Good question, Meg. How do we help people open their eyes to the reality that there is more to reality than we think there is, that we are all one, and that we must work together to redesign our social, political, economic, and cultural systems (infrastructure and processes) to reflect that greater understanding?

I’m a tolerant sort of guy, as you know, but leaving make-believe behind could well start with religion. That would solve a lot of problems.

Or at least "religion" as it's been practiced in the Western world, including the kind of religious practice that thinks it is the only truth, with no tolerance for other religions and ways of seeing the world.

EXCELLENT Reminder. We just saw “Life of Chuck” <+++> where the timeframe of the universe plays a central role.
