The Next Great Religion Feedback Truth T ruth is a relative animal. It only applies within specific view frames. Just like Newtonian physics applies within one set on reference frames but Einstein physics is needed to resolve others. Just like a rock is solid and dense at one level of observation but at the molecular, atomic, and sub-atomic levels isn't solid at all but mostly composed of empty space.
People think their particular brand of truth is it .
It's like the old story of the blind men and the elephant but played out with fang and claw. Just because you know a rock is mostly empty space doesn't mean it won't hurt when it falls on your head. This is a non-trivial undertaking, but a critical one. It leads directly to an examination of the belief systems and methods of thought that you have personally evolved and those you inherited from your family and your social and cultural environment. Comprehending beliefs and ways of thinking in terms of the context which created them is central to the question of the meaning of life and the next great religion.
