No, your mind is not part of any "greater mind."

Where would you get that idea?

since all who possess a mind will be part of that greater mind.

This idea of bioLogos or Universal Mind is Greek thinking in origin anyways, so you are espousing pagan theology/philosophy in any case.

It's true that most ancient Greek thinkers posited an intelligent mind behind the universe, but that doesn't mean everyone else is limited to their thinking on the matter even when we agree with elements of it.

the Golden Rule, sorry Elmer, i for one figured that out when still a young child before any priest got hold of me. Had something to do with good sound ranchers influences, wise old grandmothers, fathers & men who brought back the lessons of war & secular teachers that also reinforced one of mankind's most universal wisdoms of mutual treatment & human caring.

We certainly shouldn't believe your self-serving self-praise. You don't practice the Golden Rule because you know that Christianity provides great comfort and promotes mental and physical health ... yet despite that knowledge you mock it and heap abuse on it and maliciously seek to destroy something that benefits people. That's the opposite of the Golden Rule. You want to harm people for no reason but your own animosity.
