Here are 9 philosophical questions for you to contemplate on. I will answer them to the best of my knowledge. Perhaps you can share your thoughts on them.

****************************************************************************************************

What is the nature of the universe?

Consciousness, but based on the production of material limitations.

****************************************************************************************************

Where does it come from?

The universe still neither has start finishes, because it is infinite.

****************************************************************************************************

Of what is it made?

Consciousness.

****************************************************************************************************

How did it come to exist?

Consciousness.

****************************************************************************************************

What is its purpose?

Consciousness.

****************************************************************************************************

By what process does it change?

Transformation.

****************************************************************************************************

Is it evolving or devolving?

Wrong base.

****************************************************************************************************

Does it function by itself or would it degenerate to chaos without some kind of intelligent control?

****************************************************************************************************

No, separation doesn't exist. Everything is generated by your imagination as a part from the whole. Nervous-systems cannot perceive everything simultaneously, so they divide everything in your imagination severed into small fragments (minutes & hours & seconds).

****************************************************************************************************

Is there a Supreme Being?

No. God doesn't solve your tasks.

God/Goddess/Energy/Life Force is a thought.

So similarly as with a hallucination. The human being refuses to overdo it responsibility.

Therefore, he invents God/Goddess/Energy/Life Force.

This takes over the life and fate with responsibility in the heads of the people.

The demons have their origin in the human consciousness and not in the unearthly.

Many will understand each other emotionally incorrectly, will create a psychological battlefield and will believe that war is necessary in order to be able to live in peace.

You do this instinctively.

And this involves only the human race, although I have seen red ants invade a black ant colony once taking their eggs back to their colony.

The tendency to change the own melancholy with the human need into a psychological synthesis in consideration of the search of deeper sense was laid each human being as premise and gift into the cradle, as possible motivation in consideration of an incentive to succumb to the mourning helplessly and helplessly in the everyday life of the life opposite not.

Do you have infinite knowledge to say that these are mere thoughts? Just wondering.........

First of all, let us try to agree on the problematic notion of conscious knowledge, of the mind.

We have only a gross and partial intellectual understanding of conscious knowledge.

Our desire to perfect that understanding through analytical research will lead us to the discovery of the luminous, clear, and knowing nature of consciousness.

It is extremely important to know how to identify clearly the object we are analysing, in this case the nature of consciousness.

Once we identify the nature of consciousness with its immaterial and non-obstructive characteristics, we will be able to use it to confront external objects and a third category of phenomena, abstract concepts such as the notions of time and change which have neither the nature of consciousness nor that of material objects.

Keeping these three classifications well in mind -- physical objects, the mind, and abstract mental constructs -- we will be able to identify conscious knowledge by comparing it to the two other categories of phenomena.

Once we have clear knowledge of its nature, it will not only be possible to have a conscious experience of the process of change occurring within consciousness, but also to understand how consciousness and the experience of consciousness depend on a preceding moment of consciousness.

Only the preceding instant of consciousness may lead to a subsequent moment of consciousness nothing else has that faculty.

So to answer your question (I believe) personally I have knowledge in what clinges to be true (for me personally) and perhaps for others that I have knowledge to answer these philosophical questions I offer everyone to answer, which in return leads to some to agree to the answers I give and for others just mere thoughts as you have indicated.

Also I must mention that I haven't met a human who has infinite knowledge yet, perhaps you have?

I am, therefore I exist. My world exists. So does yours. Belief is in the eye of the beholder. You need only look to find what you seek.

physicis (sp?) would demonstrate an ebb and flow of order to chaos to order to chaos, etc.

I think we're all embedded with a sense of right and wrong. By that i mean there are decisions in life where we ask ourselves the above mentioned question, what we choose is irrelevant the truth is having weighed both sides of the coin we make a decision.
So i would say the nature of the universe is accepting accountability in any given direction of motion.

I kind of like where this was going. With the whole when humans deny their responsibilty, they make up some life force or an idea of a personal God. I mean the idea of God really does arise when it is evident that the world view that the human mind is given, in childhood, doesn't match up with what we thjink a good description of the world view should be. So it makes sense to add a condition of superior creative ability and all, so qyuick fix for the abscence of a good explanation. So if the human really is way more responsible than is generally regarded, then perhaps there is an explanationary power in each individual that is just untapped.

If one thinks about what we as a species know, it is mostly handed down from out parents and whatnot, and there most often is just about the same as you'd find from another. It gets worse later on in life, it seems. Then one is really capable of being aware that everyone doesn't know anything, not to say that little kids atren't able to think such thoughts. It is kind of like how Leibniz viewed the run of the mill views of a given time. Talk to a guy and he'll give you the common spin, ask him further to explain his views and you'll get nothing original out of him. Most people just take it for granted that what is said really has been thought out by someone who knows it better than them, or is more apt. But if everyone is responsible, this is not as pardonable, and they have to succumb to higher powers, I guess. I think it is a terrible part of the world that not everyone will reach their potential in life. I didn't really awnser any of these questions, but the idea of responsibilty had room for an offshoot.
