Combining Part I with Part II, the most obvious and important philosophical question we can answer at least a portion of would be the meaning of life – a question that has burdened humanity for as long as we have existed. Under this theory, consciousness has a clear and defined purpose, and that purpose is to propagate through the universe the best that we are able. The more we, the conscious beings of our universe, grow, learn, and flourish, the more it helps our PGC to win. For us, that means we get to experience life and our universe, and in return, we are to do our best to resist the forces of the AGC that intend to destroy us.

We can also easily answer the problem of evil. If you are religious, looking at evil from the perspective of only our own proverse, it would seem as though the Jewish/Christian/Muslim concept of God or Allah versus Satan or Iblis exists. God/Allah creates in our universe, while Satan/Iblis is the personification of evil that tries to silence and eliminate life. However, if we view both OUs as one whole, we might see instead that there are two opposing peers who both create and both destroy.

For me personally, this was one of the fundamental reasons why classical religion was so difficult to accept. I absolutely refused to believe that a loving god would make humans intrinsically evil, imbue them with free will, and then punish them for all eternity if they gave into that evil without repentance. I also rejected the idea that a lesser god would exist solely for the purpose of malevolence. I find believing in pure evil difficult – I believe that most people feel that they are in the right (or at least justified), even when they commit horrific acts we collectively describe as evil.

Either GC would be theoretically capable of creating a perfect universe, in which there would not be evil or suffering. Such a universe would have no need for quantum mechanics, however, because there would be no competition between peers. I believe that instead, the GCs have ceded full control of the proverse/antiverse pair, because a competition is infinitely more interesting than a sandbox of one's own creation.

Within this interpretation, what we perceive as human (or universal/intrinsic) evil would really be direct results of the AGC executing moves in a way that benefits themself most, by influencing or reinforcing negative behaviors. This direct negative influence into our consciousness could also explain why the intelligence of an animal is often proportional to their propensity to display behavior that could be classified as evil, such as the case with chimpanzees, whales, and dolphins. If a higher percentage of the brain is able to utilize quantum computing, then a higher percentage of the conscious brain can be directly influenced by both GCs – for better and for worse.

The hard problem of consciousness would be another phenomenon that we could explain under this model. If all our consciousnesses are derived from the same underlying (quantum) operations, there may be a reason that we experience certain stimuli in the same way. In terms of computing, we all have “compatible operating systems” when consciousness is translated to its most basic level. This would help to explain the concept of qualia, and how examples of collective consciousness are pervasive among humans and animals alike.

The next possibility is even more strange. The prediction regarding our brains being quantum-classical hybrids could explain altered states of consciousness during meditation, sensory deprivation, and even the use of psychedelic drugs. During both meditation and sensory deprivation, the objective is to calm and quiet the parts of the brain that generally deal with normal, day-to-day stresses and stimuli. Meditation accomplishes this through practicing mindfulness and attempting to focus thoughts to circumvent the brain’s "autopilot". Sensory deprivation achieves this through a more direct method, simply denying that portion of the brain any stimuli. Psychedelics take the full-on brute force method – they directly inhibit activity in that portion of the brain. Disclaimer: Please do not mistake this as advocating illegal drug use, as I absolutely do not. However, this could mean that in all three of these states, the classical portions of subjects’ brains are inhibited, and consciousness is altered in a way that they could more directly experience the quantum influences of both GCs. This could explain why meditation is practiced in nearly every major religion, including Sikhism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity and Islam. It could also explain why the Aztec and Mayan cultures (both of whom were remarkably advanced for their time, as well as extremely brutal in their rituals) worshiped psychedelic mushrooms and used them extensively in religious ceremonies. In addition, this could explain why all three of these practices often lead to visual and auditory hallucinations. If this link is accurate, it may also provide an explanation for reasons behind psychotic diseases such as schizophrenia.

Last, the same hybrid brain prediction may be related to the mystery of why we (and nearly all animals) sleep. We know that the brain uses the time during sleep to create new neural pathways and shuttle toxins out of the brain. Our brains might also be using this time to transfer and reconcile data between its quantum and classical areas, thereby requiring periods with limited conscious experience.
