Lofty. There is no such thing as elevated consciousness. It's just the same old status seeking elitism but transferred to a playing field some people feel is more to their ability than objective achievement. Evolution, spiritual or otherwise treats the species as a whole. In that respect you were born equal to all.

As a matter of fact your ideals sound very close to Christianity with the love for all humanity deal, unlike the other two big leaguers. That comparison doesn't ever appeal to erstwhile spiritual snobs.

Maybe, but in the end the only thing all humans have, all they have ever had, all they will ever truly have is hope and a work towards their hopes. I choose to hope an elevated consciousness is possible. I will not hide from change. I choose to embrace the change that Ted so feared. I will use the technology as a tool of my hope.
