The End of Enchantment

How did you come into this world?

Were you born as an infant to human parents?

Did you fly here from another place?

Did God find you among waiting souls and place you in your new body?

Did you create this world and find yourself in it?
Well that's pretty absurd. You mean the whole universe???
Look at it this way: Did you ever have a dream?
Oh, I see what you mean...

So how did you come? What do you remember?
I can't remember much...
Just a few events when I was very small...
Well how do you expect me to remember anything? My brain was very young and I wasn't recording memories. But everybody knows how we come here!

Yes, and what they told you makes perfect sense.

But what if you dreamed them up too? What difference would it make what they told you?

To believe everything you are told is what we are going to call Enchantment.

To be able to hold everything in abeyance, and to consider radical descriptions of the world and existence, and attune to one's inner sense of what is right, this is the beginning of The End of Enchantment.

This website will present a series of essays and visions that will challenge everything that is commonly understood. We will not attempt to provide proof. You can provide your own assent - or not.

We hope you find these pages interesting and enjoyable. You may find them empowering...
