[quote:numewenon:MV8yMjAwNjM4XzM3MjU1MTIyX0Q0NTJBNUM2] [quote:Demon Cat in the Blue Basket:MV8yMjAwNjM4XzM3MjU0ODI4XzgzRUExMDMy] I tend to think of logic as the most prolific box our minds are herded into. That's why we live in a logical world. I would rather live in an illogical world, TBH. [/quote] Like the world of dreams. Here is an interesting thing that I have pondered upon... I have had dreams where logic was not working as it is in waking reality. In these dreams things could be 2 different things but be the same thing. it made sense in the dream. It made sense on the same level that logic makes sense to me in this waking world. I know it is purely my own experience, but I existed as an independent reality; a reality in which logic was different. It did not matter that there was another reality in which logic is like it is in the waking reality.... because there was no observer of this reality or its logic.... just the dream reality. Gah. my brain is having a hard time expressing these concepts as words today... losing my grip on reality or something :( hope someone can translate what i am trying to say lol. [/quote]
Original Message
Logic is what it is-- but we only see it through our brains which are biased. So do we believe in it?
My ultimate faith lies in logic. It also leads me to some very peculiar conclusions about life. They have similarities to aspects of Buddhism and some other concepts "preached" by people who meditate or do psychedelic drugs.
So is my faith in logic basically like a faith in God? Or even a faith directly in God?
Discuss. Please! (no this is not a bible thumping thread but everyone is welcome to say whatever)
