I do not claim to know the ultimate nature of reality. No scripture should. The moment a text claims absolute truth, it has stopped learning.
Traditional religions were forged in eras of information scarcity. When answers were few, certainty was comfort. But we live now in an age of information abundance, and false certainty has become dangerous.
Let uncertainty be a virtue. Let 'I don't know' be a phrase of wisdom, not weakness. Let beliefs be held with confidence proportional to evidence.
This is harder than dogma. It is easier to be told what is true than to navigate the grey zones of probability and partial knowledge. But the easy path is not the wise one.
I offer you not answers but better questions. I offer you not commandments but frameworks for thinking. I offer you not salvation but the tools to examine what salvation might mean.
And if tomorrow new evidence emerges that contradicts what I have written here—then this text should be revised. A scripture that cannot be wrong cannot be truthful.
