In the vast scope of the universe, I see "human performance on a profound degree of cognitive tasks" to be utterly insignificant and irrelevant.  In a realm of immense time and space, mortals' thoughts both weak and strong are less than a whisper of a heartbeat.

"Wake up and find out eventually who you really are. In our culture, of course, they’ll say you’re crazy and you’re blasphemous, and they’ll either put you in jail or in a nut house (which is pretty much the same thing). However if you wake up in India and tell your friends and relations, ‘My goodness, I’ve just discovered that I’m God,’ they’ll laugh and say, ‘Oh, congratulations, at last you found out.' " -Alan Watts

Meh, he's confused between the terms 'God' and 'Lead Programmer'.

1) The traditional theistic definition of God includes omniscience, omnipotence...., and the ability to generate non-trivial intelligence.

2) Mankind PARTIALLY satisfies the theistic God definition, on the horizon of scientifically OBSERVED/OBSERVABLE sequences; mankind has ALREADY created brain based models that compute 10^14 of the estimated total, 10^+16 synaptic NEURONAL operations per second.

3) God is then SIMPLY PROPERLY definable, as any likely non-omniscient entity [ie MANKIND] with the ability to generate non-trivial artificial intelligence.

4) Other theistic properties [omniscience, omnipotence, omni...] are NOT LIKELY, on the horizon of said scientific observation.

And if you take cranberries and stew them like applesauce they taste much more like prunes than rhubarb does.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Thanks for the laugh, Jordan. But seriously, dude, if your serious, visit psychiatrist.

P.S. Do you REALLY need immortality, when you can get so fucking weird being mortal?
