Subsequently.
Alan Watts, intermittently described as a mystic or weirdo in some circles, tends more towards the well-learned and those interested in self-progression, the process. In reality, a very well-studied seminary graduate and Anglican pastor.
He refutes some scientific points:
that "our intelligence is an unfortunate mistake"
that "our only hope is to beat the irrational universe into submission".
He contends that there is much hope for us all yet, and that varying fallacies will fall like scales from our eyes as we progress from the agnostic to the purely spiritual, and I further that to say we need not embrace the dogma of others, but carve our own path by cataloguing the congruities and intermittent patterns of the universe.
Is life not a pure wonder?
Is awakening not a great gift.
As Watts states it, how unlikely it would seem that an unintelligent universe would spawn an entire billion-some total of intelligent beings.
We say God and some say the Universe. We have the Pater Familia and all, the benign Creator breathing life into the something formed of the dust, something of the substance of the earth being imputed something wondrous from God.
