The Nature Of God - Alan Watts
This chap is using mental gymnastics to demonstrate to waverers that things do not have to change with a few"adjustments" in direction of thinking. Mostly perceptions . In the process he is making countless bloopers. Mistakes which require little extra thought to dismiss.
For example the call for ' substance in both male and female . Well I know that I am I. But I respect everyone else's I (ego) and want to improve them.
It causes the speaker to try to equate substance by ' promoting ' females . Well I have always known that Men and Women are equal in capabilities. The speaker has forgotten that it takes BOTH sexes to make a baby and although Males do not always ' stick around ',if they leave they leave a deficit in their children which can only be compensated by another male.
i repeat
God = The great unknown = Spirituality= everything else in the religious train of thought
That is why I am an agnostic and not an atheist who would reveal the proper way forward.
Deal with your own unknowns before you say that you know anything to anyone else.
@FvckY0u Not really but I enjoy an interchange with you and FEEL that we are approaching each others views peacefully.
@FvckY0u You are obviously a deep thinker but perhaps you should be careful what depths you plumb
@FvckY0u I do not know much about intuition but to me it is controlled by past and maybe dangerous personal experiences and is therefore possibly dangerous to truth seekers. Just surmising and not concluding or asserting
@FvckY0u I am not going to stop you using intuition if you do not stop me surmising. It is he start if many useful jurnies. It is a stab at a possible hypothesis
@FvckY0u That is your PERCEPTiON talking . To find out what is real ,you should read the books of BEAU LOTTO who now is working to change public perceptions but in the limited field of improving the public(potential customers) perceptions of firms by giving them a gloss. I woud hope that you report back
