The Circular Theory

we separate science and religion

so we can think more clearly

but once we have 'figured it out'

it is easy to see science and religion

must articulate the same reality

science and religion are in a circle

they both articulate and are articulated by

the circle for, after all,

science came from religion

and religion came, originally, and only, from science

the symbols we use to articulate reality

are personal at best

that is, we must choose what to see

when to see it

how to see it, and, most importantly,

how to symbolize it

a rational man

realizes he hides an irrational woman inside

and the opposite of this is also true

that is, we have, and we are,

rational and irrational

men and women

only the circle combines these

properly

reality means we do and do not

believe everything and anything

we see

we have figured out how to live with

two opposing views as one

we can stretch the limits of imagination

as far as imagination stretches

and this is very far indeed

is this an open or a closed idea?

both, neither, either

a pair of anything makes a one

pairs do not have to be related in any way

but then again they may be

and this is all, and only, clarified by the circle

we can see whatever we decide to see

and this, obviously, is our most demanding

responsibility

hope and despair surround

clothe and protect each other

and only we can decide for hope

the weather reminds us

we are constant

circular reality means

we can lose no arguments

nor win them either

we're all in a circle

and there is only one circle

(many circles one circle)

I am no more or less

special than you

and this statement

causes all of the wars

and all of the treaties

equality is equivalence

at its most magical and reverent (and relevant) state

we can see it anytime we want to

and the opposite of this is always

also true

once we see a line must be the diameter of a circle

we notice very many lines too-many-to-count

and very many circles too-many-to-count

and the most important (and only true) fact:

there are no lines without circles

(no men without women and no women without men)

there are no paradoxes

and there are only paradoxes

and, of course,

this is the great paradox

(we have already figured it out)

day is night

true is false

good is bad

right is wrong

left is right

up is down

circular is linear

and the opposite of all of these

are, of course,

also true (and false)

we can (see) say everything's a circle

or everything's a line

both are true and, of course, false

depending on the view (observer)

we are at the point where

philosophy is science

we were (are) always

at this point

science and religion deliver

the same amount of truth

they are both in every moment

half correct

any opposite pair is equivalent and equal

this we can choose to see (and say)

anytime we want to
