Of course I disagree...and you know why. You only THINK you have choices. The continuum shows differently. Science stands with me on this. If you truly believe that you have freedom of choice in a cause- and-effect universe, you're allowing yourself to be duped. Please, don't take that personally, as you know I would say it to anyone who said such a thing. Our children understand what we instruct them. I was instructed by some teachers and my father, who knew that there was a catch involved in Special Relativity. Children will remain children until they grow up and face the facts. The truth of the space-time continuum has nothing whatsoever to do with what I wish it to be. All my wishes are but events in it. And I truly wish that people would face the facts and understand just this one aspect of reality; for, if they did, they'd be a million steps closer to the One. If I get upset because my father tells me to mow the lawn, that's just not anything to get upset about. To do so would be childish. It's a FAR different thing to take someone's life. The balance, in that case, is left to God. And, personally, I believe that, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. That would mean that, in the case of murder, the person who murders gives up their afterlife (or, rather, exists in a state wherein they would rather not). But, of course, there's a greater scope in that, if a 'murder' occurs, then it had to be the will of the One--and who can fight that? We are agents of the Lord and do His bidding whether or NOT we realise that. The space- time continuum is a permanent record of all things that are done (down to the quantum level!) and it is by means of that permanent record that our hands will testify against us (or for us, if and when we do good). Apologies, once again, to Ian, for didactics. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups ""Minds Eye"" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
