What Would It Take?
#5
RE: What Would It Take?
It's tricky, isn't it?

The problem is that whatever amazing events may occur, people are automatically going to attribute them to the mythology they've been brainwashed with. But there's no way to distinguish which godly force was involved, if any.

PS: something just happened which I thought was sort of relevant. I got up and went downstairs. I looked into my garden, and I saw my black rabbit sitting patiently by the door of his run waiting to be let out onto the garden. But then I also saw my black rabbit at the other end of his run, moving about. How could this be? I looked back to where I saw him sitting still by the door. He wasn't there, it was some shadows that looked a bit like him.

It's interesting how within less than a second I'd already decided there was not only a rabbit there, but a very specific rabbit, with a specific intent. Had I looked away more quickly after this, I could have come away with that incorrect conclusion and would have been happy to tell people all about that experience.
