Charles Darwin used to say that whenever he ran into something that contradicted a conclusion he cherished,
he was obliged to write the new finding down within thirty minutes.
Otherwise his mind would work to reject the discordant information, much as the body rejects transplants.
Man's natural inclination is to cling to his beliefs, particularly if they are reinforced by recent experience….

Separation is reality... until it isn't - then it is seen that it never was.
Reality seems to be viewed from two different positions after awakening.
From the Whole.
And from the small separate me.
Both are equally as valid -and both are totally invalid.
After all -what's left when all interpretation is dropped?
Just One Big Whole Mystery.

Senses/Emotions become, as and through You.
But they are not you.
sensations/emotions are expressed AS YOU-- You are not the sensations/emotions.
You are the EXPERIENCING of sensations/emotions.
There is no-one to experience spirit and soul.
For that would require an experiencer.
There is only experiencing --- for no-one
Just like a dream.
The dream is real, 'apparently' as sensation sensed.Reality is real, you are not just a dream! If you drop a big piece of steel on your foot are you going to know you did that?
Trust me, you will not dream that away!!
But for who and what?
All there is is conscious sensation.
Similarly, there is sensation/emotion felt in a nightly dream also.

I don't want to rehash the meaning of logic
or any other distinction between factions of
truth seekers. you say = truly works for you.
That is exactly the point I am trying to make--there is
no difference between Theism and Scientism. Just
groups of people lookin' for the truth. That's all.
It seems that truth has been fractured into many pieces
and each of these groups has latched onto one of these
pieces and is trying to see the whole truth in there
little piece. Not going to happen.
What can seal the breach? Maybe a coming together
of the Heart and the Mind.
Theism can use a little logic.
It's going to take some logic to understand that God
is something that is unknowable from where we are.
Trust in his son and -relax-.
Scientism can use a little faith and heart (courage)
It's going to take a leap of faith to solve the quantum

As for the purpose of life and everything, there's none; it all came from chaos.
As for living life, as it is, well, that's a different question. To know the answer one must live it fully.
Hi Mel....although I appreciate that this is your way of thinking, I myself have never been able to align with this kind of thought.
Throughout my life I experienced knowledge of my spirit and soul, you may say there is nobody to have that experience but my experience would say that your statement is fallacious....
My experience is my truth!!!

If I see a train coming and your on the track...if I don't tell you, it will be a pity for you and a shame on me....
I do think that for the benefit of this forum and perhaps our world, that we do not purchase one way tickets to relativism city, especially without a map.
