Is selling children any worse than bringing democracy by gunpoint? Are the religious craving for immortality than for love? If all that is cognitive: learned and, all that is physical: a response to stimuli; will purity come from learning to respond or responding based on learning? And now that I have been learning and responding for many years, how long will it take for my perceptions and awareness to die into love? Will I survive the purging of love, or will my freedom, the knowledge of what is good and evil forever cause me to see myself as much as a creator as I am a creation?
