we live in chaos
In a six dimention world which we reconcile by seeing two dimentionally upside down. The brain from infancy gets this input and is trained to "weed out" non important visual criteria. We learn to walk by falling down.
We learn that certain rituals can assist us in navigating this very strange plane of existance. These rituals can be as simple as lighting up a cigarette before starting an automobile or as complex as shuting ones eyes before ejaculation.
Most of our waking life is spent doing things that we have learned over our lives is an acceptable manner. We eat fornicate sleep watch tv read or go online in a way that makes us feel comfortable and safe.
This is what "rationalization" has tought us about our environment. Most people dont understand that. We actually live in a strenuous dangerous world that constantly challenges us to survive. We live by rote. We survive because the subconcience has made the proper adjustments to get the corporal body through another day. The concience body relies upon these OBD reactions to allow us to think outide of survival. However the stress related to this constant balancing act causes the subconcience to freak.
This is what the basis of mental illness is. The undermind tired of "saving the day" 24X7 freaks and either enters self looping patterns {addictive behavior} or gives up (schizophrenia where all auditory and visual stimulus is no longered filtered by the under mind).
Adding to this is chemical imbalances that disrupt the normalization of the undermind and the concience is constantly being presented with either two much info or not enough. This is bi-polar disorder.
The actual best frame of mind is where the over and under mind is absolutely in tune, One takes presented info and does only what is best for the organism. This however is man's greatest monster a sociopath. Looks like the gentle neighbor but is totally absorbed toward self preservation and self gratification.
Some of our best leaders have been classic sociopaths, some of mankind's greatest enemies have the same affliction.
In short we are biologically fucked and psychologically fucked.
Religion is trying to enforce rules about the tremendous data inputs around the physical being. They may be valid rulesets, I didnt design the biology so am unfit to declare one right others wrong except by dialectic parsing and beleiving in the realestate deal.
hope that helps
thanx,
