You need to read the book "The physics of consiousness".

Every time I finish it, I pick it up and start over again..I've read it 6-1/2 times so far. The first half is heavy into the history of physics, put into an amusing, yet not dumbed down, lay-mans terms, the second half ties into spirituality (Buddism in particular) although 95% of it can be related to Christianity.......because he delves into the "spirituality" of religions, rather than the dogma.

Truley facinating book, I highly recommend it to any FReepers who are inquisitive about either Physics and / or Spirituality and how they are related. His breakdown of quantum mechanics is an excellent read in itself.

Sorry if I have offended any Buddists out there, I did not mean to imply that Buddism was NOT a religion in my above post. Sorry for the gaff.
