Any emergent epiphenomenon is imo going to be something like a pattern, rather than a thing. And patterns can have meaning for people.
Of course, patterns only exist for the observer, and this would also be true of our 'emergent god'.
As I said- not much of a god at all.
He who desires to worship God must harbor no childish illusions about the matter but bravely renounce his liberty and humanity.
