Post #180 "The projection of God"

The transference of humanity into God takes place as God is the image of humanity. God is created in the image of mankind. As Intelligence imagines Perfection, humanity's idea of Perfection becomes its God. Humanity images its own image of God. Imaging is done through transference. The transference of humanity into Reality cannot take place in Reality, as Reality is Reality and image is image. Only in dream and desire does the transference take place. A resultant projected image cannot become its own original. The image of God that results is actually the image of one's interpretation and impression of God. Hence, God becomes image. God becomes the image of humanity, the image of creation. Reality remains Reality. The projection of the desire to become God results in the image which is made up of one's own interpretation of who and what God is and especially what they need and desire God to be. God becomes archetype. In order for humanity to believe in the God it has created, it must do away with anything that goes beyond. This means confining God to what intelligence has created god to be. God must be confined. But it is not only God that must be confined within the limits of intelligence, creation itself must be confined within the limit and limitations of creation. God and creation can only be what intelligence allows it to be. Nothing can exist that does not begin within Time, Place, and Matter. Nothing can exist that lies outside the dreams and desires of intelligence. Until intelligence dreams and desires and images, alternate life or alternate dimensions do not exist.

The first step to becoming God after the dream and the desire is the determination of what qualities are desired. Which qualities are the one that will bring about Perfection as God is Perfection? The most obvious characteristics that seem to be universally desired are those characteristics that are considered the best and the most God-like, as in All-knowing, All-mighty, All-powerful, Most exalted and on and on. It doesn't take long, however, to realize that Perfection, the Perfection of God, does not exist in creation. The only way to become Perfect is to seek for Perfection outside creation. Not knowing what exists outside creation, we rely on our ability to create which is the same as to image. We dream. We desire. We image. We exist within our imaging. Our images are our creation. We do not know what is outside of creation. We do not even know that there is an outside-of-creation. We can only surmise what we long for. No wonder we do not know satisfaction and keep on longing.

"Post # 179 "Who, Really, is God?"

Who is God? Really! Who or What is God? Is God who God is, or is God who we make God out to be? Can we know that which we call, God? Can we name God and call God....God? When we say that God is in our lives, is that God the Reality or is that God that which we have determined God to be? Didn't the word 'god' come from ancient personifications of nature and the need to appease that which was feared? Do we not still try to appease that same fear? Basically, that fear is the fear of the unknown. Is not the fear of God, basically, the fear of the unknown? After all, God is the author of life and the controller of death. Was not that need to appease the unknown, the root of what we think of as worship? Is not worship a form of appeasement meant to soften God, to make God approachable, to form a relationship with God to do.....to do what?...to be our servant, to provide for us and grant our wishes, to give us power beyond our own finite power, to give us the power of God? Does not worship give us the right to the Name of our God, to be the God we claim and possess as our own even to leading us into battle ...and of course, to winning the war so we can fight in that God's name???  and make this God responsible for declaring war? And what about the other side, that side we are waring and fighting against, somehow they seem to be claiming the power of the same God, and are fighting, as we are, in that same God's Name under the same God's banner and for the same God's purpose.......Is this God, Reality, or is this God the God we have created? Its like we not only desire to become God but that we desire to become the God we have created. Our God seems to have all the same goals we do.,, in fact, seems to have the same characteristics.....seems to want what we want and to reject what we reject. This God we have created seems to have the same thoughts as we do that seem to concentrate on war, on 'besting'. on competition and winning everything at any cost, including, throughout history, more than billions and billions of lives. Something just is not adding up. If on the other hand we say that God is a God of Love, that God is a God of Life....now things really do not add up. The God of love would never admonish killing and torture, would never admonish competition that says 'I am better than you and I am going to prove it.' We would never see the God of Love and Life at sport competitions or any of the events that call forth worship.....worship of all the gods we have created, to whom we do homage, under whose banners we claim to march and begin wars for and die for. It just does not make sense...this God we have raised and then,  in God's own Name, thrown into the dirt as we march on over slain victims, killed to honor and obey our God.

We seek perfection. We seek God's Perfection. Its in our genetic make-up. Perfection is what we determine perfection to be and the definition is not always the same to everyone. To become perfect, to become God, for God and perfection are the same, we need to determine the qualities that we see Perfection made up of. Because we see God as all-powerful, power is the quality we seek to become Perfect, to become God. This need to be powerful, the most powerful,.... to be beyond the power of creation, to the power of God. Here we see that Perfection and God are the same thing. And in desiring Perfection, we desire to become God. There lies deep within humanity the desire to become God. The desire is meant to be hidden and denied. No one will admit to wanting to become God. What would people think? It is safer to admit to wanting to be perfect. In fact, this seeking for perfection has been turned into an asset and training begins very early in life. Training to be Perfect is our life. Its our culture. Its what we do. Its who we are. So who is God? What is God? Is there a Real God or just the God we have created? Does Reality have or need a God? Reality is Reality. We can't name it or change it or possess it. It is just there if we allow if to be. And if we do not allow it to be nothing is changed. Reality still Is...just not for us. Its just a matter of Choice, really.

Post #178 "The Creation of God"

In the projection of Reality onto the surface called earth, called universe, called creation...what happens to Reality? What happens to the original...the one that is imaged? What becomes of the original if the projection is successful? If the image of the Reality sees itself as that Reality, could that original continue to exist? The answer is "no", the original could not be allowed to exist, especially to the image, for if it remained, the image would always be the image. The image does not desire to be an image but to be the original, to be that which has entity, to be that which had infinity. But what happens? What really happens? Could there be an exchange of places between an original and its image? Could the image become that Reality, become that desired God? If so, what happens to reality? What happens to God/Reality? We know that Reality cannot be projected, but creation does not know this, or if it does know it way down deep, it surly cannot risk admitting it. So going from the viewpoint of the created, what does Intelligence suppose happens to Reality that it believes it has traded places with? And by trading places, means doing away with Reality. For the image to be successful in fulfilling desire, the original must be done away with. The image must be killed or in some way utterly destroyed.

When the desire to become God, to become the Reality, projects into space, it returns as an image  rather than as transference had taken place as intended. The energy of desire projects into space, churns the primordial waters, and returns as it cannot penetrate the walls of its own creation. The desire cannot attain access to Reality as Reality lies beyond the walls of creation and so returns to its sender as an image of the sender's own attributes. When the desire is to become God, to become Reality, the desire cannot attain to God's Reality. The desire to become God, to become Reality returns as an image of the desired in the desirers' characteristics. The result is very distorted and actually the opposite of that which is desired. Where infinity was the main desire, finiteness resulted. Where entity was desired, brokenness resulted, where knowledge of love was desired, hatred, competition and wars resulted. The desire to become Reality creates God as the image of Reality rather than the desired perfection of a successful transference based on Intelligence's ideas and dreams and desires, based on Intelligence's preconceived ideas of Perfection ,and hence, of God.

The result of the projection of Reality onto and into Intelligence is creation. All that has been created is the image of the intention to become what one is not. The image is returned to the one desiring transference who now, incorrectly, identifies with the image as self. The image is a reflection of what the person assumes is God, and incorrectly setting God into the position of Reality rather than the archetype of one's own dreams and desires. The person imitates and becomes their own interpretation of God rather than actually becoming Reality for they have God and Reality confused because they do not know Reality and so have named and designed God to their own specifications and needs. One assumes that becoming God, becoming Reality is a process and that they are in the process. They see their lives as preparation for becoming God/Perfection. What lies behind or beneath the
creation of God other than the desire to become the other? We become what we dream and desire. When the desire is unknowable and unattainable, we create the image and pretend that we know what we have chosen. We desire Reality but it does not exist for creation, so we image it and call it God. We strive for the Perfection of the God we have created to represent our dreams and desires.

Post #177 "Transference into Reality"

Can transference take place if the one desired remains? How can one become the other if the other remains? If a transference truly takes place, how could the one desired remain? There is no way that the desired one could remain. So what becomes of that one, the other one, the one that was the object of desire? In the transference, does that one not lose identity and become 'no one'? Can transference truly take place if desired one remains? If Reality is what is desired, can desire alter Reality or does desire alter only the one desiring to become Reality, to become God? If Reality is desired, does this in any way change Reality? Of course not, there is no way creation can change Reality or even touch Reality in any way. For one reason, creation and Reality are not in the same level or same degree or same dimension, in other words, in the same mode of existence, for existence is not possible for image. As the host of the image, Reality can have an effect on creation for creation images Reality. Creation, however, as image, can have no effect on Reality. Yet, would not transference demand the removal, or better  yet, the death, of that other one. That other one that seems to stand in the way of creation achieving its goal of becoming God, of becoming the Reality. So, if that which is and is of creation desires to become God or become Reality, God and/or Reality must be removed. Creation must believe that the transference has been accomplished and God and/or Reality are gone and never existed. Creation must believe that it alone has all that was desired and dreamed about that was God, that was Reality. Creation must believe in its infallibility, its infiniteness, and in its entity.

On the side: Within creation, what if the one desired was a god? Could a god lose identity? What would become of the other one, thee one that was the object of the desire? What would become of that other one, the one that lost its identity? Can transference truly take place if one remains ? Can being desired alter Reality? Would not transference demand the death of that other one? What if that original was a god, could a god lose identity? History would prove that many gods have lost identity. Do we not, daily, come in contact with and hear about gods that have lost their identity? What is a god anyway, but that which is worshipped? When a god is no longer worshipped does that god then exist? Has transference taken place?

In projection, an image of an original or a host is projected onto a surface that seemingly changes the reflecting surface so that it is meant to resemble the original. In transference the reflecting surface becomes the original. The reflecting surface is that one desiring to become other than it is. Example:  A desires to become B through a transference of B's persona or B's essence onto A. Through transference, the image is seen to change places with the desired object. Ideally, if the transference went as planned, the one that desires would see itself as the Reality, but in the case of becoming God or becoming the Reality the one that desires becomes a distorted and inverted image . Actually, the opposite effect is all that is achieved. That which has now become image sees itself as having transferred and takes on the new role. It is, however,  only role playing. The transference never took place. At least not as planned and hoped for.

Post # 176 "Projection of Reality's Image"

Creation is the projected image of Reality. Can Reality be projected? Can Reality be projected or is it an impression of Reality which is projected, making creation the result of Intelligence's dreaming and desires? If Reality is able to be projected, Reality must be knowable or at least, readable. Is Reality knowable? Is Reality readable? Again, can Reality be projected or is the perception which designs its own impressions of Reality that is projected? Can Reality be known through its image or is the projected image of  Reality not Reality at all, but the image, the image which is the opposite, the distorted, the reversed, the inverted , and opposite of itself? Then, is creation that which Intelligence imagines or images? Projection requires a surface on to which to project an image. Of course, the projection of Reality onto a surface would be impossible and would result in great distortion. Besides the image being greatly distorted to the point of being unrecognizable, the image is distorted also through  the fact that surface of creation is not at all compatible to the projection of Reality. In fact, as afore mentioned, it is not possible to project Reality, only an impression can be projected so the result is great distortion and the reverse of what was expected. Reality can be known only through the image.....Reality is opposite creation, consequently, Reality cannot be comprehended. Creation longs to be as Reality, as intelligence longs to be its impression of its God. Although creation longs to be Reality, creation cannot even comprehend Reality. Where there is finiteness....infiniteness is longed for. Where there is brokenness, entity is longed for. Where there is no truth, truth is longed for. Creation does not know infiniteness. Creation does not know entity. Creation does not know Truth.

If Reality could be projected on to one that dreams, desires and chooses to become the Reality, to become God, would the planned transference take place? Would this desire, would this choice, would the resultant projection bring about the transference of one into another? What if the dreamer, the one who desires, the chooser, believes that the transference has taken place or is about to soon happen, would it not be much of what our existence is about here on earth, here in creation? Do we not already believe ourselves to possess God?

Post #175 "Lost Reality"

What is Real? What does Real mean? Have we confused what we think of as real with Reality itself? There is Reality and there is the image of Reality. We do not understand that if Reality exists, non-reality must also exist. To get any understanding of what is Real ,we must distinguish what is Real from what is the image of Reality. That which is created is not real but is image. Creation is the image of Reality. As Creation is created, creation exists in its own created Time, in its own created Place or surfaces, and in and on its own created Substance. But neither its Time, its Place, nor its Substance is the 'stuff'' of Reality. Image can only reflect in its own Time, Place, and in its own Substance all of which are nebulous and do not exist to Reality. Creation is made up of the dreams, desires, and the choice of Intelligence. Intelligence chooses. The function of Intelligence is Choosing. What is created begins and ends and consequently does not exist at all to and in Reality. Creation is image. To those in creation, to humanity, there is great confusion over God. Creation has created the God of Creation so consequently is unable to see that which is Reality and sees and replaces Reality with its God, god and gods...all representative of humanity itself. The God of Creation is the image of Reality. The transference had to be made to allow for Intelligence to become God for there lies deep within humanity the desire to become God. Intelligence can never become other than what it is for creation is image. As Creation is image, creation's God is image. Creation and its God are the image of Reality.

Intelligence Choose to become what it is not. The result is image...what Intelligence sees itself as. Intelligence creates Perfection and then tries to live in that perfection. So to, Intelligence creates God as Intelligence sees God as perfection. The result is the image of Reality, known as God. Would not an image be the distorted reproduction of its own efforts , thereby creating itself and providing for its own reality? Image is projected desire that forms matter from its own energy when coming in contact with is own created surface. Image is energy that grows from desire. Desire created the energy from which choice brings about created reality. Can an image that has resulted from projection of an interpretation of Reality onto a created surface be without distortion? Can Reality be projected in the first place? Can Reality be projected or is the 'imaged' reality that which is projected? If Reality could be projected on to Intelligence as in humanity, that humanity that desires and chooses, would the planned transference take place? Would this desire, would this choice, would this resulting projection, bring about the transference that would change one into another? What would happen, then, to the one who is the object of the desire and the choice. Could this 'primary', this desired Essence, still exist? Of course, it could not exist in the newly created scene of Time, Place and Substance with its image functioning as God of Creation. The deal of the transference is that only one remain. Only One can exist. The desired primary Essence must be dealt with...must be destroyed. A entirely new scene would result, for God is One. Only one God can remain. Creation can not deal with Reality so has removed Reality by erecting its walls of earth and galaxy, blocking any possible view of Reality. How could reality be seen if so desired? .......through religion?........through science?

Post #174 "Searching for Answers"

Is it possible to find answers to life's ultimate questions inside the confining walls of religion and science? Do religion and science hold, each within its own walls, the very essence of life...the very essence of existence? Can religion claim ultimate and exclusive truth? Can science claim ultimate and exclusive Truth? Since neither system claims reliance on the other or even a sincere cooperative effort or collaboration between each other, one could assume that each system has determined and claimed its own 'ultimateness' and exclusiveness, again proving the controversy is not reconcilable.

Can Reason be a determinate to the faculty of faith? Can Faith occur on a one party basis or does it take a giver and a receiver? Is Faith the acceptance, the unquestioned acceptance, of an other's experience or at least, opinion? Can Faith result in one's own personal and uninfluenced experience? Is Faith ever able to be tested by the search for evidence as in archaeological excavation? And then, does Faith become Reason if tested? Is Faith the result of imposed power over unsuspecting victims? Is Faith the victim of Reason? Is Faith dictated by the power of Reason, as in "you must believe and believe in, what I tell you or you are guilty of sin"? Does Reason seek a victim and threaten the victim to uphold dictates saying it must believe and abide under penalty of sin that which Reason has determined to suit its own use and need? Is Faith the result of threats for the sake of accumulating power over a victim? Does Reason, control in the long run-Faith? Is Faith blind? Does Faith accept and believe in that which Reason imposes or does Faith react to that which Reason imposes? Is Faith imposed under penalty of sin if not accepted and abided by? Is Faith the captive of Reason under duress? Is Intelligence free to accept the true data that is present to it? Can and does faith react or does faith rely solely on its own facts established through first party revelation? What of second and third party revelation?What about revelation that is based on the written word that has been written and rewritten, altered and transposed? Does Reason control that which is beneficial or that which is destructive or both?Does the power of reason build walls? Is Intelligence limited, imprisoned, or freed by Faith? Is Intelligence limited, imprisoned, or freed by Reason?

Does religious Faith control that which is beneficial or that which is destructive? Does the power of Faith build walls? Does Reason precede Faith? Does Reason provide the power tool that convinces, persuades, and effects Faith? is Faith the result of displays of power that effect and impress, persuade, and in many cases, threaten? Is Faith freely offered and freely accepted? Is Faith questionable or is faith infallible? Is not 'questioning' that which determines just what is Faith from what is Reason? What of trust? Does Reason allow for trust? Is it possible to have a Faith that is based on trust and not control? Where do we go for the answers to life's ultimate questions?

Post #173 "Behind Walls"

Just what is the purpose and function of walls? What is the basic intention behind building walls? Do walls keep in or do walls keep out? What about the walls of religion and science? What are the walls that determine the parameters of religion and science? What are the walls that determine religion and science's ethics and moral codes? What are those walls that confine by 'keeping in' and confine by'"keeping out' of religion and science? Are there other walls, besides the walls of religion and science that slice off what lies beyond their own parameters....those 'other' walls that keep in and keep out? Is it possible that in all situations of life on earth, humans build walls? Do these walls that define marked off areas fit into one of these two categories of religion and science or is it possible there may be a third or even a fourth category?

Is wall building an inherent , trickle-down characteristic, then, of humanity,  as division is an inherent faculty of creation, division in both cases bringing about Time, place, and Matter? Can we assume that Time, Place, and Matter are the basic foundation walls of creation built by humanity, and as well through the collective consciousness? What about those walls , constructed through the limitations of Time, located through the limitations of Place, and hidden and smothered through the limitations of Matter...those walls behind which each concept of division seeks its own existence? Is it possible that the walls of creation are the walls of the human intellect, those walls of unquestioning Faith and the walls of empowering Reason?

Does religion need and promote these walls? Does religion need the parameters of Time, Place, and Matter? Does science need and promote these walls? Does science need the parameters of Time, place, and Matter? Are these walls beneficial or destructive to creation, particularly to humanity and to the planet that keeps and sustains life as we know it? Is humanity, and what the human intellect has created, beneficial or destructive to its own purpose and determination?

Post #172 "Knowledge beyond Faith and Reason"

This writing, then, is a search for truth. It is a search for Reality. It is a search for Knowledge. It is a search to know non-reality or created reality from Reality. It is a search to understand the reality of non-reality....the theory of 'nothingness'. This writing is an unfolding of a new perspective of the search for Reality that has thus far evaded physics and science which are unable to answer the question of  'what is real?' This writing also suggests that the search for Reality has also evaded religion. Religion, however, is not able, as is science to admit that it is also unable to answer the question of what is Real. Religion is not able, as is science, to admit or even comprehend that it does not have the answer to what is Real. But religion has used Reason to devise answers to the question, and then run their own answers through The Law and called it Faith. Since religion and science seem to be the components of the struggle of creation with Reality, this analysis has considered each proposition. This analysis, then, aims to bring about the realization of the limitations and fragility of the arguments of each side. The intention, then, to become more inclusive, is to move through these arguments, not to move around them or to ignore them as the search for truth mandates a willingness and effort to be aware of the arguments of each side of the controversy. If the arguments of either side were convincing there would be no sides and no controversy. The very fact that a controversy exists proves that the search for Truth is far from over. The continuation and even the acceleration of the controversy proves that neither religion nor science has provided satisfactory or acceptable answers. This writing, then, is a search for the Knowledge of truth beyond Faith and beyond Reason. It is a search for True Knowledge, the Knowledge that lies beyond creation. Only through True Knowledge can Reality be determined from non-reality.

What is the possibility of finding Knowledge beyond the Faith knowledge of religion and the Rational knowledge of science? What of a knowledge that would be accessible only through Choice?What of a Knowledge that would lie outside of self and need to be accessed through the outside rather than through the inside of self? Is it possible to access a knowledge of truth, stark Truth, unblemished truth, that lies outside the realms of religion and science....beyond the walls of creation?This truth by its very nature could not lie within these confining boundaries, nor within the confining boundaries of self. Is there a means of discovering Knowledge beyond the Faith Knowledge of religion and science's Knowledge through Reason? This Knowledge must be reborn if it ever existed. Can it be rediscovered again from beyond the walls that have been built and hidden behind throughout history, for Truth lies at bedrock? Each level, each layer, each generation, has further destroyed and buried all the Truth that went before until no sense or idea remains of what is really Truth.

The search for truth is personal and must spring from strong desire. The search is not easy. Truth must be desired, and then sought after, and pursued relentlessly. The search for Truth demands commitment. The search for Truth is not easily accessible for it lies well beyond and outside the confines of either religion or science. Moving beyond and outside science is admitting to and allowing the recognition of the possibility that there may be other levels of consciousness and awareness beneath the surface level of present everyday life and existence. Do other forms of Knowledge exist in other dimensions?

Moving beyond religion and science is allowing the recognition of the possibility that there may be deeper, much deeper levels of Knowledge beyond the Knowledge of Faith and beyond the Knowledge of Reason. This Knowledge would be, in a sense, beyond human power structures. This Knowledge would be best described as Awareness. It is an Awareness rather than anything gained through intentional an determined human thought processes, systems, actions, processes, or formulas. Religion and science are basically human actions, determinations, or human endeavors, based on process, formula, or planned actions by power seekers, and power structures. Indeed, religion and science are confined and confining, each comfortable in its own Knowledge and, consequently, each immersed in its own belief system, each within its own walls of its own creation.

Post #171 "Beneath Surface Truth"

This writing is about a third proposition, an alternative to the established belief and power systems of Tradition and to the developing systems of science and technology built on Reason. This path of a third proposition, will lead deeper and deeper beneath the surface levels of daily life, for Truth is not found there, but at bedrock, where all the debris of millenniums has not yet accumulated or in the case of 'future determining past', where all debris has been removed, and can thereby, no longer be available to be hidden behind. Truth is hidden. Daily life and present values exist in what appears or seems to be truth, but this truth is only on the surface of existence. This truth is surface truth. Surface truth is not Truth in Reality. Surface truth is true on its own level of existence, but this truth fades out, becomes nebulous, is not reliable once the level beneath is discovered, for the lower the level, the closer one arrives at Reality Truth. Surface truth becomes less true when the level below it is exposed until it is obvious there is no truth at all to be found at surface level. Surface truth is only true to and within itself, but not to Reality. So there is the truth of non-reality to non-reality, as in the image of reality being creation and the Truth of Reality found outside or beyond creation, as in pre-creation. The surface truth at the layer of our world today rules and determines the life-styles chosen by 21st century Intellect. Daily life and present values exist in what appears or seems to be truth, but this truth is only on the surface of existence. This is surface truth. Surface truth denies and suppresses these first-cause Truths and does not attempt to answer the fundamental questions that lie buried in human hearts

This concept, this third proposition, is not in any way another attempt of the continuation of the many attempts to reconcile this controversy between religion and science that has been raging since the 16th century. Actually, the roots of the controversy extend many centuries before the Age of Enlightenment into ancient nomadic life styles, or what could be referred to as a situation of uncivilized life versus civilization. From these roots the movement extends back and beyond, moving from future to past to the very heart of the controversy,and indeed, to the very roots of who humanity has become. Its all about non-reality versus Reality.

Although many attempts have been made, the controversy between religion and science is not reconcilable, indeed, the uncompromising struggle includes the struggle for moral authority. There is basic disagreement even in defining good and evil The search for understanding and knowledge of these basic issues, as noted above, must go deeper...much deeper, into the past, into the present, and down into the future for the future can be found at bedrock, where it all began. This presentation will often refer to going back to the future as it will be reasoned that the future has created the past...the outcome has determined  the beginning. The method of presentation is an unfolding. Points will be presented and have been presented and, then, allowed to unfold in succeeding posts until all eventually comes together. Perspectives, opinions, and conclusions  can then be drawn of the total writing, if so desired and chosen. This is a search. This is a search for Reality. So far this search has determined the existence of non-reality and so, the search for Reality must include the existence of non-reality for one does not exist without the other. We must understand 'nothingness'. So this search mandates the willingness to dig down to bedrock, beneath the fear of confronting what may be exposed. All preconceived notions, and ideas must be set aside to be able to grasp this concept. Many mountains of untruths must be revealed and removed as truth does not lie at the surface of our daily lives in the present day world where most living takes place.

Post #170 "Seeking Purpose"

Of course, the question of what is the purpose of human life has been asked thoughout history. Has there ever been a satisfactory answer? Has not religion been looked to to provide the answer? It is true that many do look to religion for the answer, however, it seems that as time moves on, fewer and fewer people accept that religion has the answer. Would not the most popular answer be that most people seek happiness? But what do most people do to attain happiness; is it not to accomplish this goal through the pursuit of perfection? Is not perfection that which is most coveted, and worshipped? Is not perfection that which determines our heroes and brings forth from our very depths-worship? And, are not our gods determined by that which we worship?

Let's probe deeper. What is the root of our longings? What does the desire to become God come down to? Is not Fear at the basis of our identity? Going back to the mythological stories of Archangel Lucifer and Adam and Eve....what was their immediate reaction to what resulted from their choice to become God? It did'nt work out. The result was far from what they dreamed of, desired, and Chose. But we can see, can't we?.. that what was desired-to become God, was utterly an impossible hope. Somehow in the process, Intelligence realized or should have realized that something went wrong. The wished for transference did not take place, better yet, what happened was not at all what was planned. Strangly, the desire has not been eradicated but seems to have been genetically implanted and entrenched in consciousness. The Choice was and is the choice of all consciousness. That makes sense, of course, as consciousness is, as consciousness in Collective Consciousness. Some religions recognize this condition as the Original Sin. Surely this primal fear stirred the primal waters of pre-creation into a churning chaos. Creation accured as the result of fear of not becoming God, or not becoming Reality. How could there not be chaos? Was not the idea of god, gods or God born of this fear. Intelligence faced the threat of non-existence or non-reality. 

Post #169 "The Power of Knowledge"

Science, as religion, has also attempted to answer these fundamental questions of existence but readily admits there is still much that is unknown. Science has, however, answered enough questions to foster belief in its ability to eventually answer all questions. Consequently, science challenges religion's answers with its own answers to the basic questions of life. Science's answers are based, of course, on its own observations, interpretations, mathematical formulas, and outright, on its own speculation. Each concept, religion through Faith, and science through Reason, attempts to achieve ultimate power through determining the answers to creation's ultimate questions. Knowledge is possession. Knowledge is ownership. As previously noted, science, through rational knowledge, seeks to gain possession of creation, which basically, comes down to knowledge and the determination of life and its consequence---death. Science, confident in its knowledge and ability, is finally able to challenge religion's grasp of the source of ultimate power, but just what 'ultimate power' does science claim for its authority and credibility? If faith in the God of Creation is religion's source of ultimate power, what or who is science's source of ultimate power?

Science has created a world that is a scientific or mechanical world. The world has been transformed by science. Science is apparent in every aspect of life on earth. Every generation has become more and more dependant on science. Science has so changed the world that if its effect were removed, the world could not return to the more primitive ways of survival of preceding generations. Modern man simply could not cope or survive in the world of a few generations ago. Science has created but science has also destroyed

Science has indeed created the civilized world. Through humanity's power to reason, civilization rose from the wilderness. Civilization is a process that accelerates with humanity's power to Reason, but by what process? Here is creation's formula: dissatisfaction to desire, desire to dream, dream to image, image to creation, creation to dissatisfaction, dissatisfaction to death.

Is science's source of ultimate power really reason, the rational, the thinking power of fickle humanity? Religion's God of Creation is, obviously, all about creating, but science seems to also focus on creating. Science's method is, firstly, trying to understand what things are made of. Then from there, proceeds to determine where to fit into the grand scheme of things. In other words, science through trying to discover the secrets of creation, seeks and determines to control creation. Yes, science's ultimate power is Reason. Science depends on Reason to gain control over creation which includes power over life and death. So the big question finally comes down to ...does religion or does science have the most power and control over life and death, over what exists and what does not exist. Which system is in control and has power over creation? Which system possess creation and beyond creation to that which has not yet been created?
