Atheists: Is the universe aware?

Here is the logic:

1. You are a part of the universe.

2. You are aware.

3. Therefore, the universe is aware.

The logic is sound so let's continue:

1. You are a part of the universe.

2. You are intelligent.

3. Therefore, the universe is intelligent.

1. You are part of the universe.

2. You are creative.

3. Therefore, the universe is creative.

With this logic, the universe is aware, intelligent, and creative. If you are part of the universe, you would have to admit that at least part of the universe has those attributes and if part of the universe has those attributes, then the whole has those attributes. Proof of God?

    1. Your colon is full of ****.

    2. Your colon is part of you.

    3. Therefore you are full of ****.

    You're right faulty logic is fun!

    A3. Therefore parts of the universe are aware.

    B3. Therefore parts of the universe are intelligent.

    C3. Therefore parts of the universe are creative.

    The universe is made up of lots of parts. A tiny minority of those parts live. A tiny minority of those living parts cooperate to take part in awareness, intelligence and creativity. But awareness, intelligence and creativity are still more rare than perfect diamonds, in this universe.

    A tree is part of the universe too,trees are neither self aware nor intelligent,therefore the Universe is neither self aware nor intelligent.

    A rock is part of the Universe.....well you get the drift. There are vastly more things in the Universe that aren't aware nor intelligent than things that are.

    The parts of the universe that are us are aware, the chair I'm sitting on isn't, which shows you that the idea that the entire universe is aware is wrong since I just found an exception.

    These are known as false syllologisms. If you're going to present these you might as well go whole hog:

    1 - Socrates was mortal.

    2 - I am a Parisian.

    3 - Therefore, all birds sing.

    See how that goes?

    The Universe isn't aware because it isn't alive. It is just a container in which trillions of Galaxies are held.

    2. Fido is a dog.

    A spark plug is part of a car. Can a spark plug on its own take you from LA to New York?

    Being a part of something bigger and being that bigger thing are two completely different ideas.

    Starman, based on your reasoning, you obviously have no idea what you are talking about. According to your logic, I can say that an elephant is an animal, an elephant has a trunk, therefore all animals have trunks. Logically do you think this makes sense? Secondly what do you mean by logic is sound? Are you a scientologist by any chance? After reading your response, I thought "how on earth is logic sound?" I don't know whether you are either just plain stupid or trying to be funny but please stop trying to conceptualize about things you don't understand about. You will just mislead people even further. I will tell you what. Before you start jumping into conclusion, please re-evaluate yourself. Do more research. Read. Make sure you have a clear idea about the particular topic you want to talk about. Think about whatever you say will make sense to others and not only yourself. If you pretend to have an expertise in something you have little or knowledge in, you will sound even stupider than smarter. No offence buddy but you were in fact talking out of your butt hole. And saddly, your question has been nominated for 100 of the most ridiculous yahoo answers questions as seen on this site: http://uproxx.com/feature/2011/03/100-of-the-most-...

    Sorry to tell you that.
