Do you have a pair of eyes? If you do, then do you wait for some other person to prove their existence to you before you use it?
Study it, if you want to know what makes stuff so swell!
So, nothing about electricity, then.
I'm sure you're all glassy-eyed over how great it is, but you're the one making the claim for wonderful special greatness. As it turns out, that's what every adherent tries to do around here.
Christianity isn't a religion; it's a personal relationship with God!
Islam isn't a religion; it's the universal way of relating to God!
Buddhism isn't a religion; it doesn't have God, only rebirth, a bunch of heavens and hells, and a demoness named Maya!
etc. and so forth and so on.
Dude,
There's no heaven. There's no hell. You just have consciousness and within it, your mind. That is both heaven and hell.
There is no maya.
There is no god. At least no skydaddy. Only you. You know that you exist right? You've got to start from there.
