We've been cultivating spiritual teachings for thousands of years, and looking for meaning and purpose. You'd think that after ten or twenty thousand years we'd have some of this figured out, that there would be some universally agreed on principles -- but there aren't. Our spiritual quest has got us nowhere, as a species. In fact, religious differences have contributed to a great deal of strife and misery.Can it be that it is up to us human beings to gain the answers by cultivating some of the spiritual teachings, and by that realize the true meaning behind our own existence? I just ask but open to your answer
A dispassionate, scientific approach, on the other hand, has magnified human understanding of nature and our place in it beyond the wildest imagination of our forbears, in just a couple hundred years.
It may not be intuitive, easy to understand, or comforting, it may not augment social bonds, but reason and logic yield objective truths. What we do with them is up to us.
