I just read your creed, Shining One. For all your animus at jgnat, I thought your creed would surely support your venom. Wow! I was surprised! No wonder you didn't want her seeing your religion's creed.

I notice there are no black brothers. Is that why you are called Shining One?

Daunt,
If by "human kind's current understanding about the reality around us" you are referring to the consensus perception of the majority of scientists, I agree. If by humankind you mean "humankind" and not "scientists" then I am afraid you are very mistaken. My view is much more in keeping with the view of humankind than your expressed view is. The consensus view of science on the subject God is only in the majority within its own cloisters, I'm afraid.

Daunt: Why should your preceiving matter outside of your emotions and perspective?
I don't remember ever saying it did matter outside of my emotions and perspective. Except that, my purpose in this discussion forum is to discuss emotions, perspectives, and even the source of these. So, when I discuss my emotions, perspectives, and their source it is a little disconcerting to have people chiming in to the effect that I am deluded or delusional just because they have never experienced what I have experienced and do not share my perspective.
I hope you can understand why that might be the case. I do not ask you to agree with my perspective, I ask that you respect it as honestly arrived at and honorably spoken from. Ultimately whether you choose to respect my perspective is up to you. It is widely divergent from yours, but that doesn't make me better or worse than you. I just disagree with you. I don't think you are delusional.
You mentioned that you read my post and THEN realized what I was writing. That means your initial responses were from a position of...we have a name for that..oh, yes, a position of prejudice. Misplaced it seems. Perhaps you underestimated me, or perhaps you overestimated yourself, or a mix of the two.
As to "belief" in dimensions in addition to 3s·1t, modern theoretical physics wouldn't be getting very far without it. Belief in these dimension are well founded in the mathematics of several specialties within theoretical physics. Check it out, if you don't believe me.

Atlantis,
Your pictures are hosted on your harddrive, the path to the photos exists when you computer tries to load the page but doesn't for us. You might also want to go ahead and edit those graphics OUT of that post since they provide pathing information on your physical harddrive.

What color is a gamma ray? An x-ray?
I said you wouldn't believe the color exists, whether you could detect the existence of the spectrum or not. He would be considered delusional.

TS: you assert the primacy of your belief that it actually exists.
To be fair, I only asserted that I actually perceive it. Everyone else has been insisting that I show proof and I have been saying repeatedly that what they ask is impossible. I offered the analogy, and it is a good one, of a color-blind man. He can see blue, he can see red. He gets the concept of color, but green isn't real to him.
See where the analogy leads you. At one time in human history we humans were much more spiritual and much less materialistic. Suppose we have bred out what used to be there prior to discovery of the Scientific Method (the ultimate in materialism).
Suppose everyone was color-blind to green, but LittleToe could see it. Does green exist? Certainly. Could he prove that to you? Would he be wise to talk openly about what he saw?
No.

tetrapod.sapien: now religious people have evolved further than non-religious people
In terms of evolution, different is not always better. Right?

Daunt: Color science does not exist because a man can not see color? balderdash. When we speak of demonstration we speak of scientific demonstration to regulate reality, not personal perspectives and circumstances.
If everyone was color-blind to the color green, green would still exist. And if I was the only one who could see it, what would science say? That it was a trick of my mind and if I take this pill they could make green go away. And they could, too.
I don't think you saw the end result of my argument, but I also don't think you bothered yourself to consider what I wrote, at all.

Um...heh-heh...Welcome?
Hi Capable Wife!!!
Um, I don't think many here are looking forward to the success of Paperback Bibles. We are more sort of taking this scaling back of production and quality as an exultant sign of the coming end of oppressive rule over mankind that has gone too long unanswered. Take me, for instance. I told my wife we will not be donating anymore money unless and until I get Scriptural proof for their teachings. I don't think it is going to happen, but that is what the Organization claims to do.
