The moment we try to wield love as our own, for selfish purposes, intents, and ends, to twist situations for self gain and aggrandizement, it becomes a rigid, dead, and impotent thing. 

Being at center is the means by which one acts moral. Said another way, heaven is the means to morality. Morality is not the means to heaven.

Marduk creating the world out of Tiamat's body is the equivalent of the act of masculine spirit condensing energy into feminine matter or, put in more modern Quantum Mechanical terms, an observer (Consciousness) turning waves of light into particles by act of observation. This creates the world. 

At the root of all scientific motivation is the intellect's quest for its origin.

sex is mythological but myth is not sexual

Coming to terms with your Other is to fully reckon with life and death.

Eternity is the place in which Consciousness finds itself totally free because it's finally liberated from the burden of your dead past and the paralysis inflicted by your unknowable future.

We are unfree to the extent that we remove all constraints on ourselves. This is raw freedom, absolutely necessary for existence, yes, but a senseless and painful kind of freedom to live life by.

The Fall from Eden is the moment free will emerges and the future becomes real; real in that it's unknowable, not fated to be a repeat of the past.
