Intelligent Design

Time feels eternal
Odd in a universe a mere 13.7 billion years old
Odder still to be able to time stamp all that there is
all that will ever be

Complexity evolves in ever repeating cycles
Vapor to clouds to thunderstorms
Cells to embryos to complex life to death
Instinct, brutishness, intelligence, computers to super intelligence to...what?
 
Intelligence probably has no bounds
An intelligence billions of times ours - possible
An intelligence so great as to be indistinguishable from 'god'
So great as to be able to create universes?
Instinct, brutishness, intelligence, super intelligence to a new universe and repeat?

If true, intelligence would be woven into the fabric of eternity
Found in all that we know all that we see all that we experience
Found in the echos of previous universes
and of universes yet to come
In all eternity intelligence would now permeate everything
In ever repeating cycles

Was our universe created by a super-human intelligence that preceded it
That intelligence evolving into a universe created by an intelligence preceding it
And that created in yet another and on and on for all of eternity?

god is not supernatural
god is not magic
Is 'god' just intelligence?

  1. By intelligent design I mean so say intelligence that determines universal constants and sets in motion say the big bang. All that follows is a consequence of time and chance within the confines of physical laws as determined by those constants.
