I agree with Fil, it is.

And of course we have all kinds of evidence that galactic clusters and filaments are the synapses and brain of the universe/God/consciousness/whateverthefuck you want to call it.

You guys are a hoot!

Why does the Universe exist? There are two questions here.
First, why is there a Universe at all? It might have been true
that nothing ever existed: no living beings, no stars, no atoms,
not even space or time. When we think about this possibility,
it can seem astonishing that anything exists. Second, why does
this Universe exist? Things might have been, in countless
ways, different. So why is the Universe as it is?

When did the collapse of the wave function killed God and can he resurrect?

Unfortunately for us humans, our reality is based on subjective perceptions.

You use the phrase, "subjective perception," as though it implied something wrong with perception.

Your subjective interpretation of my meaning is wrong. Show me where I implied such a thing?

Human perception is totally reliable and the universe we perceive is exactly as we perceive it.

Here's a good example of subjective perception. All my siblings are Christians, and I'm an atheist.

Perception is not only the passive receipt of these signals, but it's also shaped by the recipient's learning, memory, expectation, and attention.[3][4]

What color is the dress?

"The dress" is a photograph that became a viral Internet meme on 26 February 2015, when viewers disagreed over whether the colours of the item of clothing depicted were black and blue or white and gold. The phenomenon revealed differences in human colour perception which have been the subject of ongoing scientific investigation in neuroscience and vision science, with a number of papers published in peer-reviewed science journals.

The photo originated from a washed-out colour photograph of a dress posted on the social networking service Tumblr. In the first week after the surfacing of the image alone, more than 10 million tweets mentioned the dress, using hashtags such as #thedress, #whiteandgold and #blackandblue. Although the actual colour of the dress was eventually confirmed to be black and blue, the image prompted discussions surrounding the matter across various platforms, with users discussing their opinions on the colour and why they perceived the dress as being a certain colour. At the same time, members of the scientific community began to investigate the photo for fresh insights into human colour vision.

The dress itself, which was identified as a product of the retailer Roman Originals, experienced a major surge in sales as a result of the incident. The retailer also produced a one-off version of the dress in white and gold as a charity campaign.
