Does it make sense to speak of "Universal Consciousness" or "Universal Intelligence"?

RE: Does it make sense to speak of "Universal Consciousness" or "Universal Intelligence"?
My previous posts did account for the differences in scale. The reality is that quantum processes underlie every physical process at every scale. Classical physics is just a technique that bundles together a vast number of quantum events for the sake of simplicity. It just isn't true that classical physics is ontologically correct at some specific scale. QM is true. Classical is a convenient fiction.

And your assertion that consciousness is brain chemistry is just that...an unsupported assertion.
