> To know something one must be able to see all of it, fairly basic but impossible for us to achieve self contradiction > We need only a working model of reality as we cannot have a functional correct model of reality self contradiction > I have, in a sense just made up my "religion" but it's built on all that which have come before it to be a functional working model of reality, which is all I believe it needs to be. That's all the prophets have ever done - say the truth, as can be heard, in their time and place. Please do not cheat yourself and others, or slander the saints, by saying (a) they made up or wanted to start religions or (b) that you can speak of a truth approaching theirs yet while saying you can't. Buddha didn't say "I'm enlightened but not really". He claimed he actually reached the real thing and there was proof if not for the destruction perpetrated upon him by those who couldn't admit their own issues even to themselves. |
