Only through meditation can one learn the truth of the unconscious; it's not the natural state of consciousness & we are hard-wired this way for evolutionary survival. It worked okay for mankind for a long time, but we are long overdue for a heightening of consciousness.
We have to develop the true soulful humanity within ourselves through self-sacrifice; otherwise, we are just really intelligent animals.

I don't agree with original sin, but I agree with everything else you said about our bodies and the physical...which is why atheists are essentially telling the truth when they describe reality from their limited viewpoints. They are correct, but they don't have the whole picture.
