Just curious, how do you know there IS a unifying intelligence? How do you know we
do not exist in chaos? Finally, what does it matter?
Just curious to see what sort of verbal constructions appear. However, Jenell, you
realize that you cannot "prove" anything but must accept it on faith alone which is
a powerful mental construct. P'raps this could be taken to email rather than the
mailing list since we are wandering slightly from K.
If you need to believe in something specific, that is great. I think archetypes,
theologic linquistics and religion in general are quite useful for some people.
However, it seems that it is so easy to get wrapped up in religious trappings
(mental, emotional or physical trappings) and lose sight of spirituality.
Thus, for me, I find it best to discard the frills and frivolty and focus on the Me
and the You.
-Steve.
