Enlightenment

Reason to me, is the defining characteristic of being human. Reason is a tool of the enlightened. Not simply the learned who see what others have done and go their way. The enlightened reasoner constantly learns and will never deal in absolutes or mysticism. The reasoner will not belittle, hate, or commit violence. A reasoner is always able to doubt or disbelieve. A reasoner will concede in an argument when they are compelled by logic and truth. Let reason prevail. Let truth triumph.

Our brains are programmed to perceive things as we normally see. We perceive vibrations as matter. We see it, smell it, taste it & feel it. That’s because we live in the third dimension.
If more people are more aware about this fact, then they’ll have a completely different outlook on life. However, people do get introduced to this. They just call it crazy-talk and reject it.
But we do hear vibrations. People just need to listen and accept it.

What reason means to me.

To me, reason is about what’s true. To me, reason is about what’s real. To me, reason is about what it is to be human. To me, reason is about what it means to love. To me, reason is about what it means not to hate. To me, reason is about what it means to be free. To me, reason is about the whole world, coming together, in solidarity, for the common good. To me, reason is the ony way. AATS

“Every atom in your body came from a star that exploded. And, the atoms in your left hand probably came from a different star than your right hand. It really is the most poetic thing I know about physics: You are all stardust. You couldn’t be here if stars hadn’t exploded, because the elements - the carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, iron, all the things that matter for evolution and for life - weren’t created at the beginning of time. They were created in the nuclear furnaces of stars, and the only way for them to get into your body is if those stars were kind enough to explode. So, forget Jesus. The stars died so that you could be here today.”   -Lawrence M. Krauss (2009)

"How is it that hardly any major religion has looked at science and concluded, ‘This is better than we thought! The Universe is much bigger than our prophets said, grander, more subtle, more elegant?’ Instead they say, ‘No, no, no! My god is a little god, and I want him to stay that way.’ A religion old or new, that stressed the magnificence of the universe as revealed by modern science, might be able to draw forth reserves of reverence and awe hardly tapped by the conventional faiths.
Sooner or later, such a religion will emerge."
- Carl Sagan
