Human conciousness is not evolving in a positive direction right now. The more aware among humankind are not having children. So over time as a race we will continue to get less concious, not more so.

On the bright side, artificial intelligence is getting more advanced. The first god that mankind will be responsible for will likely be silicon based.

Maybe this god will take care of us, who by that time will be celebrity and sex obsessed beings more concerned about money, power, fashion, wild fun, and style than anything else.

Oh wait a minute- maybe we are there now... are you ready yet silicon god?

There are thoughts that this is what is occurring. We see the results of evolution, but not the mechanisms... once we realise that DNA is not inviolate and actually changes in the individual (as some geneticists are seeing) then we will understand the process a little better.

It comes down to the question.
The ultimate question.
The question of life the universe and everything.
What is the universe FOR? Not just life, or planet earth - that is way too homocentric (human-focused). We are a part of this odd thing we call 'the universe'. Why? What the hell (sic) is it?

Religious types always want to subscribe to something safe or something that they can control (what you can control god??? - sure - what do you think all of the rituals are for!)

Mystics try to see a little further or deeper. Why are we a part of this thing? What is it? Why is it? How can we see it? How can we understand it? Why are we able to ask these questions?

Ancient myths tell of the universe becoming because the one (singularity) needed to know itself, and it could not as it was one. So it divided, became two. But this was still not enough and so the action continued - splitting, dividing, coming to understand. Becoming both less and more than it was. Consciousness was an important step on the path. But consciousness is not the same as becoming conscious anymore than communication is the same as communicating.

Some would argue that there have been some important mystical thinkers and teachers over the VERY short history of our species. And they have all been misinterpreted - whether thorough our lack of understanding or our wilful need for easy answers.
As an example, watch the movie 'Tommy'.

When the teacher known as Jesus reportedly said 'If you wish to 'know' god, follow me' - did he REALLY mean 'venerate me - put me up on a big pedestal, bow and scrape to me and carry on living your little ignorant lives full of hatred, bigotry, oppression of the weak and fear of anything different'??
Hardly likely, is it, given all of the other lessons of his life.

Isn't much more likely that when he said 'follow me' he meant "do as I do, live as I live, see openly, love without question... become as me'.

The misinterpretation began with his immediate followers - some of whom thought they had signed on with a revolutionary who would overthrow the oppression of both Romans and the corrupt controllers of the synagogues. But he wasn't that man.

It followed on more so as the Romans themselves were brought on board to create a bigger movement that could quash all dissent - and has been on-going ever since.

And that is just one example. There are many more in every major religion.

So many religious thinkers get lost in the notion of 'sin' as if that is something that keeps us from becoming god. The more fundamentalist christians believe that everyone is born full of sin, so therefore will never be a god. But there is no such thing as sin. Just choices that individuals make. Some recent studies, for instance, show that a lack of creative, active, interactive play as small children is a part of the childhood of a huge percentage of people in the prison population. How does that equate to the selling of PSP's to young children of today? Does that make the people who design these things sinners? Or does it make the parents who buy them for their kids responsible for what ever crimes the child goes on to commit? Can you see how loaded the bases - and the questions- are?

So you then need to refine your concept of god. What is it? How would you define 'god'? We are surely not the only species to have evolved into consciousness... even on this planet that one is not totally assured, so how about on the many billions of others that exist elsewhere? You cannot mean 'god' as in the limited christian view of god? Something that created the universe and then sits on a little cloud looking at only one planet - and only one tribe of only one species on that planet? Promising them something 'really special' if they stay on bended knee to that god throughout their lives... and something 'really horrible' to all the rest after they die...

So I would guess that you mean something that some other species, further down the evolutionary scale, might take to be a god.... having watched some episodes of Star Trek and Stargate SG1 kinda thing.

That is possible. But - look around you. We are still ruled by fear, hatred and stupidity - and our political and religious "masters" still live high on that very knowledge. In order to become gods, we need revolution as well as evolution.

But if you are on the path - good for you. The more the merrier.
It is the time of the 100 monkeys..... we are close. If you don't know the story of the 100 monkeys... look it up and then relate it to your question. It's about washing your nuts.

I like Anne Rice's spin on events.

God exists, He knows everything except where he came from.

So he started a massive experiment by creating the universe.

After a couple of Billion years life started springing up everywhere.

And everywhere life started resembling God (two eyes a nose a mouth etc).

Then we started to evolve intelligence, and no doubt have the potential to one day evolve beyond the constraints of our 4 dimensions.

In the Bible we are thought that we were created in God's image. Jesus told his apostles that if we have faith and truly believe that we could tell a mountain to move from there to here and it would be so.

I believe that we are here on earth in this dimension of earth, to perfect our souls and experience love, hate, hardships, windfalls, all our experiences God is willing to let us experience through freedom or choice. People choose to believe whatever strikes them as true. Whether humans have the capability to ever evolve to being a type of god I do not believe this can happen on earth. I believe this is only possible after death, on the other side, as some people call it, or heaven.

The people living on earth rejected Jesus, who is God or the Word of God millennium ago. Being conscious of your spirituality and exploring it and research will bring you that closer to God. Never stop searching for the true meaning of life or souls or spiritual enlightenment. God bless you

It depends on your view.
if you are of a philosophy where you are able to raise your consciousness, then you can achieve a pure level, which is close. But no, you never become God.

if you are speaking religiously, no. you can reach a level of consciousness where you closely follow God, but never ever can you evolve into God. It is impossible for a human being, to walk this earth and be without sin. Get it?

It is interesting to speculate how human consciousness might evolve but it will still be subject to the laws of nature, hence no god, especially as god is just an invention of human consciousness.

Scripture says that we are gods. In Revelation we are told if we overcome we will be given the morning star. Christ called himself the morning star, and Job, I believe, talks about when the morning stars sang together. The first and highest form of life created, I beleieve.
I presume our spirit does have the ability to evolve to the highest form of life, and all spirit life is a part of that which we call God.

Many people and early societies belive that god is a spirit in all things. If that is true, god evolved into man as well/

Good luck B

That depends on if you believe in God. If so, he / it is already the totality of all universal consciousness and we are already part of Him.

Personally, I think it would be nice first if human consciousness evolved into something more .... humane.

If all monkeys developed into human beings, then there will be no monkeys interior the international and our destiny generations will pass over the prospect of understanding how their ancestors look like. Inorder to instruct ancestors to our next generations god did no longer turn some monkeys into human beings.
