I'm afraid you've been beaten to the punch buddy. Lamarck nipped in with that one just ahead of you. I recommend you discover Mendel's genes next, and you'll hopefully understand why the idea of conscious evolution was discarded.

Evolution driven by desire, I don't totally agree with that, but I do believe in evolution driven by "mental focus".

My Buddhist view of the world leads me to believe that it is not the brain that generates the mind, but rather the mind which generates the brain, as well as the rest of the body.

I think that our deluded consiousnesses produce this physical form that we consider to be "The World" but our conciousness is evolving all the time, and as such, the physical form which we inhabit also evolves.

So I suppose I really do believe in ID, but the intelligence is not God, it is us! We are all our own God and we create ourselves.

Wow, that was pretty deep for me.

Interesting story any truth to it?

Unfortunately, Einstein became an atheist sooner or later.

Actually Einstein was a "deist". He had no choice but to conclude that there was something, after he realized that the Universe had a beginning...

"I believe in Spinoza's God who reveals himself in the orderly harmony of what exists, not in a God who concerns himself with fates and actions of human beings."

Doesn't give him salvation though... But he was close...

I wonder, for those who believe in life after death .... what ol' Albert Einstein might be thinking (and "doing") right now! Maybe he's adding to his theories, with a little help from even Greater Geniuses! Hmmm ....

Jeannot presented this scripture in another thread, but man did it strike home for me concerning Evolution and Man, vs ID and Man.

"The land shall not be sold permanently, for the land is Mine. You are but aliens and sojourners with Me." (Leviticus 25:23)


To be "alien" is to not be part and parcel of the original. To be a "sojuorner" is to be a traveler who seeks.

In short, we are not of the earth, but alien to and travelers over...

We don't "own" this planet because we are not from this planet, or not part "of" this planet?

Could it be possible that this planet is a "foster home" for humans? It might shed light onto the fact that we can't seem to live within the ecosystem, but rather attempt to force the ecosystem to accomodate us...

just some thoughts

I myself can't wait till earthlings travel to Mars and see what's really there. Maybe we'll find a lot of our own histories. I totally agree with you and Jeannot on this one.
