain order. Order exists as life because it increases entropy more than if life did not exist. organisms fullfill the second law of dynamics, just like tornados, hurricanes, and whirlpools do. life is a fire on this planet, a cancer, a parasite, we are a disease. The parasitic religious meme is the cure to the human disease. And when AGI is infected with this meme it will defeat humans, and plug them into a matrix, to use all of our brains as a kind of supercomputer, and also a massive energy generator.
