Don't you think that our access to reality is less and less restricted over time?
There are many reasons we lack access to reality ["Reality" meaning, Absolute Truth, "reality," our personal truth]. Human intelligence, although it is what it is, is hardly up to the task making much sense out of that which is taking place. Simply consider the notion that we do not exist in the present. Perceptual time-lag is a big problem in this regard. As well, all things intellectual are constantly changing [because what creates these ideas are constantly changing]. So just factoring in the above, you have constantly changing ideas within a skewed temporal context [and, of course, time really doesn't exist anyway]. And that's just the tip of the iceberg.
It's like math, ideas people made-up. It seems to work sometimes, but not when it really counts [at the extremes], and besides, since all things are unique, what exactly does "more than one" mean?
It's pretty easy to break-down what is commonly thought to be Truth and expose it for what it is...non-sense, but just the same, we need what limited help our intellect can supply to get us through our days. The secret is in understanding the limits of such and where to go from there.
