I quick dictionary and google search had yielded nothing. I still don't know what Abraxian actually means. In any case, I couldn't give myself over to such a credence simply because it would betray fundamental roots of common sense.
Truthfully, I don't see the difference in believing in a god, or a conscious universe.
Of course, I don't know what a universe that has always been means, but that is exactly why I have no belief on the matter. I think it is completely secular, there is no 'magic' behind it, and it can't be known. Why believe in anything? Speculation seems a lot more rational. All I know is that the universe is here, and that it obeys laws of physics and science. How it got here hardly matters (to my day to day life). It's all probably a bunch of math anyway.
And in any case, you don't know what an Abraxian higher power means since we can't even begin to communicate with it. Why must I know what a universe that has always been means?
