God's Identity Crisis

My post on economics is turning out to be a rather cumbersome write, but I have something to hold you over:

Religion describes God as infinite and everything, yet unitary. This is a logical paradox, of course, since a self-contained individual cannot simultaneously contain everything. But does that mean that God does not exist at all? Perhaps, but I venture to say that paradoxes are a different kind of smoking gun.

Joseph Campbell once wrote, "Where we had thought to travel outward, we shall arrive at the center of our own existence," which not coincidentally reminds me of Helen Keller when she said "The only way out is through." See, it's not that God doesn't exist, it's that He has an identity crisis embodied in the corruption of language and linear thinking.

Obviously, it doesn't do you any good to try to sense with senses that not longer exist to you just because other people are trying to use them, but more importantly, your other senses have become sharper anyway. Helen Keller discovered that each of her senses were created equally when she embraced the ones that still functioned and realized that she could sense just as well or better than anyone around her. In the same way, religion and its use of speech to convey the speechless have failed where once they may have succeeded.

If I were to promote a new spiritual sense for the religious to explore, I would have to remind them that the present moment, when one meditates, is both infinite and infinitesimal in duration. Sound familiar?
