It’s natural for human brain to find explanations for the supernatural. We are born with a “God” placeholder in our brain, just as infinity is a concept.
The idea that consciousness is 5th fundamental force sounds great but doesn’t make any sense.
Everything in universe is interaction of particles in force fields. We have mathematical definitions for them in standard model of physics.
And consciousness is what we experience in our brains as a model of reality. It’s a much more complex emergent concept arising from how neurons are wired together to process input -> output signals. Consciousness boils down to signal processing. Which down the stack of atoms and subatomic particle requires the fundamental forces.
Very different things. Put in a different way, they are fundamental because they explain everything in observable universe.
I regard consciousness as fundamental. I regard matter as derivative from consciousness. We cannot get behind consciousness. Everything that we talk about, everything that we regard as existing, postulates consciousness.

That being said, I respect your right to believe.
