Many believe that finite minds provide evidence of a Divine Mind as their creator.  If we limit our options to theism and naturalism, it is hard to see how finite consciousness could result from the rearrangement of brute matter; it is easier to see how a Conscious Being could produce finite consciousness since, according to theism, the Basic Being is Himself conscious.  Thus, the theist has no need to explain how consciousness can come from materials bereft of it.  Consciousness is there from the beginning.  To put the point differently, in the beginning there were either particles or the Logos.  If you start with particles and just rearrange them according to physical law, you won’t get mind.  If you start with Logos, you already have mind.
