A derivation using dozens of pronouns that either have no clear
referent or are logically contradictory. But I believe we may have
been through this before.

The primary cause may be attached to the word "God",
but we both know that is not the only attachment, so is "a being
who can think".

You talk as if theologians have solved the problem, but they have
not.

OK I won't confuse it, and I'll avoid confusion by ignoring
both. To hell with the ancient Greeks!

If there were nobody around to think about the number 2 and if
there were not 2 of anything in the entire physical universe, then
would the number 2 exist? And if it did, how would things be
different if it didn't?

I'll say this for the catholics, their view of God is clear,
clearly wrong but clear nevertheless. Your view of God isn't even
wrong.

And all correct computations need matter that obeys the
laws of physics. For some reason I'm feeling Deja Vu right now, I
can't imagine why.

Well you sure as hell better be interested in incorrect
calculations if you want to avoid them! So I ask yet again , how
can you, how can even God separate correct numerical relations from
incorrect ones without the help of matter that obeys the laws of
physics? You can't do it I can't do it and God can't do it.

Everybody has a theory on consciousness and none of them are
worth a damn, I'd be much more interested in a
theory of intelligence.

Well, I may be brainwashed but according to you I'm smarter
than God because I can think and God can't.

Wow, calling a guy known for disliking religion religious, never
heard that one before, at least I never heard it before I was 12.
