Your focus is on the physical. I speak to the philosophy that will arise. The non physical. Scripture would call it the WORD.
Which brings up two basic philosophies and a fork in the road.
1) IF God exists, is the WORD based on GODs intelligence TO us?
2) Or did our imaginations and evolving abilities define and refine the WORD?
Whose image (imagination) defines the word? Is God imparting His image (imagination) into us as we allow it, or is our imagination conjuring up reality as we interpret it? (God included)
Basically my question boils down to the belief that God exists, existed before we did, and actively imparts wisdom to us and through us...or the alternative, which is that basically we imagined God and continue to refine and define this ideal.
