bird brain

.


for me at least...
God is no longer an ancient, wise, bearded, father figure
God is no longer triune
nor only male
nor three dimensional even!

at this point, I don't even know what "God" means
I'm pretty sure our human three dimensional limited sized brains can't comprehend even how to ask the questions, much less how to understand the answers

I just finished a good book: "Alex and Me" by Irene Pepperberg. She is a research scientist who worked for years with a parrot on animal intelligence. There is so so so much we don't know, and we fill in the blanks with assumptions that more often than not turn out to be wrong. Pepperberg has done an admirable job challenging some assumptions, but there is still a lot of work to be done, naturally. In the meantime, the gulf between human brains and bird brains is not quite as wide as we've been led to believe.

I'm guessing the gulf between human brains and "God", whatever that might be, is beyond our understanding.

Cool.
