I must object to the inclusion of Jesus in this chapter. As far as I can tell, Jesus doesn't tell you to see the world for yourself - he tells you to see the world as he sees it and teaches it. Listening to him takes priority over seeing for yourself.
The idea of the divide interests me. The divide may be kept between our truth and everything else, but what happens as we grow? Someone who ventures out amongst the heresy will gain new perspectives, which will likely change their truth or at least how they perceive it. The idea of keeping the divide may not be synonymous with keeping an unchanged divide. To keep the divide we must evolve it separate new heresy and our growing selves.
Seems a little egocentric. One could argue that drifting among the infinitude of possible experiences enriches us. We need not depend solely on our own vision, nor even in our own narrow milieu. By depending so intently on our own vision, we narrow the possibilities for change, even major change.
