I do believe there may be some experiments in the near future to affirm or falsify various theories of collective consciousness in nature. In a sense, such collective conscious behavior is a case of ”reality being shaped by” the thoughts of its participants.

Indeed, Alamo-Girl -- Hungarian theoretic astrophysicist Attila Grandpierre has proposed some interesting experiments that seem eminently testable immediately, as a result of his efforts to elaborate the critical criteria of life and consciousness in terms of an astrophysical model that is itself predicated on a primary universal vacuum field that, at bottom, mediates all physical and "spiritual" (in the above-elaborated sense) phenomena. This would be a stunning development, integrating classical physics, quantum field theory, mathematics, and information science. I hope that when this article is published (details to follow), theorists and experimentalists alike -- not to mention the general public -- will give it the serious attention it deserves. JMHO FWIW.

Thank you so very much for your kind words of encouragement.

The article would be interesting. However, I do not believe we should implement such a program. Human cloning is another technology we should avoid. The reason is threefold. One, we are finite beings and should attempt only finite things. Two, we will each become spiritual beings soon enough in the natural course of events: there is no need to rush these things. Three, we already have a substantial noosphere in operation and being expanded daily.

Thank you so much for your reply!

Attila Grandpierre is one of my favorites! He has refreshingly unique way of looking at just about everything I've ever seen him approach. I anticipate there will be a very large audience for his article here in the U.S. Hopefully it will be on-line too!
