探索今日世界必將崛起的新觀念，絕不要錯過這篇有關「擴展人類對於『道德』的覺知」的觀察建言。
擴展意識並非一種推翻否定(deny)，而是一種擴增(expand)。在聽神談「改變世界的觀察建言」系列中，必然有一些顛覆性的〝新觀念〞會讓有些人聽起來像是批判，但它們只是觀察的陳述。神從不評判(judge)，評判是一種心智的運作。 讓我們一起來嚴格檢視：
聽神談【人類稱為「道德」 之社會習俗】：1/3 篇
…許多人類一向認爲最神聖的信念，竟然是謬誤的。它們只不過是 看似真實的虛假信念。由謬誤信念所產生的思維結構和思想模式，對你們毫無幫助。
尼爾：例如？
例如我們先前談過，被稱爲「道德」的人類習俗是你們較爲顯著的思維結構之一，它是一種由你們的心智所創造出的觀念。對它，你們無法去感覺、品嚐、觸摸、嗅聞或聽見，就只是一個觀念，如此而已。而且，道德是一種「建構在看似真實的謬誤信念所圍繞之架構上」的觀念。
尼爾：你在說什麼啊，你是指不應該有道德嗎？
我並沒說「應該」或「不應該」，這是由你們自行決定的。我只是說道德觀念以及其他的思維結構，都是建構在「關於生命的謬誤信念」與你們「認為其情況如何」而産生的。你們因而産生出某些社會習俗，使得你們實際上幾乎不可能做到和平、和諧、喜悅地共處。
尼爾：哲學家與社會評論家羅素曾說道：「無論是就理智上或道德上而言，宗教都是有害的；我指的是，宗教所教導的道德律無助於人類的幸福。」
然而，我們稱爲「道德」的思維結構，卻是人類整體生活方式的支撑基礎。
確是如此，這正是我整個論點之所在。這也是爲什麼我要在此再次提起的原因。是我爲何以它爲例來做說明的原因。
尼爾：但如果我們的「思維結構」是基於「謬誤信念」，而且如果「道德」是這些「結構」之一，你想要說的到底又是什麼？難道是我們的整個生活方式都錯了嗎？
我只是說，你們許多的生活方式已經無法有效地運作了。如果你們說你們所想要的，是一同過著和平、和諧、快樂幸福的日子，它是行不通的。
摘自《與神對話之新啟示》第 20章
Many of the most sacred beliefs of human beings are fallacies. They are simply false. False beliefs create mental constructions that do not serve you.
Neale: Such as?
Such as this human convention we talked of earlier, called “morality.”
This is one of your more prominent mental constructions. It is an idea created in the mind. You cannot feel it, taste it, touch it, smell it, or hear it. It is a concept, nothing more. And it is a concept built up around beliefs that are false.
Neale: What are you saying, that there should be no morals?
I am not saying what there “should” or “should not” be. That is for you to decide.I am saying that this and other mental constructions are based on false beliefs about Life and how it is, and that, because of this, you have produced certain social conventions that have made it virtually impossible for you to be able to live together in peace and harmony and joy.
Neale: The philosopher and social commentator Bertrand Russell once said, “It is not only intellectually but also morally that religion is pernicious. I mean by this that it teaches ethical codes which are not conducive to human happiness.”
Neale: Yet, the “mental construction” that we call “morality” is the underpinning of our entire way of life.
That’s right. That’s my entire point. And that’s why I’ve brought it up again here. That’s why I chose it as an example.
Neale: But if our “mental constructions” are based on “false beliefs,” and if “morality” is one of those “constructions,” what are you saying—that our entire way of life is wrong?
I am saying that much of your way of life is not working. If what you say you want is to live together in peace and harmony and happiness, it is not working.
