We might be insignificant in our physical manifestation, yet each of us is the center point of our view of the entire cosmos and there is no such thing as an omnipresent, omniscient point of view otherwise. As I keep pointing out, a spiritual absolute would be the essence from which we rise, not an ideal from which we fell.

Hopefully we continue to keep rising.

Though that occasionally requires breaking down some of our previous foundations, as they prove flawed. We can only built out, if we also build a solid enough foundation on which to build up.

I'm seeing humanity as the emerging central nervous system to a global organism. Keeping in mind the function of the central nervous system is to sustain the entire body, not just lose itself in its own addictions and compulsions, becoming merely a cancer on that larger body.
