God is unconscious or he is not looking eg not omniscient

Why God is not what we believe him to be
(God is unconscious or he is not looking eg not omniscient)


First I have to explain about the "double slit experiment". Start with a very sensitive controller for a light or electron beam and shine it towards 2 slits rather close together. Let the light that comes through the slits shine on a back panel. The result you see is as pattern of black and white bands indicative of a wave with some photons falling together in the white band(eg adding together) while in the dark band the particles have canceled each other out (eg subtracting together). This is well known and even expected, but what happens when we slow down the number of "light packets" called photons (or single electrons if you are using an electron gun) until you are firing just 1 electron or 1 photon? Well nothing changes you still see a wave. This begs the question what interfered with the single photon/electron? Being a rather smart experimenter you ask the question what slit did the photon/electron go through? So you place a detector over 1 of the slits and magically that pattern of wavy lines is gone and in it's place is a shotgun pattern consistent with a random number of dots hitting the screen is in it's place.
After a long boring discussion about the nature of consciousness and where the hell it is or is not. We end up concluding that consciousness caused the change in the experiment. This means that if a conscious mind observes something in a quantum state of Bi-location (this being in many places at once) the waveform collapses into a particular particle and single position.
So if an all knowing deity is observing us and all things all events are known to him etc. Then this deities consciousness must have the same effect as if you or I were looking at it. Since the wave is not collapsed we can conclude that God is not watching or God is not conscious.
