AS BILL SEES IT #essentialsofrecovery


~ Page 260 ~

Inward Reality

It is being constantly revealed, as mankind studies the material world, that its outward appearances are not inward reality at all. The prosaic steel girder is a mass of electrons whirling around each other at incredible speed, and these tiny bodies are governed by precise laws. Science tells us so. We have no reason to doubt it.

When, however, the perfectly logical assumption is suggested that, infinitely beyond the material world as we see it, there is an all-powerful, guiding, creative Intelligence, our perverse streak comes to the surface and we set out to convince ourselves that it isn’t so. Were our contention true, it would follow that life originated out of nothing, means nothing, and proceeds nowhere.
