not necessarily. my view on idealism is that there are distinct yet similar minds (which are what we are) and they are part of a greater consciousness (which is what God is). I explained all this in the OP, I suggest you read it.

We've read it. It's just such a heap of entirely unjustified assumptions, which you seem to make out of prejudice, but which you try to convince us are logically necessary. Distinct yet similar minds, part of a greater consciousness. Once you're at that level of complication, it's more parsimonious to adopt materialism.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition
