The meaning is one more than four and one less than five.

>ginko baloba?
Absolutely not.
>the tree of the knowledge. can you imagine eating knowledge from a
>tree.
Nope.
>have heard of the ancients eating written words to gain more of the
>meaning.
>yet never heard of a tree that spouts knowledge.
You never read the Bible.
>where do you thing this idea of a plant that can liberate?
Fantasy.
>do you think this was the same tree jesus was crucified on?
Jesus wasn't cruficfied on a tree, he was crucified on a cross.
>symbolically even?
Bingo! You are quick!
>> Where did God get His knowledge of evil when he created the tree of
>> knowledge of good and evil --
>don't think god had any,
Think again.
>god created this world to learn about this
>world, not cause god already knew it.
You cannot create something you do not know anything about.
>and is not good and evil one of the rule of the universe?
Nope.
>opposite sides of the same coin?
Yep.
>opposite charges that create the magnetism that holds us all together?
Nope.
>so we can't have this universe with out magnetism, without polar
>opposites.
Maybe not this universe but what about other universes?
>> from His heart or from His head?
>neither, god wanted to know about god, so god invented the universe
>and the world.
>we use toy trucks and dolls and learn about real life when we are
>young.
>god was young then too.
God was never young.
>> Why didn't God
>> have Satan create the tree of knowledge of evil instead?
>he is the one that is telling eve about the fruit from that tree?
Good guess!
>satan doesn't create. satan reacts. satan does the obvious.
>read the instructions to satan from god in the book of job.
Nowhere does Job say Satan cannot create.
>also, when there is no polarity there can be no opposite.
That is circular reasoning.
>and until the universe was formed satan could not be manifest.
Why not?
>> Maybe because Satan
>> couldn't create a tree evil enough for God to look down on and declare
"and it
>> was good"?
>who is the creator of the experiment?
>god? or satan? it is up to the one creating the situation to define
>it.
No it isn't, unless you believe in child abuse.
>after it is created, we all seem have been given this world finished.
It doesn't look finished to me.
>> Which is more evil:
>there is no evil, when there is polarity.
Then there is no good.
>all life is polarized, so god asks us to invision a lack of polarity
>and dwell there until we escape this duality of life.
You are the only one who believes that.
>> the person who does an evil deed
>there is no evil.
You are contradicting yourself. I thought evil was part of one of the
rules of
the universe you just made up above?
>there is attraction, and opposites do attract.
Sometimes.
>there is polarity tho you can't have one side without the other.
Yes you can. Not everything is polarized, except for you and your
polarizing the
issue.
>so to say there is evil, is to say there is good.
Unless there is no evil, then there is no good. Come on, make up your
mind. You
are babbling.
>and relativity is of this world and not of the next.
How would you know?
>and we might all want to practice being outside of duality so that
>we may learn to live outside of life after we die.
What good is it to learn about something that only exists in your poorly
thought
out imagination?
>the fear of death, is the unknown, not the unknowable.
The fear of death is known, as fear of death. What happens after death is
what
is unknown.
>we no longer need to fear death when there is no death.
Then you will always have to fear it.
>and we escape this world of back and forth.
Prove it.
>> or the
>> accomplice who teaches that person how to do evil deeds?
>there is only you. there is no one else.
>all that is around you is you and your consciousness manifest.
>there are no evil deeds, there are lessons of consequences for actions
>taken.
You are babbling and you are going off on a wild arse tangent. Please
re-read
the post and try to respond to the questions asked in a logical manner. I
will
take you a little more seriously then.
