It seems things are split here on the forum. Those that base their views on rational mathmatical thinking, and those that have a more romantic idea pertaining to reality. I hope the romantic thinkers are on the right track. The other is to drab. It reminds me of the Republicans, and the Democrates. One uses his head the other his heart. People seem to be divided that way.

Originally posted by buckkyI think the approach to God involves not one part of your being but every part. The mind is involved. So is the conscience. The emotions are involved. So is the will.

To love God with our whole heart and strength and mind, as was charged in the OT, involves man's being in a holistic way.

Feelers lead the way, thinkers colour in the spaces.
There is always going to be this dynamic.. and others. The male /female aspect of the universe is always necessary. Too much either way and you have unbalance.
The One becomes two/many then returns to the One again so that it may create the universe.
