All Roads Lead to God
So what would you think if the next time you had math class, your teacher began by saying:
"Good morning students. Today I want to introduce a new way to do addition, multiplication, subtraction, division, etc. I know that you have always thought that 2 + 2 = 4, 5 - 5 = 0, 3 x 3 = 9, and so on- but I think it is arrogant and rude of us to think that there is only one way to do math. Why can't 2 + 2 = 5 if we really really sincerely believe it?"
I'm thinking that you would be thinking that he pretty much lost his mind - right? After all, there is only one way to do math. 2 + 2 will always equal 4, just like 5 - 5 will always equal 0.
It's called absolutes, because there are some things in this universe that are absolutely true regardless of whether you believe it. If you stand on railroad tracks while a train is speeding your way, you can have all the faith in the world that you'll come out undamaged. However, because of an absolute truth called "train is bigger than you", if you don't move, you're going to end up flatter than a pancake and looking very much like a grease spot.
OK - so we all know that absolutes exist, and if something is true, then the opposite is false, right? If 2 + 2 = 4, it can't equal 5. Those two formulas contradict each other, and it doesn't take a genius to figure out that when things contradict each other, they can't all be right.
Right?
Except when it comes to the most important and critical subject in the universe - your eternal soul....
