Bingo, El Blanko! I certainly meant no offense. The reason I have no faith is just what you mentioned, I rationalize everything. I'm still open to the idea of a creator, I just dwell in a world of material fact. I'm not sure if this is the right path, but it's the one I'm on right now. The male and female idea did point me to contemplating a creative force, but I'm not ready to make any statements. I only wanted this thread to get "long and feisty" for selfish reasons, so that I could gather many points of view. I certainly do not think my viewpoint to be superior to anyone else's. Maybe one day I'll have something in which to believe.
I am at the same place more or less, but heading slowly back out of my purely objective phase of this reality. I am slowly edging back towards being a mystic at heart, in that I learn the deeper truths through my innate intuition which has always dealt with me kindly.
The fact is, we cannot, any of us, rationalize every aspect of this life we share, so I ask myself why I endlessly tried to.
The intuitive part of my nature I have learnt to limit through others and now am learning to expand.
I will never fall in line with the traditional contemporary man of science and share the vision of this life that he asserts to us through the standing empires. Never. I have no interest engaging in the language of his world of knowledge, for it is only language that attempts to firm the vision portrayed and confound the so-called uninformed amongst us. It was not always this way.
In my opinion, you have no need to attempt to rationalize the deeper truths that you search for. Search with your heart.
