Self-awareness,
thoughts arising from within the self, objective-external sensory inputs, the
self’s filtering and perception of those external inputs, dictated-genetically
programmed thoughts and behaviors, randomly firing neurons and synapses,
reactions and automatic responses, and somewhere in that cacophony, the
whispering of the Holy Spirit?!
Good grief, can
consciousness really be so complicated?!
And I’ve not even yet invoked the mysterious subconscious!
Maybe we should
introduce a few possessing spirits while we’re at it!….and let’s not leave out
addictions, lusts, and hungers, with their concomitant ability to deftly weave
our rationalizations of our irrational behaviors.
