How much proof would it take?

Boltzmann brain - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Actually is you're going to allow for the concept of the spontaneous creation of microscopic life on Earth based on naturally occurring events (ambiogensis), you'll also have to intellectually accept that macroscopic intelligent forms of life are also possible (Boltzmann brain).

Really?

First of all, the evidence points to brains that evolved, not Boltzmann brains.

Secondly, who says life arose spontaneously? I find most plausible the view that life came from self replicating chemicals, and that the very first of these were not what we would call life.

Thirdly, your last point does not follow. Why must I conclude that Boltzmann brains must exist simply because macroscopic life forms with intelligence are able to evolve? The Wiki page seems to say that the two can exist independently of each other, that is, one does not require the other?

That term doesn't describe the state of awareness it possesses, nor therefore can it hope to address human experiences of God on Earth. We need new term IMO.

You have no evidence that the universe AS A WHOLE has a single intelligence (all you can do is prove that small individual parts of it - such as individual humans - do, and I'm not going to dispute that).

Not unless you're willing to concede that as Orch-OR theory predicts, awareness/consciousness is an intrinsic state and property of the universe itself.

No idea what you are talking about.

I mean the living universe, yes.

And what exactly does it mean for the universe to be "living"?

Then again, I don't know if God is technically limited to the visible sliver of the universe that I can observe, and in fact I have great reasons to believe he is not. The universe/God may be infinite and eternal for all I know.

This would seem to mean that your entire point of view is speculation.
