TIMES
I've had enough of someone else's propaganda. I'm for truth, no matter who tells it. I'm for justice, no matter who it's for or against. I'm a human being first and foremost, and as such I am for whoever and whatever benefits humanity as a whole.
A tempest in a teapot. Who cares ? But hey, it's the NYP ...
Surely nanny states are not the way. But hey, here we are: Name a country that does not have this in some form or another.

One thing I noticed is the tendency to consider ourselves mere observers in the process of reconciling mind and matter. Instead, what if we considered ourselves to be a work in progress, and the mind/matter problem to be a symptom of our limitations? What if the organs of perception that we use to grow our understanding of the universe and our function within the macrocosmic and microcosmic worlds, and that we are an ongoing, and largely unfinished project of intelligent design? What if our efforts toward understanding both require and are the result of this developmental process - and that Harrison described how it works with his top-down, bottom-up description of how we can experience ourselves as being part of a larger consciousness? What if the development of our sensory organization depends on being in the presence of sensory stimulation, which in turn creates the possibility for an intelligent organizing principle to work on our development? What if new organs are right now in development that will enable a growing understanding of who we are and what our role/mission is in the macrocosmic whole? In ancient India and Persia, for example, people experienced the spiritual world intimately, but didn't perceive or interact with the physical world anything like we do today. The physical world was considered a trap, as 'maya', something merely to be endured and eventually transcended. Slowly, that changed, until now the reverse is true. Now, we are looking for a new way and a new reason to relate to the intelligence in the universal mind without loosing our hard-won understanding of, and relationship to, physical manifestation, as Corey articulated so well. Is this process accidental, or does this describe a trajectory of development? Are we, at some point, destined to have organs of perception that we don't currently have? If so, will the 'hard problem' of consciousness, and the seemingly irreconcilable dichotomies of mind/matter, religion/science, feeling/thought then dissolve into the illusions that they really are? I think so!
I'd like to add in that we(some of us)as seasoned cultures of the earth can note: our failures and those boring history examinations that led us to this point- the ones that get easily mistaken and covered by natural process and man-made failure to accept reason - in the end we always should be humbled by each other's ability to bring purpose and future goals to the forefront. Amen Selah
Should have said: What if the organs of perception that we use to grow our understanding of the universe and our function within the macrocosmic and microcosmic worlds are still in development, and that we are an ongoing and largely unfinished project of intelligent design?"
