In a world where there are both mountains and volcanoes, we tend to look at volcanoes and think “Ah, a mountain with the top missing” rather than “Ah, a volcano with some extra stuff.”
I respect you, Mr. Elias. Your sincerity and adamance are admirable, but the proselytizing is distasteful. I had consistently enjoyed your thoughtful insights previously. Hopefully you can return to less polarizing subject matter at some point in the future. Apologies for the comment. I know it's supposed to be "If you can't say something nice, then don't say nothing at all", but I'm hoping you might appreciate an honest reaction from one of the heathens you are trying to reason with. Cheers.
I appreciate your feedback. I understand that religion reminds people of insecure lunatics shouting about Hell on a street corner, but there's something truly, truly different going on here. Maybe I'm being unskillful about it, and I appreciate your patience while I learn how to avoid rubbing people the wrong way. But when it comes to the subject of Truth-loving, I am not failing to deliver.
What does nondual here mean? In opposition to the dualism of manicheans (spirit is good, flesh is evil)?
