What God is to the Universe is what your mind is to your body

A person with their mind is able to control the hands etc. Thus from the perspective of the mind the body is in its control. So what if the Big bang and as such the universe is the creation of a Mind? Our own existence is the best evidence that this is a possibility.

I followed you until you tried to connect the big bang to the mind. What if? Questions can be asked all day. Can you do anything with those questions though? So far you have no evidence, even if you are using the word.
I don't believe you. Get over it.

A false equivalence leveraged for poor analogy, foisted aloft by a non sequitur. Gratz.

So, basically, God spends a lot of time telling the Universe not to scratch its balls in public? Because my mind seems to spend an inordinate amount of time on that very subject.

(Question for the logic bomber: Is a false equivalence the same thing as conflating two things?)

Let's start and end with you actually informing yourself what mind is by scientific standards and how it works, dear OP. And then we can have no discussion, since you're already missing the mark by a lightyear or so. Otherwise shove your preaching effort up where the sun doesn't shine, if you would indulge me.
