We won't gain Godhood by blocking material evolution


More on the error of opposites:

"Divine" truth and human ignorance are not opposites any more than the "spiritual" is opposite the material. Both sides are on a continuum of material life evolving in nature from the material to the supermaterial.

Why the insistence on separation and opposites by religious mystics? Is it their way of competing in the material world to hobble the material world? Nietzsche thought so. We don't need to reject God as Nietzsche did, we just have to correctly define Godhood.

What the mystics are doing is blocking the very thing they claim to love most: Godhood. We won't gain Godhood by blocking material evolution.

It is not the quality of thinking that determines mans status in the cosmos, it is the level of evolution of his whole material body and mind. We transcend not by transcending flesh and mind (which is not really what mystics are doing even if they think they are) we transcend by way of material evolution---slower but true.

Joining religion and science could speed things up.
