Does the human brain fabricate duality by design?

 We're totally and delightfully screwed in all possible meanings of the phrase. 

Compared to what?  For us to be screwed wouldn't there be a scenario in which we aren't screwed?

Is it really that though? I know that's how it's used a lot, but was that the real intention of all religion? 

There would have to be a person there behind it for there to have an intention. 

 

What is the message of the English language?

So, it's not for the purpose of morality.

I mean that "this" will never become what we think this needs to be.

Isn't it "us" behind it?  To "remind" ourselves?

Yes but no cause there can't really be one that forgot and one that never did, so the one will never convince the other. It's hopeless.

Are there completely different answers you could have given to each question that would have been equally valid?

@Jonas Long Yes, thoughts always imply duality no matter what. 

 

Thoughts have their place in the kingdom of heaven (feeling a little poetic rn). 

 

It's when thought is identified with and thus a self-protective mechanism forms where the separate self is being beaten up on by itself in order to protect itself in a weird way. 

 

Ever notice when someone's lost in beating up on themselves and how that self hate is actually strengthening their identification with thought?

Duality. 

 

This implies that there are 2 bananas instead of 1.

Duality is needed for there to be a "journey" to nonduality. Nonduality needs duality to be nonduality.
