I like your thinking. Unfortunately Moslem and Christian fundamentalist, partiarchal religions of all kinds have caused untold misery to our world.

I am a science fiction writer who addresses this issue in my new book series, still under development and under professional edit. In these books I try and present questions about who and what we are, framed in the language of quantum mechanics.

There is a group of scientists and philosophers out there who are on the forefront of putting together exciting theories on the underlying complexity of consciousness, and the universe in which we live. I can assure you their work completely destroys all the concepts currently adopted by fundamentalist religions.

Yes you're right we humans generally are on an incredibly self-destructive path. Climate change is the biggest existential threat the human race has ever faced. It will give rise to untold misery and the deaths of many of us. Let us hope the phoenix of enlightenment will have a chance to rise out of the ashes of our species. That's where my focus currently is thinking about how that might happen.
