THE IMPORTANCE OF EVIDENCE, WHY POSSIBILITIES DON'T MATTER AND PROBABILITIES DO!
We can realise and believe things subconsciously. That is, the beliefs and
perceptions are forgotten but they are still there in the recesses of the mind.
The subconscious mind can realise the implications of things that are not
consciously realised so it knows that certain opinions and beliefs you have,
like in God or in self-sacrifice, are evil and hostile to logic and reason that
will fill you with evil and manipulative tendencies. The salvation of humanity
is the growth and development of the rational nature and to draw the emotions
into rational expression. The evil of fear is caused by irrational thinking and
ignorance and fear is the father of lies and the father of evil. Evil is
non-intelligence. Intelligence in the key truths will elevate woman and man from
humanity to godhood.
Belief is thinking that something is likely to be true. You should not however
be saying what you believe is true, that’s arrogance, but that it is likely to
be true as you see it. There is no belief without evidence only feeling that it
is true which is a different thing. The more evidence you gather in relation to
important matters the better it is for then the more it is you respect yourself
for error can do harm and you are trying to be as safe as possible for it is
better to suffer for truth than for errors or lies. Error has to be exposed for
it always wastes time and energy. It often does worse than that. To leave error
alone means that it’s problems and the pain of dealing with it are being relayed
to somebody else and that is totally unfair. People will not be fooled forever
but if you do not expose error you are increasing the harm it will do for
through your silence more people will be sucked in.
Minds are for protecting ourselves by learning what is factual and how to think
properly and to shield ourselves from our unruly feelings.
If we say we believe anything important and don’t have good enough evidence for
it or perhaps no evidence at all then we are wounding our intelligence and
therefore our whole selves for the surer we are the better. We are saying that
we should live as if it were true. But it is pure self-abuse to bleed and cry
about something you have insufficient evidence for or anything you have evidence
for which you have not validated or checked yet. A truth cannot really be
important to you if you have little evidence for it. The more agreement among
people who know how to think the better. Division is a terrible thing but only
truth can fix it and keep it fixed. Listen to others and they will have to
listen to you and the person who does not want to hear the truth does not want
to let you feel you are doing something for yourself and your own dignity and
that is a most serious insult. The only time we should let others think for us
is in an emergency when there is no time to do it ourselves.
