I'll definately check out the book though. I'm reading a lot of atheist based stuff right now and I always like to have a balance.

.

That's what I mean : it's all about striking a balance and not discounting any theory or train of thought, which most scientists sometimes do. They're very rigid in their ways of thinking, you know? That's why I like to read spiritual stuff too because I believe that there's things out there that we're unaware of and it would be silly to place all your bets on one particular way of thinking, which includes dogmatic science or organized religion lol. They all f£ck up.

I'll sum my thoughts up by talking about my rabbit. Is he inferior in mentality to me? Yes.. well maybe. Is he capable of logical or rational thought? No. Is his main priority just to survive? Yes. When he comes jumping beside me looking for hugs and cuddles do I believe that there's more to it than just a need for warmth and that he loves me? Yes, I do. And how do I know this.... I don't, I just feel it, and it's the same with life and spirituality. Some things can't be explained or internalized. Call it intuition, call it stupidity, but it's how I feel, and until it's completely disproven I will continue to do so. I doubt that made any fecking sense lol.
