In trying to re-bond with my computer, now named "HAL", as on, "Open the pod bay doors HAL". I have forced myself to return to my blog as I have many issues that I must discuss, chief among them is TRUST. Is TRUST about doubt or skepticism? If we don't trust someone or something does that mean we have doubts about that person or thing or does it just mean we are skeptical. I know this: doubt hurts, skepticism doesn't. What is the difference? One thing for sure is that Doubt cannot be removed by rational thought, skepticism can. Isn't skepticism the basis of science. Can we stop doubting?

One either believes in God or doesn't. Doubts or doesn't doubt. Clearly we can't use rational thought to know for sure. There is too much Chaos that separates us from knowing that truth. I think about it because I want to hedge my bets. Better to embrace the God Head than to and burn in a horrid endless hell. Actually, I don't believe in hell but am reminded of a great line from Marlow's " FAUST". Faust asks Mesostopheles, " If you are the devil what are you doing here? How can you leave Hell". Mesostophles replies, "This is Hell and I am here". Is there any doubt that we experience daily our heaven and hell? We recreate our paradise, or at least try to, and then Doubt enters and we go to our own Hell.



Please discuss if any of you are out there still. I can't blame you if you doubted my return. Special thanks here to my family and Geode who kept bugging me to return.
