:)) You mean, _this_ is the biggest fault you noticed? :)
First of all, the mind doesn't produce the reality. The mind forms an
image of the reality. This image can be more or less accurate,
depending on the state and quality of the mind, and the mind _can_
become perfectly aligned with the reality, which is called
enlightenment, or realization. In this state, one can actually affect
the external reality, which explains the miracles performed by the
saints, and in this case, you can actually say that such a man is in
fact God - there is no difference, because the subjective reality is
united with the supreme reality, which is God. Jesus was one such
example - not because he "created God", as Hammond the Kook would say,
but because he was in perfect alignment with God's will and
consciousness, and his nature was thus divine. He didn't create God,
he manifested God on the physical plane. This is called the Divine
aspect of the Son. The bodiless presence of God's will is called the
Holy Spirit, and the aspect of God as the creator and the ultimate
reality beyond all, is called the Father. This is a rather nice way of
putting it; comparing it to the aggregate states, Father is gaseous,
Holy Spirit is liquid, and the Son is solid. All are water - identical
in quality, but different in state of manifestation.

Also, the brain doesn't produce the mind; it just allows the mind to
manifest through a physical body. Without the body, the soul functions
just fine, and this functioning includes the mind. Actually, if one is
in perfect alignment with the reality, he can manifest a physical body
by an act of will - which is what Jesus did, when he rose on the third
day - so, even when the brain is dead, the soul can create one in
order to manifest itself in the physical.

So, when the fundamental flaws of Hamond's Stupid Piece of Garbage are
exposed, the rest is irrelevant: even if everything else that he says
is true (which I have reasons to doubt, because the experts seem to
think that he's an incompetent moron), his theory is still worthless
(which everybody except him apparently knows).
This is the reason why I killfiled Hammond, and I still follow the
thread - everybody else seems to have something interesting to
contribute.
