James I am amazed at how much i do not know or understand ,,sigh but that is understandable considering as my view are very close to pantheism. (expansion and evolution) ..
I read your link and am not sure how to respond,, me I would walk away from that person.

Happens to me all the time too Allan. I also ran right into pantheism by an offshoot, well my main new discovery was something I haven't read before (which is a nice surprise) called 'neutral monism' that sounded very familiar, as does Taoism, panpsychism, animism and the lot. This eventually (today) lead to something that sounded like a little bit of everyone (recent comments made), mostly a reflective or loose commentary about Animism and Personhood but mostly for 'fun' reading:

The personhood concept is interesting to me, as I haven't had the concept to aid my own experiences, need to reflect on what my mind is doing before becoming attached.

Strangely I was looking up some odd information.. I was looking up something because of a news item and stumbled across pantheism, in reading it. I was amazed the parallel of beliefs.. and the evolution of ideas. Things in the world have to change and if they don't they die.. sometime slow painful deaths.. lol (bad comment deleted)
when some idea disagrees with the RC church is it is a heresy ,, and kill the heretics.. what if in reality they are the heretics ??

Those would be poignant questions. I wonder if meaning isn't
constructed over time. Here in Detroit, there is more going on
focused on invention and imaginative re-birth of a city dying in
many respects. What is dying is the old school ethnocentric
politics and economics finally forced out and replaced by a more
world-centric core organization that is facilitating the death of
the old and the birth of the new simultaneously. Once begun, is
"old" meaning ever gone? Or merely integrated into the new?

I operate with and without being attracted to know meaning.
Most stuff is so bland that I don't care and most people are
interested in things that are boring beyond measure once I
know what they are. Even chimpanzees have experimented with
sex more than humans, though not quite as we might generally
mean the term. I know how to go about such discoveries and am
looking for more meaning in understanding evolution. I've
studied economics to assure myself that my rejection of it is
sound (it's dull). Mostly, I find human meaning derived from
inadequate knowledge based in language hostile to inquiry.
Most human life is clearly meaningless and to do with habit
and a few, often peevish emotions and desires, generally
directly biological or cultural. My questions would be about
invention and imagination that allow new meaning.

People have been searching for meaning in life through the
ages but there is no consensus. To me understanding the
source of life and the realization of the inexorability of
Fate and Destiny is meaning enough. I know that in this
group as well as anywhere else there are different
viewpoints and I am open to them all , and don't mind
criticizing me folks , I like it and am not the least
bothered!
