The contradiction thing is interesting.? The Course says that reasoning always ends where it begins.? So, if you believe?J condradicts himself, you will find evidence for this belief.? If you believe J does not contradict himself, you will?see evidence only for this.??So reading the course becomes, just like life, a practice in watching your own mind at work.? Amazing stuff!

Hi Martha,

Here's my thought on this, as to why I don't see this as a contradiction:

If my wife is asleep, and is having a nightmare, I "do not know" of what her nightmare is (similar to "God does not know of separation") -- yet I do know she is dreaming, disturbed, and not in her right mind. So if I gently stroke her hair, I may be able to "heal" her from her nightmare - even thought I know not of the nightmare itself - and my healing may be able to bring her peace, and return her to being more in her "right mind".

In the same way, God (while knowing not of separation) is aware that his son is dreaming, disturbed, and not in his right mind; so God can provide the Holy Spirit as an Answer to the "separation" that we are having a nightmare about -- while God is not aware of the nightmare (the separation) itself.

What do you think? ?:)
