I love the detail and effect on this Ammonite ~ many of these have been uncovered on our south coast (Dorset, UK) where the rocks are crumbly ~ great find and capture Kambiz!

Hmm, I use my brain a lot, and it is already a proven fact that any "spiritual" activity is just a projection of simple plain brain activity on our consiousness - which itself is a brain activity and nothing more. The romantic view of a spirit that is not coupled to that porridge mass we call brain, is known to be false since years. No brain, no spirit, that's a fact!
But that exactly is the amazing thing, that simple matter structured in a very distinct way is capable to create the consiousness of the "I", that in turn thinks its spirit has to be based on something different than matter. (This is also subject to incompletness theorem, and so on.) This is amazing! And it could be that we can for the first time get a glance of the value of creation, because it can produce such complex phenomena like the spirit, based on simple things. Fascinating!
As about logic, and I mean formal logic and not the ability to "think logical", we also know that it is a human made construction and it leads to contradictions or incompletness in theories but if we deny logic then anything and its negation is valid at the same time. In other words you can prove by rejecting logic that anything is true and false at the same time. This is contradictory but this is not the worst. It is plain boring to know that anything is true and false. In this case I prefer to live in a fantasy world in which searching the truth makes sense.
Unfortunately I can only recognize what *is* and not what my personal gusto dictates.
And the blindfold method is not a proof for anything, since there could be 1000 explanations (theories) that use the same observation (experiment), namely your success doing your chores blidfolded, but don't make use of such unfalsificable concepts like spirits. And you know what it means when a theory doesn't give you any criterion for falsification: It is not a theory then. In that sense I could also come out and say that the number of ants on the earth increases because the vulcans on planet xanasia at the other end of the universe are getting less. You can believe it but you can't prove it and so it remains just a belief and nothing more. A matter of choosing, that is.
It is also very interesting to observe that whenever some "prediction" or similar statement of the spirit-belief is experimentally proven to be wrong, the reaction is to just change some of the properties of that thing called spirit or add new ones that automatically make the statement not provable by that experiment. So some half-educated formulated in the sixties some "electromagnetic" properties of spirit, but then the interested physicists - who are much more open minded than those individuals that "developed" that silly theory - made some experiments that showed that it just can't be that way. Now, instead of accepting their failure those individuals "changed their mind" by simply saying that it was not the electromagnetism that is known to us. (So there is electromagnetism that is known to the chosen few who of course *never* explain what they mean - because they can't.)
So after all, perhaps the most sincere and human behavior would be to say: I don't know! And try, as you say, to proceed, but without doing as if one belongs to some kind of enlightened super human, that was necessarily chosen by some power that one is not even able to describe. Sincerity is the best possibility to accept that we still don't know. And this is the best power that keep us on searching - we will find out!

Thank you Nick for sharing your view with me.
I am an educated, simple, down to earth, very emotional person who try to nibble rather than bite my problems personally, nationally and internationally.
Now, I try to PROCEED. My goal is that light. I try my best to reach it B4 I die! [ ,and I assume that majority of people have the same pattern in their life, although few prefer to be in the darkside, so be it !]
It SEEMS to me you use your brain and logic a lot, and sometimes that element could make lots of mistakes in the world of spirit.
Logic is ONE OF THE TOOLS that our creator gave it to us, and it is NOT the only yard stick for measuring. In another words there are few others around.
I guess the first step, you should RECOGNIZE them, then feel them and then believe on them.
Perhaps by trying to do the following example you could feel the other yard stcks in yourself:
One of the methods that I used to use when I was in the high school was I used to blindfold myself and try to do my regular chores after I wake up the following day.
At first it was extremely difficult, but then I discovered many other elements besides my 'logic', I felt very resourceful.
Try it and be careful of the sharp objects on your way.

Your explanation copied here for convenience:
"If you turn on a flashlight up side down in a dust room, you would see dusts particles everwhere. Majority are outside of the beam of light and few are inside the beam light. Those one which are inside are in different levels. Then you would see each particle tries to proceed to reach to the "source of light".
..... and so are we as a human being try to
P R O C E E D !"
Well, a nice metaphore and I understand the message, thoug from the side of physics completely wrong. But physics is not what is meant here, right?
(Nonetheless it can lead us to perfectly false conclusions if we simply use plain analogies in the style of "this like that". In the whole history of cognition anything proved wrong bthat was based on such simple analogies - perhaps simply because the truth doesn't have any obligation to correspond to such analogies that we made.)
But to the main point, which I think is to just keep on trying and not simply give up, well, I don't give up and I don't even complain. And that for many reasons, one of which is all you wonderful people out there, who in just a few days managed to stand nearer to me than many other people in years.
But I proceed checking and thinking and not just believing. It makes things complicated but I like squeezing the most out of my brain.
Best wishes and keep on sharing views and ideas. This is what we all badly need in these days of fear and hate.
In other words: I wish we could go down the pub and have a nice loooong talk the whole night long!
Cheers to you!

He, he, almost 100% of all people I know agree with the first statement ;-)
In love I am, and it feels like heavens, but still the mind exists and wonders. How can know that this feeling is not perhaps some kind of special state driven by hormones and other chemical combounds that are produced in body?
But then again, perhaps it is the same but with other words? I don't know.
Oh, and don't take me for a materialist! I am only searching for the truth but I always carry in mind that what I find might seem to be the truth to me, but perhaps only because of my imperfect thoughts and understanding.

I agree the first statement.
For second one you have to be in "LOVE" in order to feel it.

No, that was neant ironically, since the word "math" alone" is enough to horrify, where it is the label for a very pure, clear, and above all honest science.
But who/what is the creator, Kambiz? (Not at all a rhetorical question.)

So Annemette you got it!
I do have a PS7 which is very old version but for sure somehow it is useful.
I do not have any knowledge about it, but with playing with it, I learn little bit of it.
I guess I have to go and take a course of it.

A ver Kambiz...no manejo ingles,pero el taductor algo ayuda... me hablas de la diferencia entre los dos fósiles...
A decir verdad de ellos sólo aprecio su aspecto estético, no los estudio, pero así a simple vista veo uno cóncavo y otro convexo.Podrá ser eso lo que me dices?
