I'm only commenting on the end of your post about thinking and knowledge.
The great thinking mind of humans
The earth is flat....ooops!
The earth is the center of the universe.......ooooops!
Light travels through the Ether...........oooops!
God wants us to kill or convert our enemies,then we will have peace...a very big oooops!
The Universe is static oooops!
The expansion of the universe is slowing down.........oooops!
Prohibition will solve our society problems.........ooooops!
Donald Trump won't go far in the elections.........ooooops!
People who believe in a God are deluded........some are,some are not
People who don't believe in a God are deluded.....some are,some are not.
Thinking and knowledge from "others" are only part of our beings.
Feeling and personal "knowledge/knowing" without scientific proof can be much more rewarding,,but sometimes can't be shared or explained to other's
The moon is made of cheese.....not sure,it just might be.  |
I admire the honesty & openness of this posting.
It has been referred to as "standing on the shoulders of giants" whereby we pat ourselves on the back for being very clever yet really alot of the things that we encounter in life are borrowed from others.
Our languages, customs & fashions are not original or unique to us at all - we didn't design them or develop them yet many people give them selves a sense of superiority for what is essentially following the heard.
I admire those who test the water for themselves, who double check facts for themselves & are prepared to keep an open mind despite whatever the "experts" are saying at the moment.
If it works for us, if we have seen things for ourselves or have strange experiences that might defy logic - as long as we are honest then its all anyone can do.
I like the unexplained, I like a good mystery - the universe is just that.
I never hear Shivani try to convert anyone which is why she interests me, shes not selling **** or trying to self convince - shes always learning ... sound like you are too.
