May I ask what field of science you're in, Bagseed? (just curious)
It's a good point that humans tend to look for things beyond reason. But at least me personally, I stopped doing that some time ago. Maybe because I'm just too numb and indifferent towards life in general, but things like "but what if, [...] it's like that!" and so on don't phase me anymore. Yeah, it's entertaining to think the universe is an entity that has some kind of awareness and we're part of that and so on and so on, but when you think about it, it's just so far-fetched and is not based on any observable fact. I mean it's just as good as suggesting that our whole universe is within an elementary particle of some other universe or whatever. They're interesting ideas, but that's all they are... products of a curious imagination.
This is not to say that I'm attacking your or anyone's belief, I'm just explaining why it smells like bullshit to me.
