But you do think there is but one subjective mind that is god, that you, and we, are god, and that this god also "orchestrates qualia" to create the world we experience and "imposes on you", don't you?
In a nutshell I am of the opinion that 'reality' amounts to One Being who imposes numerous ordered experiences upon itself all related to 'the universe'. This consciousness, this experience, of being a human amidst the universe is ultimately that Being's consciousness/experience. I feel justified in labelling that Being 'God' as - if I'm right, which I'm sure that I am - it clearly has the power/creativity/knowledge to be labelled thus.
Don't you also feel you have some sort of divine mission to spread this idea?
Not really, which is why I speak about it less frequently these days and only ever in this forum when I do. I did feel though that it was important for me to speak my mind though, which I've done. There's no point in me repeating arguments I've already made to more-or-less the same members, though occasionally I still have new ideas and will start new threads if and when those ideas arise.
The point raised was that "god delusions" are due to schizophrenia. What do you think of that?
I obviously think that it's a load of bollocks. And since I'm now used to atheists taking the piss and downplaying my philosophy, often nastily, I personally couldn't care less what some half-wit in an atheist forum chooses to call me.
I hope that you're well Graham. You've never had much if any charity for my philosophy, but on the whole you're one of the few who has treated me respectfully and has given me the opportunity to discuss it seriously, so hat's off to you.
