I. Introduction:
As we enter the 8th month of the 18th year of this 21st century I would like to speak today on the topic of human responsibility and our resemblance to God as individuals, families and nations. This will be a two-part presentation. According to SG-TOE[1], the number eight symbolizes human responsibility to God. Thus, as we enter the eighth month of this eighteenth year my heart is drawn to share some ideas on human responsibility to my fellow Africans. Eighteen[2] is ten plus as eight, meaning a time for all of us to return back to God and fulfill our unfulfilled destiny as a chosen nation of God in Africa. Notice the painting of Adam and God above (see fig 1) has God and the Angels shrouded in a velvet/red covering shaped like the human brain. Clearly Michelangelo was inspired by the Angel Michael to tell us we are connected to the consciousness of God as His children on Earth.
Science can provide us with very little understanding in this area of human responsibility, because the very scientific method relies on observations, experimentation and logical conclusions, structured as scientific laws and mathematical principles. Since most human beings lack the faculty to observe spiritual phenomena science is useless, thus religion is our only hope for meaning regarding human responsibility and our resemblance to God.
II. Religion & Science:
With the recent discovery of Quantum Physics[3], the historic concepts of Metaphysics[4] have taken on new life in search of a scientific "Theory of Everything"[5]. This happened because quantum physics as a science recently came to realize the observable universe is made of un-observable substances called ENERGY (root of matter) and CONSCIOUSNESS (root of mind). Even what they call matter has now been found to be basically empty space with the solidity being linked to the uncertain function of our minds or consciousness influencing matter. It appears that Cosmic Consciousness (which we are a part of) creates solid matter from pure energy via a very complex pre-existing Space-Time field.
The final challenge of science in this century is to understand scientifically: 1. where these dual substances (energy and consciousness) came from, 2. how and why they are interconnected, and 3. the singular methodology by which they create something (matter) from nothing (pure energy as the substantial aspect of consciousness).
For those of us with even a tiny faith (religion) the answers are simple, as follows:
1. Consciousness is the very “GODHEAD” of the creator while Energy represents His “Eternal Power” as in Roman 1:20; thus consciousness is the causal aspect of forces which emerge from energy.
2. These two aspects of GOD represent His Mind and Body Unity (as in E~ MC2); thus, they possess the same attributes as GOD…Unchanging, Selfish-existing, Eternal and Absolute[6]; for both to be like this implies a connectivity.
3. The process of creation is by creative manifestation. Everything was created by the power of God’s Mind generating a LOGOS (through-form) and then using His divine will via UPE (universal prime energy) to mold whatever His heart desires into a matter/energy construct we call reality. Thus reality is whatever GOD wants it to be as in "Let there be Light". Notice in Michelangelo’s painting Adam is God’s physical object partner. God is the invisible,intangible, but substantial cosmic mind while Adam was the first unique singular physical body of God with a PU aspect of consciousness shared with GOD.
Today science debates whether consciousness is created by the brain or pre-exist outside of the brain with the brain serving only as a radio receiver. According to SG-TOE the later is true, the brain and the body (physical energy) respond to the consciousness (spiritual energy). Of course, after the Fall of Adam this knowledge was lost. The whole history of human existence has been a process of regaining this lost wisdom via the progressive development of religious history (see fig 2). Only recently ( about 400-200 years) is science trying to catch up to religion, by understanding logically and mathematically the process of creative manifestation. So far they realize that everything suddenly explored into existence as the emergence of a complex holographic ST-field of energy. They know nothing about the origin, source and nature of that energy.

III. Scientific Godism Views Man as a Child of God:
We must understand that unlike Darwin who believed we evolved from Apes, Scientific Godism (SG-TOE) sees Apes as part of the generation of animals or beast of the earth/field[7], quite separate from Human Beings, who represented a new unique creation of God. Thus, both animals and man were depicted as being created from the ground (physical matter) “after their kind”[8]. To differentiate this human being of Darwin and the scientific concept of human beings as man, SG-TOE refers to Adam & Eve as the original progenitors of a new species beyond Homo eructus. They were the original parents of our unique generation of species not LUCY[9]?
From the study of encephalization[10] which compares the brain mass with the body mass, science noticed a relationship between the generation of species and their intellectual capacity. However erroneously they assumed this relationship included our human generation. They forgot to consider the SOUL as in Gen 2:7-8[11].

What separated our species from the previous Hominine is the SOUL. The SOUL when properly understood will account for our unique state of shared consciousness with God[12]. We were the first and only species or creatures made in the direct image of GOD the creator. Thus, our consciousness is directly linked to the LORD God, explaining why Adam and Eve communicated with God personally before the Fall.
We are each a unique cell in the body of GOD. Thus, LORD Jesus said in John 10:30: “I and my Father are One”, showing clearly, he was conscious of GOD as his father. Of course, some would say: “what about the Angels, were they not made in the direct image of God and were they not conscious of God as their creator?”. My response would be NO and YES! Though God spoke to the Angels in Gen 1:26 using the phase: “Let us make man in our image and likeness”; Angels are part of the “beast of the field”[13] and thus an object partner at the level of “servant of God”. They were not made in the “direct image of God” as a child. They were made in the "symbolic image of God" as with all of creation, except Adam and Eve.
So, in conclusion, Scientific Godism identifies Adam as the first human being to be conscious of God as his parental creator [14]. It was Adam who named all creation and transferred that heritage from generation to generation as culture. Just finding a group of bones without a cultural heritage cannot account for Adam’s lineage. Our current global confusion about the existence of God can only be due to an historic tragedy hidden deep in the subconscious[15] of every human being as descendants of the True Adam and Eve. Carl Jung, one of the fathers of modern psychology, introduced the idea of a collective consciousness as the realm linked to our collective cultural heritage as descendants of Adam and Eve. He talked about archetypes and the collective unconscious[16] of all humankind being connected as One, thus accounting for similar mythical stories regarding our origin, religions and culture.
End of part one. Love you all forever…
ENDNOTES:
[1] SG means Scientific Godism. It refers to a new theory of Everything which I am proposing is the way forward for Liberia, Africa and the world.
[2] According to numerology 10 means “back to God”, assuming GOD symbolizes the number ONE (1). All the prime numbers between 1 and 10 (2,3,5,7) have special meaning. The fact that only four such prime numbers exist tells us that the U-SEA is manifested via a 4-position foundation structure (4-PFS), thus the standard model currently talks about 4 forces.

[4] Metaphysics is a branch of philosophy that explores the nature of being, existence, and reality. Metaphysics seeks to answer, in a "suitably abstract and fully general manner", the questions: What is there? And what is it like? Wikipedia.
[5] A theory of everything (TOE[1] or ToE), final theory, ultimate theory, or master theory is a hypothetical single, all-encompassing, coherent theoretical framework of physics that fully explains and links together all physical aspects of the universe. Finding a TOE is one of the major unsolved problems in physics.Wikipedia...
[6] SG refers to these attributes as U-SEA or universal sea of energy. It has always existed as the mind/body aspect of God the Father, Mother and Son.
[7] With reference to “Beast of the earth” and “beast of the field” see Gen 1:25 to 26 and Gen2:19
[8] In Gen 2:7 man was made “… from the dust of the ground”; while in Gen 2:19 animals were made “…from the ground”. The ground vs dust of the ground depicts a more refined sub-texture. If we call "ground" matter, then "dust of ground" could refer to the source substance of matter or a purer form of matter? The believe the current debate regarding the existence of "dark matter"(ground) vs "dark energy"(dust of the ground) falls in this category.
Either way both animals and man have a physical body. The concept of “after their kind” depicts a parental seed/embryonic origin. Clearly the bible wishes to show that the origin of the beast from the earth, cattle, creeping thing, beast of the waters, etc… are all different. Adam was the parental origin of our human lineage and was made in the direct image of God; while all other creatures (beast of the field) were made by God, but as God's indirect image. So, the parental origin of each creature was different, represented by the subtle difference in our genetic make-up. Science must awaken to this reality.
[9] Lucy is the common name of AL 288-1, several hundred pieces of bone fossils representing 40 percent of the skeleton of a female of the hominin species Australopithecus afarensis. In Ethiopia, the assembly is also known as Dinkinesh, which means "you are marvelous" in the Amharic language. Lucy was discovered in 1974 in Africa, near the village Hadar in the Awash Valley of the Afar Triangle in Ethiopia, by paleoanthropologist Donald Johanson of the Cleveland Museum of Natural History.[ Wikipedia
[10] Encephalization is defined as the amount of brain mass related to an animal's total body mass. Quantifying an animal's encephalization has been argued to be directly proportional, although not equal, to that animal's level of intelligence. Wikipedia.
[11] Gen 2:7-8: And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living soul. And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden and there he put the man whom he had formed”.
[12] Only human beings are connected directly to the Consciousness of God. As the children of God, we share the consciousness of our parents. Other creations are tuned into different levels of consciousness thus accounting for their state of awareness separated from ours. With training I believe we could tune into all lower levels of consciousness. Angels are spiritual beings linked to the core consciousness of the “beast of the field”, meaning all animals as the highest form of consciousness next to ours. But Angels were not given a physical body as we were, so while they can communicate with us through the consciousness field interconnected by GOD, they cannot manifest in the flesh.
[13] Gen 3:1 “Now the serpent was more subtle than any of the “beast of the field” which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the Garden?”
[14] The teachings of Kabbalah agree with this definition of Adam as the first human to be conscious of God as the creator. So only bones that depict a culture with knowledge of God can link us to the original Adam's family.
[15] Pierre Janet (1859-1947) coined the idea of a deeper consciousness (sub-consciousness) not easily accessible to our everyday conscious mind. Modern science believes we use only 5% of our total consciousness, quite like the recent discovery of 5% matter versus 95% dark matter and dark energy. Other aspects of consciousness are referred to as sub-consciousness and super-consciousness. The sub and super-consciousness can be linked to Carl Jung’s idea of collective consciousness.
