"this is a HUGE topic in physics"

No. It is a huge topic in pseudo-science--just as the "holographic universe" is.

"Maybe there are just sheep and wolves... isn't that OK?"

That is a stupid comment. What do you intend by it??

"You know, I"ve noted it before, but all your talk about 'evil' and 'evil leaders', 'gutless sheep', and the like is really earily like all you claim to detest in religion."

Why do you put "evil leaders" and "gutless sheep" in quotes as though you were quoting me?? But yes--I do detest evil leaders. How about you? Do you consider it foolish of me to detest evil leaders?

"you somehow leave thinking you know all about it and I"m clueless"

Your lack of education is as transparent as all Hell. You cannot spell even simple words and you find it next to impossible to string kindergarten words from your limited vocabulary into a coherent sentence. So yes--I do think you are clueless.

"remember that the experience of the mystic is that the substrate of the universe IS consciousness & not separate from the observer...................."

That is garbage. There are "mystics" in all the major (and the minor) religions. They all differ as to the nature of God and consciousness. Some "mystics" (particularly those leaning toward patriarchy) preach transcending the material world for "heaven". Others (particularly those early and modern "Goddess" religions) preach embracing the earth and the life of nature here and now.

Just looking at Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism (in a plethora of variants), Hinduism (likewise), Taoism, and all the "pagan" paths...one is confronted with a diversity that is staggering and immense. Which is why I asked you to detail your personal point of view on "The One". You have been unable to respond in other than gibberish and teenage cockiness. When you first came to the thread with the boorish statement "ALL the mystics"...I knew the feeble mentality I was confronting...
