Why Words Matter

,

 

TRUTH:

 

I believe …

 

Truth is eternal,is a sentient presence,and rightly is called by many names.

Goodness has grit,is inherent in every human being,and springs from truth.

Evil,as the opposite of truth,is by definition not a presence but an

·          absence of truth,

·          missing the knowledge that leads to truth,but

·          subject to truth’s eventual illumination

 

… that revelation leads to elucidation,which is inevitable.

 

 

KNOWLEDGE:

 

I believe …

 

Evil may evade,subvert,or mislead and yet truth prevails as knowledge reveals itself.

Knowledge replaces evil through the words we use as tools to fashion new ideas.

Ignorance is another name for evil and is an absence of knowledge that manifests through

·          chaos (having no knowledge),

·          confusion (lacking clarity by possessing information without understanding),and

·          fear (desiring no change once insight reveals that transformation is required)

 

… that change is both necessary and good.

 

 

WORDS:

 

I believe …

 

Words don’t just define,articulate,or reveal meaning;they create it.

The universe exists,endures,and expands as the word construct calls it into being.

Words,in toto across time,make up a body of knowledge that is itself corporate

·          defining,

·          articulating,and

·          revealing

 

… that we are sentient,transcendent beings in the midst of fulfilling that word human.
