This message and in particular this statement are evidence that you need some help. But I see no evidence that you are able to tell any real truth in plain and simple terms that would allow one to help you.
I have told you of my very concrete reality, and I defiy all Gods and crush any who stand before me as fallacy, phallic, or snow flakes

I have said elsewhere: At this point, I am an emanationist. As Tillich put it, the Spirit (G-d) is the ground of all being. For me, the mind-brain, which we experience, emenates--that is, flows from G-d the Spirit, which needs the mind-brain so that it can manifest in the three-dimensional world we call reality.
Feel free to add to the above.

Emanation and the 'emanuensis' like the Archangels. Ah, mayhaps there is still too much dogma to really say you are a panentheist.
Could you say the mind-brain evolved and we are close to the worm that the genome proves and just let nature be 'what is' rather than 'g-d'? But there are things in ID that do have merit in my opinion and I too am somewhat open to the spirit (scientific laws of energy) being the shakti in all things and we are able to 'manifest reality' as Bucky Fuller did say.

by nature do you mean t4e natural environment or do you mean nature as in t4e way t4in9s function, as in `4uman nature`?

What is "too much dogma" ? Keeping in mind that the last thing I want to be is 'dogmatic', spell out what you mean, please.

Mikal, I checked the site. My only daughter-in-law was born in Iran. My only three grandchildren are half Persian.
