i think we can all agree on
-our senses are at best an approximation of what is "out there"
-mathematics is the most accurate approximation of what is "out there" but is doomed to remain forever just an approximation of increasing accuracy
so then just what the hell do you think is "out there" ???

I really don't know anything beyond my own reality. We brew alcohol and take drugs to reach a 'Better Place'. So I assume the present is the 'better place' manufactured by a preceding paradigm.

As such it seems a crime to change it, since it fits somepeople like a glove.

All I can think of is to add the option of retiring to bliss when faced with being treated as we have treated.

something asking this very question.
-------------------- Man is timid and apologetic; he is no longer upright; he dares not say "I think," "I am," but quotes some saint or sage. He is ashamed before the blade of grass or the blowing rose.Man postpones or remembers; he does not live in the present, but with reverted eye laments the past, or, heedless of the riches that surround him, stands on tiptoe to foresee the future. He cannot be happy and strong until he too lives with nature in the present, above time TRANSCEND

What is out there, that I cannot perceive now with my available senses? I do not know. But whatever it is, it is intrinsically dependent upon a God of Love. I know that for sure.

I do not agree. It is a tool that has it's own place and use, but that does not mean it is the most accurate approximation. It's really only like a marker that keeps track of and helps analyze what we already perceive with our natural senses.

That which I cannot perceive..
(Not to be a moron, but is that not kind of obvious?)
