If God is merely an idea, then He is qualia, and if He is manifest then he is extremely qualiadelic. To notice qualia, however, is not necessarily to have a religious epiphany, but it may be the tipping point for some sort of conversion experience.
The rewards of noticing qualia are greater than the treasures of books if for no other reason than the set of qualia contains in it all the treasures of books and more. Qualia includes all the contents of books yet to be written; it includes everything we can sense – as well as everything we shall evolve to sense in the future. Qualia contains the three dimensions of length, width and height, the dimension of time, and every other dimension still awaiting our discovery.
How can we afford not to notice qualia? It is a momentary god waiting to appear in some form or another to save each of us when things fall apart – it will ultimately be the solution to the mess we humans have made here on Earth.
