Living Systems in Evolution





"The barriers between science and spirit are dissolving as scientists find cosmic consciousness in a non-local, non-time energy field that transmutes itself into electromagnetic energy, and, in turn, matter, in the creation of universes such as ours, as we have seen."

I'm generally quite wary of efforts to unify religion and science, but this piece is genuinely compelling. I like the author's depiction of bacterial cityscapes and the notion that if consciousness is anywhere, then it must be everywhere.

Song of the day: "Final Straw" (R.E.M.)
