And this is why I'm confused and could use some guidance or direction as to what you are looking for in this thread. |
Why is it that evolution saw fit to give us those attributes you are refering to?
It is obviously preparing us to do a job here; so what are we really doing with those attributes that we were so fortunate to develop?
My framework suggests that the universe is nothing more than a spectrum of frequencies of fundamental matter in motion, much like the current model of the electromagnetic spectrum, and with this I get a glimpse of what, in my opinion, our senses are actually doing. Each sensor (eyes, nose, ears, and touch) are actually tuned to a limitied amount of fundamental frequencies. This is already known about our eyes and ears, but the rest of our senses also acknowledge different ranges of motion frequencies of fundamental matter, being as massive formations (objects) are also frequency based. Our intelligence somehow processes this incoming info and directs us into action by way of the provided legs and arms, whereby we effect the frequencies we've been observing.
What are these actions really accomplishing, as it pertains to the whole?
Are the effects of our actions limited to this planet, or do they have a much more profound effect on the entire framework?
Just saying that evolution prepared us doesn't tell us much about what it prepared us for. What we are really doing with our eyes, ears, arms, brain, thoughts, etc. etc.. Even our intelligence seems to be governed by our function whereby we don't get much more than we need to do our job, in my opinion.
How does evolution know what to give us?
I'll admit, acknowledging our true role in all this isn't that much easier than acknowledging a ToE; it will require us to see how our everyday lives change the world before us, but if we don't understand this, then how can we suggest things such as: we are harming our planet. We don't know that unless we know our true role here. It could be our role here to do apparent harm, but I refuse to believe that a framework can produce a form which can do anything other than what it is supposed to do. In my opinion, we can't harm our world any more than we can sin against it, our souls, god, etc.

I'm looking for total enlightenment Pat, the only kind that matters. In my opinion, it's all the same. This is how a ToE would relate all of those concepts you've mentioned. Our entire framework is physical, all of the others are just natures mechanism for blinding us from what we are truly here to do, whereby societies are built and Earth gets an overhaul.
does this help, or did I make it worse,
