    Autism & the Structure of Reality part 19: What Autism Reveals About How We See (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    Before asking what is wrong with the world or the person in front of us, perhaps we should ask what might be standing between our own eyes and the light. What if the plank and the speck are not simply about hypocrisy, but about our ability to see? This episode continues the question of human perception by asking what our histories, assumptions, wounds, projections, and certainty bring into every judgment we make. Jesus does not tell us to ignore the speck or pretend that truth is relative. He sa

    Autism & the Structure of Reality part 18: What Autism Reveals About Everyone Else (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Episode notes · Positive tone

    Read excerpt

    In this episode, you can learn: Why success, popularity, and growth do not necessarily reveal truth or goodness How the Parable of the Weeds exposes the limits of human judgment and why seeing something is not the same as seeing everything Why humility is not weakness, but the posture that makes transformation and becoming possible How the Beatitudes, the Lord's Prayer, and the Parable of the Weeds all point to the same orientation toward reality Why our responsibility is to pursue the highest a

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    In this episode: Why we imitate the visible “tree” without seeing the seeds, sacrifices, and choices that produced it How individual values spread through imitation until they become culture, institutions, and systems Why Jesus says not to pull the weeds—and what this reveals about the limits of human judgment How certainty, the crowd, and our unexamined lenses can make us believe we see the whole field Why humility means recognizing that seeing something clearly does not mean seeing everything
