11. I don't think so
In my personal opinion, of course.

Obviously scientists, philosophers and theologians are not immune when it comes to anthropomorphizing the universe. Some feel the need for it in order to fit their beliefs so they do it. And that is okay on a personal level. But it does look silly if they do try to make that into an objective truth.

Asking if it is impossible to prove that there is such consciousness is like asking if it is impossible to prove whether my computer chair suffers every time I let out a fart. And I had a lot of homebrew last night.
