When I heal the split, I use miracles and Atonement. Which I've
written about. Right now, I'm quite a cynical bastard and not
particularly concerned about healing a split.
Part of my cynicism is people who claim to see the world as perfect,
and thinks it makes perfect sense to eat a turd on plate, at least to
make people think they would eat a perfect turd on a perfect plate,
and suggest others do the same because after all its a perfect turd in
a perfect world, instead of just removing the turd because in the end
we live in world where turds are shit, not petunias.

I didn't say that. I said right mindedness and corrected perception is
the result of healing error.

So what? Some people can do Pollyanna perception changes, but it
doesn't last or stand the test of crisis because the perception is not
stable, because the underlying error is not healed.

You are heading in the right direction, but you are wrong about what
you are doing as for as explanation in course terms.
