Veronica That book is conrtradictory. Its says "Imagination decides everything"; basically saying all things are possible. Then can turn around and say its not possible that there is a god. It makes statements saying that what the authors believe is possible, is the correct explanation of life. Which to me it seems they're just voicing their opinion of philosophical reasoning; just like i did right there. The book is Claiming to know the reasons why we function the way we do. Yet goes against what it said at the beginning; that Imagination decides everything. Saying all things are possible?

The authors were voicing their philosophical reasons; speaking there's a possibility that it does not mean it is true. They were voicing their philosophical opinions. Everyone speaks from expieriance. Not just physical experience, but our senses too, they make statements about budda and god ; refelcting it on how it cannot be true. But that anything is possible and imagination is the most powerful thing to human beings. How is there opinion so sure on the meaning of life as opposed to "gods deciples" ancient philosophy opinions? Or the chinese ancient philisophical reasons? Or any other religions' ethnicities, philosophical opinions ? This opinion in the book is a modern philosophical opinion. Yes, they use ancient quotes, But quotes are pieces of literature, not the whole literature. Bottom line, This is a form of modern philosophy. The only difference between believing in something or not believing in something is that either way(either decision) it is ALL a way of life. Period. Think about it.so its either you look at it all and use negative percpectives to make your decisions while you're here on earth, or you look at it all and use positive perspectives to make your decisions while you're here on earth. Philosophy is the study of truths in life. Something so intriguing to ones human mind that you make finding beautiful pondering meanings to life a way of life. Its all decided in your own decision what you decide to belive in.
