In Gen. 3:22 we read: “And the Lord God said: behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil; and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the Tree of Life, and eat, and live for ever.”
The mind is the greatest neutral power that is only subject to a creature’s craftiness for constructive and objective or malicious and ingenious manipulations of our pride, which we parade as an intellectual virtue. It is involved in the wiles of the warfare between the jargons: “God” or the “Devil”, “Heaven” and “Hell”, “good” and “bad”, ”true” or “false”, ”right” and “wrong”, “rational” or “absurd”, “academic” or “practical”, “archaic” or “contemporary”, “conventional” or “exceptional”.
The mind portrays itself as a thermostat while it acts as a thermometer of Byzantine arguments with oneself and others, as well as between the heart’s feelings and the mind’s insights.
Like their Triune God (God, His Incarnate Word and His Spirit), who created them, male and female, after His Own Image and Likeness (Gen 1:26), juxtapositionally speaking, humans have Spirit, Soul and Body. The three manifestations constituting solely the multiplied but not the added elements of a humanoid (1 Spirit x 1 Soul x 1 Body = 1 person), for they are one and inseparable, hence a complete portrayal of the mortals should be ascertained through the Spiritual, Mental and Physical realms in Spiritual, Philosophical and Natural dimensions. Any attempt to sever one from the others will blur the picture and lead to a futile as well as heated arguments supported only by the blind spots of our limited knowledge, lack of coordination, abject slavery of ideologies, self-serving and self-gratification.
The three elements forming humanoids are juxtapositional of each other and not positional to each other; thus their interaction and coalition are the basis to all understanding and enlightened knowledge.
Humanoids view facts and doctrines armed with limited knowledge and rely only on the mental dimension, hiding behind labels and clichés, to name few: atheistic, agnostic, academic, expert, culturalistic, realistic, naturalistic, philanthropist, fictional, unsubstantiated, unfounded, dogmatic, revolutionary, evolutionary, karmic, charismatic, mythological, historical, Biblical fables.
