   Faith... That's a confusing one. I was raised Catholic but I became a seeker   
   in my teen years. I came to the conclusion that God was Truth and that   
   the devil was Fear. I liked the idea that we ascend to higher levels of   
   spirituality until we attain the sphere of God. I believe that some entity   
   greater than our comprehension put all of this in motion. I believe that   
   the purpose of physical existence is evolution of the gene. However,   
   I have no idea where that evolution is headed, what's the point of   
   evolution? I heard a philosopher state that our self awareness is   
   the evolution of the universe in becoming self aware.   
   I want to know that James is not dissolved into dust and his energy   
   scattered throughout the universe. I want to believe that we are   
   spiritual beings here for a purpose, to learn lessons then move on.   
   Perhaps if I had the sixth sense I could know that there is more to   
   this life than working until you can work no more then wither away.   
   Or, have your life taken accidentally before you've experienced   
   life fully. Hmmm... I may be rambling... How does one begin the   
   journey to knowing the spirit? Books? Seminars? Palmists?   
   Sorry about that last one...   
   Thanks for writing,   
   John D.
