"The point is simply that, if there is to be any life and movement at all, the attitude of faith must be basic—the final and fundamental attitude—and the attitude of doubt secondary and subordinate." https://t.co/o2VRFpvb7U

This is isomorphic to the relationship between Both/And thinking and Either/Or thinking 🤯 https://t.co/DLkVeiFa6H

Both/And thinking and Either/Or thinking don't have a symmetric relationship. BA can contain EO but not the reverse. In Both/And thinking, you can have BOTH both/and AND either/or. In Either/Or thinking, you can have EITHER both/and OR either/or.

Both of these 👆ground out in the relationship between the right & left brain hemispheres 🧠 The left hemisphere is structurally incapable of deeply understanding the right hemisphere's perspective, and this is okay (tho means don't have LH run the show). https://t.co/bBrtOMMx4j

I have noted that the LH learning to trust the RH feels like surrendering to God, since RH is incomprehensible to LH. It seems that there's a sense in which that's not just a feeling, but basically just *true*. (The RH works in mysterious ways, from LH's perspective!)
