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

Hierarchy of structure ladies. you have to go higher and lower. If I take you apart I find no "you". You still "are". If we go higher. Can an universal "awareness" emerge from the "pieces that we see? The answer is far more probably "yes" than "no". In fact so much so that it is silly not to assume it. as silly as assuming there were no planets elsewhere in the 1970's.

Then we can move into more measurable e defenses of this logic. That's where "philosophy bs can stop. An artist/philosophy can build the coolest fastest looking car ever (philosophy paper) ... till he has to race it. Engineer the truth ladies, its the best we can do for now.
