Evolution of Reality (part1)

Evolution, of course, continues, it does not reverse. This is true of human evolution as well, although it is not limited to a Darwinian, survival of the fittest evolution. Because humans have free will we can make the decisions that, before consciousness, were decided by nature. We make these decisions with information. We learn from our predecessors, choose the valuable information and reject the obsolete information. So information itself is governed by a law of survival of the fittest. This information is transmitted from one generation to the next through our parents but also through culture. Mythology is this transmission of information and our current dominant mythology is science. But science does not fulfill the necessary quota for a unified mythology so we resort to art and religion. It is not surprising that creationists adamantly support the biblical creation myth because it provides the explanations which are missing in science. Science does not purport to solve all problems about the nature of the universe but creationism does. What I feel creationists teach us is that myth itself is the vehicle for human evolution which works hand in hand with Darwinian survival of the fittest. Although creationists would oppose Darwinian evolution, an understanding of the bible as symbolic, but no less true than science should solve the problem. The human brain works on symbols and therefore symbols are as real as any science because science of course operates in the same manner. With theoretical physics touching on realms which were classically left to religion, we can see the full expression of the symbolic nature of reality. When one picks up a cup, I use the symbols "CUP" to represent the object and the object itself is how our consciousness interprets the subatomic particles which make up the object. When we look at the subatomic particles and find probabilistic tendencies for a particle to occur, paired with mostly empty space, we do not see anything that resembles a cup as we know it. Therefore the cup is just a symbol the mind has adaptively constructed, such that we can use the cup to perform a task. What is the nature of this adaptation of our mind to construct a cup as we see it? This adaptation has evolved within our consciousness and is constantly evolving. So we could say that our consciousness is evolving and therefore our reality is evolving, since reality is only the symbols (like the cup) constructed by consciousness. This construct, or reality, is intertwined with consciousness and therefore all are evolving together. Although it might be difficult to grasp, we must not think of consciousness as being separate from reality. It is only through consciousness that reality is known.
The mechanisms for all evolution are positive and negative reinforcement...
