Based on your suggestion, that is to aim to create oB (omnipotent being), a 'conscious civilisation'(collective consciousness) came to my mind. For us, the 'conscious civilisation' would look like as an omnipotent being. We would be the "genes" of these "beings". Actually we would be the keeper of "memes" coined in 1976 by famous evolutionary biologist w:Richard Dawkins, refers to a unit of cultural w:information transferable from one mind to another. Genes exsist so DNA molecules can survive. We exsist so our genes can survive. Civilisation exsist so we can survive. Genes have the information how to build our body. We have the information how to build a civilisation.

By undertanding how consciousness works, and some other things, we would keep the information how a "good" conscious civilisation should function. Those information would be copied when a new civilisation is created. The newly created civilisation would live in isolation with the other so it can change and improve or die, using the force of natural selection. Then it will be just metter of time when a civilisation will be able to leave our solar system, before the sun burns out. Ervinn 03:28, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
