Steve, it would appear that you are plunging fast into the deepest rabbit-hole!
I think maybe I can simplify at least the last part of your post, the sphere of thought related to the existence of God, a sphere around which you can find many interesting verbal duels by eminent philosophers
😂
One can only hope
Hope springs eternal!
There are so many spheres of thought that you’ve shown me here, Brother Mccoy that I followed your example and found this rabbit 🕳️ hole where you appeared to lead me. Now I know how Hamlet felt. But hope gives me pause to peep outside the rabbit hole for only a momentary glimpse around to see my soul shadow and then return to inner sanctum.
