"The theory of God that emerges from a scientific theology need not posit a magician that flouts the laws of physics. These laws do not describe an unconscious reality; they describe the dynamics of conscious agents, finite and infinite, projected into the language and data structures of the spacetime interface of Homo sapiens. The laws of physics do not describe a machine, in which a marginalized ghost of consciousness must perform paranormal tricks to prove its existence. Consciousness need not flout scientific laws that are themselves projected descriptions of the dynamics of consciousness" (p. 200)
From Donald Hoffman's "The case against reality: Why evolution hid the truth from our eyes
