Finally she replies, "The best question is the one you just asked; and the correct answer is the one I gave."

Ironically, what made religion was arguably language... maybe that is why you have never seen God.
That and ofcourse the fact that ancient civilisations had a different interpretation of what they saw to what we would have today. People might not see God as much any more, but they certainly claim to see aliens... imagination and interpretation are strongly influenced by scientific knowledge and inderstanding. |

I think you're alluding to a bicameral (ancient pre-conscious) mind? |

Well actually I was just meaning that how the mind interprets what it sees is based on what it knows. Before they knew what meteorites were, for example, they thought they were Zeus's fireballs, or whatever.
Although, that's a very interesting link, cheers Pong. |

It`s coz there was no video or anything to prove their case but their own word for it...
People todays think twice before they make statements with a supernatural core because they know that the true nature of their words will be tested.

Jeff1244, never talk like that ever, ever again. If you agree to that and rephrase your question, bad English impaired people such as MarnixR and myself will be glad to answer your question.

Simpler surely, to merely ignore the incoherent? |

I think he intentionally did that to screw with us; if he were to rephrase it, it could be a good question.
