Consider the Vastness of Space
Does the earth feel? Experience? Pleasure or pain?
What about Saturn? Lots of action there. Could be a soul washing machine.
What about the Sun? Could there be a life form in there experiencing pleasure or pain?
What about the galaxy? Could consciousness somehow emerge at some galactic timescale from the Milky Way?
What about those hominids on Earth? Meat sacks? Ooh looks like pleasure and pain. Simplistic beings, with grand ideas. They move air by flapping meat to communicate.
