The Urantia book is an attempt to reconcile Christianity and Eugenics with the multiverse. It's good reading and could replace the Bible for some who havea more intergalactic, less earthly bent. Very, very interesting reading. Because of AI research, my views these days are evolving towards materialism. Don't know where it'll finally end up. ~PM From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [agi] God Date: Sat, 27 Dec 2014 17:56:14 -0500
I wouldn’t say that is God, perhaps in the past it might have been. We can now imagine every organism over billions of years on earth, all the DNA, the computation, the memory, etc.. God would be that thing that is always beyond our grasp contemporarily. We figure something out new then more stuff gets rendered to keep us out of the know. Things get rendered or “simulated”. We figure out how to wormhole to the edge of the universe well then there gets more stuff put up for us to decipher. What does that say what God is psychologically? Not existing is existing. BTW the Urantia book looks interesting. There was a book I purchased that was advertised in Omni Magazine early ‘80s that I cannot remember but might be similar, I cannot remember name or author… L John From: Piaget Modeler via AGI [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, December 27, 2014 4:22 PM To: AGI Subject: [agi] God This sounds like the notion of God in the Urantia Book. In that book the author(s) say that one of the manifestations of God is (mentially or spiritually) connected to every living creature so that it can experience every sensation of every creature.
