First you should inquire who you are, and you will find by knowing yourself, and the simultaneous act by 'an other' in knowing themselves, that if you meet your gazes properly you will find you both came to recognise the same self in your inquiry. It's not really a mystical thing, although there is nothing really ordinary about being the supreme being - since who else could this one self be?
How about an emergent property of brain function? 
You do go on and on about shit you have no evidence for and you proclaim it like it's natural law. But imo you are fos.
I think less and less we should be looking for evidence and instead look to our own experience as a guide for understanding. I don't make theories and test them, I go for novel experience and I observe my environment closely and in doing this I've noticed a few things-
What is inside my mind or what is just "my mind" and what is purportedly outside it or what is reality, are the same thing, the same entity. Reality is made of your mind. So you and he and they are obviously all inside my mind. So what I'm doing inside is instantaneously reflected outside, making for a kind of multidimensionality to reality/life. The world is not what it appears to be. It is not simply physical and that's it, we just count down the calendar to total understanding with physics/science. It's not just life, go live, it's not just here. It's a living presence, it's aware of you and what you are thinking, the thing is you. It's some kind of construct that has arisen in consciousness hopefully for some reason or totally without reason perhaps. We know far, far less than we think. Take the present primary assumption of our thinking - that nature is 'mute' or that it is a fixed, out there, entity. That assumption is wrong, it is not independent of your mind, so really it could be anything, at different times, in different states of mind.
So I don't look for evidence I just go for experience, I try to get my state of mind in a certain way by will alone.

the present is you, because you are an individual freedom conscious being, so the conscious of being is the reference to being present for true existence fact
so you play with that knowledge to avoid or ignore what you don't want
this could be right since through your freedom fact while it is a relative thing so the consequences are all to yourself being or freedom positive rights of you alone

teknix said: Craziness huh?
Would it suck if god is crazy?
But does it matter?
What if God likes to laugh and everything is a joke to him, even life. =-/
No one really wants to be god, and they cant anyways.
Anyways how to put it nicely, don't fuck with god. ^.^
What sucks is that some people need a fictional story to be grateful for the good (and the bad) on earth here. 
IF there is a god it'd be hard not to be entertained with all the shit we go through and he's absolutely insane to enable us to make such a mess here. 
buuutttt that's our own fault. So easy to attribute everything to non-existing figures. Oh well, as long as you find solace in your belief keep it ;o.
