How might I become openly atheist to be threatened by police and the mob?
Then I'll avoid.

Can I just ask...This assembling of all the named molecules and chemistry that just happened to have made up the material world as we know it to be.... Was all that just an accidental, opportunistic, spontaneous event...or will we never know for absolute certainty why there is something rather than nothing question?

Ask me a difficult one.
As there are no absolutes we will never know.
Maybe when we capture one of those aliens who invade our airspace we could ask it.
Meanwhile, your guess is as good as mine.

The availability of The Asmo is slightly reduced these days. He has become project lead on a very cool, yet very time-consuming project, so for now, He basically lives at, for and by work until the first stage is completed - probably in a couple of weeks.

Congratulations and good luck! Don't forget to fortify your body with copious volumes of ethanol-rich beverages.

The material world comes from the Higgs Field.

Fair enough. There is a field theory. So is this field conscious of itself? I mean what's viewing the field? what part does consciousness play into the equation of the field theory of reality?

Or, everything is in the past and the future never comes.

Okay, thanks.

"The material world; is an imaged projection of imageless consciousness. The same but different stuff (our) apparent dreams are made of."

Nope. The material world comes from the Higgs Field.

"I'm happy being unhappy, and if that makes me sound like a misery guts, then I'm happy with that too. I have no particular preference to-be or not to-be; for I have no control to make what happens unhappen.
There is nothing making happening happen; nor is there anything to make what happens unhappen."
