Which is more likely and why?
1. It is likely that it was created because we have never found evidence of cards, or three-story houses, occurring naturally.
2. This is certainly not true of consciousness.
We do not know much about how consciousness works in 2013, but it is extremely foolish to suggest that we'll never know, and even more foolish to simply make assumptions that involve magic or the supernatural. That's what humanity has done for thousands of years, to explain everything from rain showers to comets to mental illnesses. Where we once had priests and shamans, we now have meteorologists, astronomers, and psychologists. Science has caught up to many apparently supernatural events and shown them to be natural. I have 100% confidence this will prove true with consciousness.
