Do we not live in a shared universe?Nice personal opinion, but you've presented no proof. Again.That's because we live in a shared universe with shared consequences and everything is connected and there is a cause and effect relationship. Everything has evolved since Creation. Consciousness is not immune from this process and is in fact the endgame of this process.It appears to be daunting, even intolerable, for most people to take seriously that one is totally unique and a set of one's own original, unduplicable, unshareable experiences and perceptions. In other words, that one is alone and responsible in the deepest existential sense for one's choices, moral, religious and other. Above all, few are ready to see that everything is relative. It is also a very dangerous thing to tell people, as it is so easily mishandled as information.
