True and False Believers

Capitalists believe in universal exemption from Earth's resonant resilient wealth of cooperatively-held holistic health. Christians, at our best, believe in universal redemption with EarthMother and LoveFathers' cooperatively gracious compassion. Buddhists, at our most transcendent heights and intimate depths, believe in experiencing universal causation, resonant correlations of atoms and waves, of staid matter and flamboyant energy of space revolving place and spiraling evolutions causing effective sacred time: Invested with transcendent through intimate Earth, natural vision through spiritual listening, polypathic thoughts causing and cooperatively caused by polyphonic feelings.

My more specific responses are: True and false believers in compassion as healthier than dispassion. I might agree we believe in truths and falsehoods; so both--but definitely not "whatever" which heads toward cynicism, nihilism, individualism, relativism, subjectivism, which brings us back to cause for cynicism.
