Oh ye of little faith! I'm disappointed in this self-revelation, Laramie.
It's nice to feel that Life is GOOD. That value judgment may make you a
happy person, but not a very thoughtful or intellectual one. Life is a
balance of the good and the bad, just as the evolutionary world is.
Morality is man's means of ordering his world toward what he sees as
beneficial and useful. This can't be achieved so long as man is a Pollyanna
or believes that he is subservient to the vicissitudes of Nature.
[L]:
Yea, I was being light hearted with this comment. Trusting that life is
good doesn't mean you avoid the bad. On the contrary.
[H]:
I can see I've gotten nowhere with you, Laramie. To reject Cosmology is to
reject a fundamental theory. "Grounded in Existence" makes no sense to me,
nor does "Existence is the undifferentiated Absolute Source". All existence
is differentiated, hence it cannot be the Absolute Source. You've just
admitted that Existence is multi-dimensional!
[L]:
What is the implication of your concluding sentence?
Cheers,
Laramie
