Why are humans so often seeking to bind clarity about our universe behind a non-connected ideology? Meaning, outside of theism we find ourselves in a scientific endeavoring; and both sides agree at some point connectedness among 'life' rang unshakably true - via faith and via experimentation. However we skip right over most of that in seeking truths in complex detail - when - it would make much more sense to me to find the simple truth in reality.

I see the world (Earth, specifically, then my perception of it, and ultimately the cosmos behind that) as inherently connected at the most basic of levels. Science has shown us that much of the physical world that we can interact with is uncannily common in structure - we and stars are essentially made up of the same basic materials - as is everything else in the cosmos.

So why then, do we concede a connected cosmos at its core (basic building blocks) and instead seek to dissect this basic cosmic connection - via theism, or reality, creationism or intelligence on cosmic scale?

To me, if everything you can see and touch and interact with was at one point basic building blocks of all things, why would consciousness be different?
