proof is not absolute

it must be assumed from overwhelming evidence. Doubt can be introduced from almost every quarter on almost everything. When we assume proof it is a spiritual decision in the final analysis. We can never know for absolute surety. It is a very good probability, a percentage possibility. But we are using faith in our judgment in the final conclusion. When we say all things seen came from the unseen it is meant that the unseen comes from the spirit. There are many who do not relate to anything spiritual which assumes on their part that they know much more than any of us actually do know.

on slippery ground

That one Spirit that could manipulate at will gives us a lot of leeway. There must be a reason. We are learning more and more about God everyday. Only trouble is that the more we learn the more we learn there is even more to be learned than before. Only the spirit can understand the Spirit. We are forced to move forward in faith because of the overwhelming unknowns. The more we learn the more awe we experience. We admit the possibility of dimensions and even to more than we are relating to right now. Why are there those of us who can only entertain the knowledge we know while dismissing so casually all the knowledge we do not know? We admit the scientific conclusion there are unseen factors that are revealed in the seen. It takes an expansive spirit to recognize how great existence really is. And is it not odd that the more a person knows the more unsure and aware they are of what they do not know. The more a man respects his ignorance the more intelligent he is. The more he respects his intelligence the more ignorant he is. The atheist scientist stands on the latter slippery ground ignoring all the facts that he does not know.

what goes around

Ideas might be created in a committee but the execution of the idea is diluted according to the number of members in the committee. It is possible for one entity to multiply thoughts and create ideas but if that one entity can interact with another different entity then ideas are fed back and forth creating fuel for a greater constellation of ideas in each entity. However to do this the individuals in the group must learn to think as if alone inside the group noise. Since we all speak for our own benefit it is crucial that we realize our thoughts only apply to ourselves and not to others as well. Once a spirit exists it can create on its' own but carnivorous ones may want to take over those around them. They do this because they are subconsciously losing their sense of existence so they force others into a jacket of their own making that will not last. If it did all the entities of that group would become extinct. We even might call this the Robespierre Correction, because these attempts are always consumed within their own time frame.

binaray nature of the human psyche

If you divide a single subject in two you are half way toward understanding it. Duality can take us far afield, but binary being the number system used by computers, is a mirror image of our mind. This is how we perceive reality two by two. So I stretch a subject across a continuum and establish extreme points at either end. A center freezes things in amber. It does not go anywhere, it does not lead anywhere. So I step back and observe the subject in motion. The dynamic view is a glimpsing panoramic view going in and out our subconscious memories which the static view can, unintentionally or not, be led to set up an entirely different, misleading one. It is not much good for me to think of something while at the same time neglect how I think. It is first far more important how I think than even what I think, since one act leads to the other. Without the first the second is still born.

Spirit is energy generated by belief

There is long standing agreement in virtually every quarter defining God as a Spirit. Spirit is what motivates existence, and literally means breath, suggesting an energy source. From either an undirected reflex, or random assumed direction, to the purpose driven ability to believe, this continuum is at their core, measuring all spirits. They are of such variety and are as numerous, it would seem, as all the suns in the galaxies. These spirits, like space itself, are occupied by energy. This energy radiates power according to the belief behind it. The greatest power, the One from the inaugural Spirit, the ancients called God.

Defining God as Existence

God is the spiritual personfication of Existence. The devil is the spiritual personification of oblivion. Davin Paralee

God is Existence and Geoffrey Berg

Logic demands faith to accommodate a definition of God in order to deal with everything that can be known that we do not yet know. Geoffrey Berg has written a book, the God Paradox, disproving the existence of God. I'll probably get around eventually to reading his book so I can disprove his disproofs. On this subject everyone starts out and ends on the same square, convincing themselves, which is after all why we speak anything at all in the first place. I wager his motivations, deep down inside his spirit, is he suspects there is something to disprove. He is seeking balance like everyone one of us. His title particularly gives away his preconceptions. The one issue usually avoided is any possible definition of God. In an early scan of a review of his effort I detect no attempts to define God yet and it should have been at the fore front. Of course, if God could be proved then there would be no God. One may define God, and we should always define our terms according to Ayn Rand even tho she did not prominentize her definition, but this is not to say we can cancel out a paradox. If God could be proved then there is no requirement of faith. Even the sometimes patronized ancient writers knew that much. God is a Spirit, just like many other unseen forces routinely referred to by physicists, and since there are many spirits the Spirit of God is usually capitalized to distinguish the inaugural spirit. So since God is usually personified as a Spirit, especially by ancient writers, they knew we can only please God through Faith. This was their way of saying that God, the personifier of Existence, is out front of us beyond our knowledge. Our knowledge is so limited as to be ludicrous compared to all that can be known. When we learn anything new it is a given we will learn that there is even more to be learned than we suspected previous to any new knowledge. Our expanding ignorance of all the facts forces us to operate on expanding faith. There is power in the spirit space, as the unseen space, and the ancient writers knew we could achieve anything we put our mind toward. Well, we've all proved that more than once, haven't we? Davin

how eternity become hung in our hearts

There are several powers, often mentioned in the non-religious occult arena, such as the ability to move objects, seemingly just with the mind or perhaps by the power of a spirit under control of forces unknown. This would be a poltergiest, physicists might term it as a space of intense energy. Polter means bluster or rumble and Giest means spirit. These forces are not only not identified, they are not under our control, so we say in that case that there is no proof for them. However there is one proof for them, the fact that we've even just thought of them. Anything we can think of can be brought to fruition. Certain individuals are more dense than others. This point has been mentioned previously. The more dense a charismatic is the greater the mass and as such will attract those of lighter weight. There is a point in the circle of orbiting events when the laws of physics will be apparently reversed. Thus a charismatic is not either good or bad but is defined by his ability to communicatively attract an multitude of others. Science today was magic yesterday.

the galaxy within our heads

Space does not appear to have any limits that we can determine. In fact both time and space are quite elusive and even illusionary. There is as yet unharnessed power in unseen, apparently empty space, such as gravity and electromagnetism. For want of a better term, the spirit within us is a space where unseen entities generate forces as yet beyond our control. But these forces propel us forward to develop other entities which mimic the necessities in our world view. It was once said and is still commonly theorized that there is enough electricity in our brains to power a flashlight indicating the presence of electricity or even magnetism like water on the moon. There is a galaxy in our mind. Existence has hung eternity in our hearts.

fear and greed in the gathering dusk

It is not easy to act opposite to perceptions of fear and greed. Just like, when is seeing is not believing, and when is believing seeing? I sometimes look back on other markets and think what if only I could see then what I see now. Markets were fought out in houses, houses I've lived in, all over the country and in other countries. I had a lot of well liked visitors, mostly friends, and they were welcome whether I was there at the time or not. The primary attraction, of course, was my computer. I had the first computer among my friends at that time. One was angry that I would consider such a thing, even though he worked with them at his employment during the day. In retrospect the glorified calculator I thought was a computer would turn our world upside down. I brought it home in a series of boxes which, prominent in my memory now, included a soldering iron. Even today you can hear one of us say, where is the iron? They mean the soldering iron, now cordless, which we call the mouse. I say this to mention for first time callers that anyone might post here. I just do not always get around to clean it up, even the prank talk, posted to imitate someone else. But since starting to post here publicly notice everyone, for the most part, are more acceptably behaved than in former days. Everyone has their own computers now, one is building a new one right now, for cad. They even, like myself, naturally have more than one, but they still come around to visit and will often pop a post or two into one of my computers. At first their entries were left there to amuse me but since I've opened it up to everyone the nonsense has noticeably retreated. BTW...Sometimes I may break off unceremoniously due to the press of physical confirmities. Davin Paralee, contemplating the gathering dusk....
