Dear Folks -
One of the ways we cause ourselves, and others, much difficulty
in life is by our insistence on certainty. We want to have things and
ideas. We want to hold on to things and ideas. We want to be safe and
secure. This desire always causes us, and others. to suffer. In this
Ordinary Life talk I deal with the role "creative doubt" plays in
contributing to our freedom. I focus specifically on a
misunderstanding of the verse in the Christian Scriptures where Jesus
is quoted as saying, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one
comes to the father except by me." As usual, I think the spoken
version is better than the text you will find below. Nonetheless what
follows is the text I used for a presentation I called "Creative Doubt."
Much love,
Bill Kerley
