Human Beings being Nature

To All God's Children,


-->Read the old testament if you can find a place that promises immortality or eternal life come tell me. It’s just the New Testament apparently according to Spinoza. It’s such a tease living in existence as such conscious matter that we are aware of ourselves and our wants and desires. Nature is mocking us because it has provided us with such a profound understanding of life, and yet given us no way to sustain our own life forever to enjoy it. The fact that we are aware of our deaths as so many other creatures with “living monads” is the most frightening reality one can face. And we have to face it alone.
The more I think about people the more I wonder if we are in fact soulless. Essentially, if we don’t have souls then we are living, breathing matter that slowly deteriorates and ceases functioning until we break down and become other pieces of matter; in other words, the circle of life. Like in “The Lion King” the antelopes eat the grass, the lions eat the antelope and both the lions and antelope become fertilizer for the growth of new grass. Where does the soul come into play in that eternal circle? Someone with Alzheimer’s if they lose their personality, they lose it because parts of their being is destroyed. If the body were just a shell and the soul resided within, any damage to the body itself would not affect the capability of the soul. Then again you could argue that the spirit lives within the body on a different realm or dimension – but it’s impossible to test with out current scientific instruments. That is things that aren’t considered pseudo-science.

Nothing that isn’t meant to exist will be. Humans were meant to live in just the way we are. No matter what anyone says people are apart of nature. There’s no distinction between “natural” and “manmade”. Just because humans have touched the matter to mold it into something else, doesn’t mean that it is any less a part of nature. We’re all nature in motion with abilities to perceive and manipulate it better than any other life form – at least on this planet. Think about it clairvoyants may not be real, but a physicist is. Compared to the talents of, for example, medieval alchemist, a modern day physicist might as well be a magician.

Peace be with you
