In reply to the discussion: The Spirituality of Bees [View all]BanzaiBonnie
(3,621 posts)65. That humans are also a unity
both as a group and as part of the whole of the cosmos.
Oh my, that makes me think of Carl Sagan's Cosmos series. What a wonderful example of a human who understood that we're all a part of everything. AND he didn't need any sort of dogma to live a good life, full of wonder.
I changed a typo ~ for some reason, on a regular basis, I drop one of the Os in good and write god, as in "god life." Whenever I do that, I find it interesting to say the least. I certainly don't have a belief in any god in any usual sense. To me, god is a three letter word that allows me to communicate something... sometimes.

I was just trying to say your skepticism of me was reasonable. I agree with it.

The idea of "spirit in everything" makes me think of things like "holy places".
