Meh, energy probably is the essence of sentience, in the same way that mint is the essence of mint chocolate chip ice cream. I'm not so sure energy is alive though, and...frankly, it seems cross purpose to assert as much, considering that we're proposing a sentient entity which would not be alive by any of the many loose definitions of life - and so, we have a problem. The thing you want to tell us about, a god, a creator with a capital c, is unlikely to be an animal..for example... in your description of it. Just as your own example of a sentient rock. The rock is sentient, but not alive. Like AI might be. Is energy malfunctioning in the case of rocks, ai, and gods, or can we dispense with the second assertion as a failure of your own imagination or terms - in favor of preserving the first?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
