I would have to say that the response you gave is sort of unlike you, Neutralino. Thinking, believing and facts don't usually mesh very well, but I know what you mean.

The point is, like any other observation, it cannot be proven that the universe or time exists if there are no observers to observe it - it especially opposes empirical science, being based on observed experiential and experimental phenomena.

If it is subconsciousness that sets the parameters for the evolutionary process, then consciousness observation could simply be due to a channeling in on such probablistic parameters. Subconsciousness would be due to the shared universal interactions based on universal symmetry being broken which allows for random fluctuations.
