I have a literal mind, I think...just listening to discussions about chaos and string theory churns MY stomach, and boggles my mind, and they are based, supposedly, in scientific thinking. Though agnostic in faith-based subjects I've certainly had a few unexplainable incidents that have left me marvelling at the mystery of it all. And I'm OK with that. None of us truly understand the workings of our own bodies, let alone that of the universe and beyond. Watching a school of fish, or a huge flock of blackbirds, all wheeling and turning in perfect formation, it's hard not to believe in collective consciousness. If only the Discovery Channel were able able to focus a wildlife camera back through time on small tribes of stoneage humans, the same patterns might be seen. I think our brains have just outgrown mind/body wisdom.
