Your welcome. For me this brings up the concept of becoming gods. If we create something that is like us and by doing this we evolve then the way to godhood would be by fully understanding us. So evolution is the realization and replication of the self. Then we would be looking down on ourselves from another dimension or realm that we currently cannot see. I think the term that makes the most sense is enlightenment. When you fully understand the robot that is you one then becomes enlightened like the teachers of the old religions, you know the Jesus, Buddha, Krishna ect... Each individual has a unique religion of their own and if they take the time to figure themselves out rather than all the worldly distractions they then become god of themselves and are enlightened. I say this because i've written my own religion, taking up about seven five subject notebooks, it's a lot, and also putting half of what i've realized about reality into a novel of sorts to give to others who may want to glimpse further into the rabbit hole, but the world doesn't seem receptive yet. Used to have it on amazon but now i like to hand it out for free, which is part of the system i've found, the give and receive system, give tangible = receive intangible, and so my wisdom grows, thus why the bible was given for free. Something about the sacrament of money corrupts things, so selling it is kinda a no no, but in it i've unified all religions as well as science and broke down this illusion called life, but alas no science people will pay any attenion as it revolves around psychedelic discovery. And so i wait for the world to be tolerant enough to undersand the all, this is one of the reasons i've joined steemit, as a way to try to post stimulating thoughts from the journey i have and still am taking, i've even figured out consciousness to a pinpoint, but that is something i have not shared with others yet as this world thinks in terms of stealing rather than embracing, i would not want to further one religion above another as they are all true and also not true, like science for example, science would steal divine concepts and make them seem not divine, too controlling and not very open to truth if you ask me, but that's the fad this time around this life dance. I don't mean to drag on, figure out your own religion and the science of you, the human, and all truths become clear. Thank you for understanding my thoughts and appreciating them. (If you happen to be interested in my novel, which contains lots of mistakes as i had no editor, but i like it that way, keeps the not open people away, i'd be glad to send you a copy. Email me if so at thechurchofnothing@yahoo.com with your address and i'll try to send it to you, this offer is open to others as well though i will have to order more copies as i only have one to give right now. It was formed as a way to protect people who used psychedelics from persecution but became so much more. Read my other blog posts for more insight into where my mind is at.)
