It is interesting how evident this is and we have, by way of religion mostly, hallucinated a separation between ourselves, this earth and existence.

Indeed.

“Irrevocable commitment to any religion is not only intellectual suicide; it is positive unfaith because it closes the mind to any new vision of the world. Faith is, above all, openness - an act of trust in the unknown.”

— Alan Watts
