It's so fascinating to see someone deeply nested in delusion also present their experience so eloquently. Thanks for the interview Lex,(reply>), @matt sutherland When a person chooses to become Muslim they choose so because it is rational and likely, so it's interesting that you use that term. The religion constantly refers to faith in it as "belief in the Unseen", meaning that God and things like angels are not observable or measurable. But it asks those to consider every single possibility and to consider what is most likely. The Quran makes references to things like our biosphere, our atmosphere (and how our atmosphere protects us), the land beneath us and tectonic plates, our formation inside our wombs, our biology, our planet and immediate solar system, and our behaviours and psychology and to take all of this into account when we look to see what is most likely. Because again, God is not observable or measurable, which would fall under the category of scientific evidence. The religion asks you and challenges you to think about it rationally. Because there really isn't other basis. If everyone could see God then there wouldn't be much of a test, according to the faith.<br><br>So I found your wording to be pretty interesting especially when contrasted to this very specific religion.,(reply>), @Toasty toast Choosing something preferable over what is likely. I'm not attacking him for it. Given the environment he grew up in, it was probably unavoidable. From Lex's intro it sounds like he is doing things to help others, so good for him. His path isn't observing/understanding reality, but the outcome is good.,(reply>), This life itself is a delusion..so you might wanna rethink that,(reply>), Can you explain the delusion?,(reply>), You could be describing yourself
