I was pointing out the irony of my situation, and how that could be seen humorously, full blown joke, not quite. Coming to terms that there is no absolute truth for us to experience tangibly here on earth, but that we have to interpret our subjective experiences to whatever end we find would be more of the change I'm looking for, a global realization, that no one can claim right and therefore another wrong, we can point out the flawed logic in theories but its still up to the person to decide what to believe and more importantly why. Given all this, I wouldn't personally use the term enlightenment, but maybe you define that term differently than I do.
