So we basically need re-branding of the motives of consciousness? Shocked

Yes, that is a very good way of putting it. Ideally what we need is for each person to learn how to "program their own consciousness", or at least more programs to choose from.

The days of your mental operating system (culture, basically) being determined by where you happen to be born and what power elites happen to be in place during that time are over. At least they can be. Now we have the choice of individual personal responsibility in matters of culture and belief systems as provided by accessible distributed information networks and progressively more accessible means of travel. We should use this privilege. And with Bitcoin we finally can put the money where our mouth is and be free not only to believe what we wish, but also to implement it.

The motives of our consciousness is our subconscious. Our conscious is but the tip of the iceberg.

I am aware...

used the term consciousness purposely- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consciousness#Scientific_study

consciousness includes subconscious
