I purposely wrote in a fairly generic sense, this is something I’m still pondering and becoming aware of. I didn’t feel confident enough to publicly share in a more practical sense although I plan to in the future.

Well Farid , couldn’t this clip be purposely done so that the dancer alternates betwwen turning clockwise and anticlockwise?

That is what I perceived anyway.

Hi Farid,

Church history is an interesting study of how our understanding of doctrine can develop even though that doctrine is settled by scripture. No wonder Peter tells us to ‘grow in grace and in the knowledge of Jesus Christ’. I also would interested in you developing this thread.

I got her to spin in both directions. When focusing on her upper body it is to me at least obvious she could only be spinning clockwise. When I looked at her shadow I noticed it was moving counter clockwise and then so did the figure appear to move counter clockwise. Very interesting.

As for your article, I know that perception is something I muse on quite a bit. After all our life experiences, our faith helps mold our world view and how we perceive things..

For the Christian without a solid grasp of the scriptures we won’t see things like God wants us to see them.

I hope you expand on your article a bit more. I perceive :) that you are talking more than just our perception of doctrine, would you care to elaborate?
