Conviction without concern

No worries, we are secure in our hope for salvation from the prisons spoken of earlier in this blog.

As a reminder, the prisons are due to: gravity, metabolism, time, society, perspective, thought, and death.

Conviction without conviction

 We are born prisoners.

Gravity

We are bound to the surface of our planet, by gravity. Leaping may give us a meter. Dreaming of flying gives some satisfaction, and has led to actual flying machines, now within the reach of many of us. For a brief moment — hours at most — we are off the surface. A few adventurous souls have reached low earth orbit, some for months. Even fewer have ventured further. All such altitude gains are temporary. We must soon return to the surface.
