Be honest with yourself and acknoweledge that It all boils down to you pointing to a guy or a group of people who you believe to be credible because they are smarter than you, and what they think. And for them what they think is based on what someone smarter than them thinks, and so on goes the daisy chain.

I don't know, I'm pretty arrogant. I somehow don't believe that I'm smarter than myself.

After all, I am the Potential.

Quote:Bottom line what you believe about which ever side of orgins you stand on your belief is 'Faith based.' Fore a faith in 'facts' (A statement that can be proven or disprooved) is still faith.

True. Everything I see in this world (and believe in) is based on my faith that it's real. Justifications only serve to bridge to a point, but one must jump, however difficult it may or may not be for them, for ne'er shall the bridge meet the other side alone.

Quote:That being the case what makes your faith any more important than anyone elses? Just because you point at the ground then to a book to decipher what it is you think you see in the ground, does not make you any less dependant on faith, than a man who points to God then the bible to discern his version of Orgins.

Well, it's mine, and I'm important to me, so.... I judge my beliefs to be most important to me. I'm human, what do you expect?

Indeed, for both of them are fools. One is a religious nutter who claims The Dream is all an invention of some willful being, and the other a nutter who ACTUALLY BELIEVES IN THE DREAM! MADNESS!!!! ROFLOL

Quote:Why shouldn't both accounts be taught side by side, not as an excersize of which is right and which is wrong, but as what some believe verses what others believe. I truly think most of us will be shocked that neither strict interpertation of said events is correct.

For the same reason that no belief should ever be 'taught'... allow people to learn... if they want to. They can learn everything in their own time... they don't need you, either of you. There's more to life than 'education' and 'indoctrination'...

Odd, isn't it? How hilariously wrong everything all is... how utterly absurd this world is. One might consider that it's all for someone's benefit, for their entertainment... but it's only a facet of the intense confusion that makes up The Dream.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
