- "The most beautiful and profound emotion we can experience is the sensation of the mystical. It is the sower of all true science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead. To know that what is impenetrable to us really exists, manifesting itself as the highest wisdom and the most radiant beauty, which our dull faculties can comprehend only in their primitive forms - this knowledge, this feeling, is at the center of true religion." ~Albert Einstein

- From the page: "The most beautiful and profound emotion we can experience is the sensation of the mystical. It is the sower of all true science. " The rational and the mystical are not at odds, no matter what Ayn Rand and the "Objectivists" say. Arrogantly assuming you can figure everything out with your brain is not reason, it's blindness.

- Profound. What IS the point to religion if it's not mystical?

- I won't quote Einstein here, since the passage is short and you'd have no reason to visit the page if I did. I'll just give my own little commentary. It might be best if you visit the page first, then return and read what I've written, lest it be too much of an influence.
(A good reason StumbleUpon should add a feature to hide comments. Hint, hint.)
I'm not religious, nor am I spiritual by any accepted standard. Despite this, I'm not closed minded to idea of feeling in awe and wonder of things greater than myself and beyond my understanding. I simply choose not to remain in awe and wonder, but to do what I can to gain a greater understanding and become more than I am through it. I know too many people who choose to isolate themselves within the limits of their current understandings. They are what they are, they say, and always will be. I feel sorry for them. There is so much to learn and experience within the brief flicker of a life's candle flame than none of us could hope to discover it all, but some choose to accept the delusion that they have and whatever lies outside there understanding is not worth knowing. Their lives become little more than idle time before death. I want to live like a child in a petting zoo, always amazed by what I see and looking for whatever else there might be, never wanting to leave. I won't stop learning, experiencing, and growing till I'm no longer breathing. - I won't quote Einstein here, since the passage is short and you'd have no reason to visit the page if I did.
