Left handedness. New scientist theory.

[von bek]

Von, the reason I brought up the topic is that handedness is an unconscious phenomena that we experience consciously as handedness.

Not only that the article I posted says it's not even developed in the brain. In religion there is a dominance toward the unconscious. In Catholic tradition it's called the sacred heart. A bit of the heart over head theme that many or I should more accurately state feel over idea concept. Your take would be nice?

I agree with the idea of favoring my heart over my head, if I am catching your drift. I prefer kindness over intelligence. (Not that I dislike intelligence in any way.)

Yes. Life is always a tension, and that for me requires a couple of steps, pause, breathe get a reality check, a couple of more steps, pause breathe get a reality check. It sounds simple but it really is very difficult for us "smart" folks. Reality check for me are long walks and time in what most would call the wilderness. A kind of time out from the city.

In Decisiveness has it's merits.

I guess if you have two left hands or two right hands depending, it can be good or bad.

I am ambidextrous. Power in my left hand, precision on my right.

It sounds really great.
I'd give my right arm to be ambidextrous.

I know this question was not posed to me, but I will go ahead and give my reason. I come here because I am religious, I find religion incredibly important, and I enjoy talking about the subject with others who are interested. I have no clue whether the hand you favor correlates to your thoughts on religion. Mark me as left-handed and deeply religious.

I think it may be related. I am wondering how the lefty population spreads across spectrum conceptually in religion. Religion is a huge spectrum, it covers the entirety. Most people are not aware of that. It's mostly understood in a, singular denominational kind of way. Joan baez said she was a "friend" of the Ba'hi not is Ba'hi she said Religion was too open to charlatans for her. I get get that very clearly.

Religion is a fascinating part of human life, as well as a very consequential one.

I'm left-handed.
