...almost all of it…we really did. First (maybe) there was the Big Bang. Our universe (and maybe others) was born. After billions of years humans evolved on this planet we call Earth. At some point, some members of our species developed the ability to reason. As this ability developed we simply began to “make things up”. We developed labels for the things we encountered. We developed systems for labeling things and communicating information about these things. We called this language. We discovered ways to account for things and we called this math. We pretty much built from there.
Nothing we have created (made up) has changed any essential truth about our universe (or has it). The fundamental building blocks of our “reality” are still the same, no matter how much our labels tend to obscure this reality or how much we try to delude ourselves that we can alter these fundamentals to suit our desires. (or can we) The mission of this conversation, as I see it, is to keep digging,to keep thinking, to keep asking ‘Why?’. Keep cross-referencing the things we think we know, with other things we think we know. Why? So we can test the validity of our knowledge, spark new ideas, leading to new knowledge, leading to new testing and so on… Why? So we can make new things up!
This site is a celebration of thinkers, of doers, of explorers and adventurers. It is a place for those who are not afraid to ask the questions, for those who are not afraid of the answers, for those who are not afraid of the myriad new questions that the answers inevitably bring. It is a place for those who are completely unafraid to live! It is a place for the open-minded and the non-judgmental. It is a place for those who are completely unafraid to fail...in fact...for those who understand that there is really no such thing as failure...only learning.
Join us as we explore the ‘facts’ of our existence and perhaps make life a bit more ‘real’. Maybe we can help some people understand life more clearly, perhaps leading to acceptance of the human condition in this realm. Our goal is to cut through all the man-made labels to reveal the actual essence of the many things and experiences we encounter in this realm. The universe is perfect as it is. It’s the things WE make up that are making us crazy.
