I guess? If, in fact God does exist, then it only makes sense that all things should reflect (in some way) that which created it. As to whether any of these other creatures were aware that God existed or not, I would venture to say no. That isn't to say they don't represent some form of "consciousness," however.
I have several of Joseph Campbells books, and I really enjoyed the TV series, The Power of Myth.
Yes, exactly, and this happens to be my argument. Of course the whole thing would be contingent upon that, which at the very least, is omniscient.
So, what is your source? If it exists, and is accurate, there is no more precious thing on the planet. Share some predictions with us, if you have any. If you don't, then it is not the source required for your claim.
That's a start, although I would never recommend reading only one person's perspective on this subject, no matter how much I liked that person's views. If you liked that stuff, presumably you would like other treatments of the same subject material.
What, just because the source of all knowing is "all-knowing?" No. I have had dreams and premonitions, however, which have come true. And that's good enough for me.
You are easily satisfied, then. A few dreams and premonitions, and you are convinced your source is "all-knowing"? How many of your dreams come true? Do you write them down in sufficient detail to know that they are true and not merely close enough for you to see "faces in clouds"? Or do you interpret your dreams in the same fashion that you interpret numerology, forcing things to fit your preconceived notions?What, just because the source of all knowing is "all-knowing?" No. I have had dreams and premonitions, however, which have come true. And that's good enough for me.

It is all part of the same continuum, and one interaction. Therefore there must be an "awareness factor" at all levels.
And you claim to be unable to see that this is nonsense?
And there's a difference between believing in something in "blindly," and actually standing witness to something. And if it was just a one shot deal, for example, if I saw a hit and run accident, and there was no way of tracking the driver down, it still doesn't change the fact that somebody was injured and their life was affected as result. Now, for you to ask me to reproduce the whole thing as I if were the one responsible for the accident (albeit I may have been the one who got hit by the car), what do you expect? I am not a magician, and I don't pull rabbits out of my hat just to satisfy somebody else's whim. I'm afraid it doesn't work that way.

We are in fact living in a matrix of sorts.
Everything "vibrates" and emits its own signal does it not? So, at what level does everything stop vibrating?
I am not wrong ... at least to the extent that there is a phenomenon called the spiritual world. While hey, there may in fact be a way of reproducing some of these things, but I can assure you, it's not going to happen (any time soon) by you having me submit to a full proctol examination in front of everyone.
