I'm not sure you are being coherent.

Necessarily some degree of coherence is necessary, or we are mubbling jibberish.

I think what you are trying to say, is not to be pedantic. Which everyone will agree, often even the most pedantic. It is hard not to bring to bear what one knows, to what one is learning.

The question is, how does one keep an open mind and not allow knowledge to be indoctrination.

Possibly it is to keep in mind that our reality is emergent, rather than ordained, even though the same paths are well worn. Understanding that even though it seems like everything has been done, when you are doing it, it's still unique. That is when you can see the same thing from different angles and see what others might have missed.

Consider that a spiritual absolute would necessarily be the essence of sentience, from which we rise, not an ideal of wisdom and judgement, from which we fell.

We are that interface between our bodies and our world and there is much more to both, than our current systems of knowledge are willing to acknowledge, because their function is more about control, than enlightenment.

Thus that father figure lawgiver, even though democracy and republicanism originated in pantheistic societies. Many, not just one.

Is money a social contract, enabling mass societies, or a commodity to mine from them?

The old order isn't just about knowledge, as it is about control and while you can't turn the herd, occasionally you can find an off ramp.

So doen't seek coherence in others, just look for it in yourself and grow it out from there.
