tapani: How can you gain secret knowledge
of the universe it self, if you can't even see the
things that are present in your life right now?
Silk: For a man who doesn't know where he's going any
road will take him there!
One can search "everywhere" for "god" & get
"nowhere" if the "garment" of "its" abscence is
seamless, which it is! It's not at all unlike the fish
in the water looking for it, the water. It's all
around him however it has no "edges", no defining
lines, therefore he, the fish, can't discern it!
Someone says "where is this god? anyone ever see it?
Where's the evidence?
The abscence of evidence is not evidence of abscence.
If I ever do run into this so called god I shall say
(I think) "Ok, I can accept the fact that you are in
some way responsible for my existence but what is
responsible for yours.. Where did you come from &
where did that which begot you come from & where
did...ad infinitum.. I am in no doubt that this so
called god will say "I was never created I have always
been"..
We humans are totally unfamiliar, inexperienced with
this always been comcept but could be.. Anythings
possible when you do not know for certain...
And thats the way the cookie crumbles.. but who wants
a cookie from their own dough.......... chao/Silk
