These questions are directly related to how the mortal being is designed and constructed and wired…and by whom.
Actually, the questions I propose are concerned with the lead up to the phenomenon of being born of the spirit, the Holy Spirit. Nigel changed the name of the the Holy Spirit to the Spirit of Fact, and I had a cow. The current discussion is meant to focus on the details of how the universe manages to get us from mechanistically reactive protoplasm to a conscious relationship with Deity, as Nigel describes in his paper. Nigel and I are scientists, so please forgive.
