Sabbarian grid of permission obviously did not cover driving on the free way to the mental health center.
It is the splitting of us from them that leads to the breakdown in empathy and compassionate identification with others. Studies of the dominance of direction of rotation within a closed space in small mammals have shown that amphetamine-induced intensification makes the choice of right versus left (or left versus right) rotation, broken symmetry, more statistically significant. In contrast, the Hefner Foundation of Switzerland has shown that entheogenic drugs such as psilocybin in man facilitate seeing both of the conflicting, simultaneously presented, right eye and left eye images in place of the usual dominance of just one of the two representations. A precondition of compassion might be that a person’s brain be able to see and comprehend both or several sides of apparently conflicting points of view at the same time. The Fundamentalists do not see things that way. In the Koran, Mohammed says, “…give sustenance to the poor man, the orphan, the captive…and for the unbelievers We have prepared fetters and chains and a blazing fire….” In the New Testament’s Mark we find the final words of the risen Jesus, “…whoever believes and is baptized will be saved but whoever does not believe will be damned.” The Crusaders’ claimed scriptural support for their murderous marches to reclaim Jerusalem.
Carl Jung wrote about the New Testament’s Revelations in his Answer to Job: “…a terrifying picture that blatantly contradicts all ideas of Christian humility, tolerance, love of your neighbor and your enemies and makes nonsense of a loving father in heaven and rescuer of mankind. A veritable orgy of hatred, wrath, vindictiveness and blind destructive fury that revels in fantastic images of terror breaks out…overwhelming a world which Christ endeavored to restore to the original state of innocence and loving communion with God…” As Princeton University philosopher, Walter Kaufman, has noted in his Religion in Four Dimensions “…compassion for unbelievers is implicitly condemned and proscribed…Augustine argued expressly against compassion for the damned and Luther used invectives against his (religious) enemies…” How can this be God’s
