111:3.5 The [[mortal]] [[career]], the ''soul's evolution'', is not so much a [[probation]] as an [[education]]. [[Faith]] in the [[survival]] of [[supreme]] [[values]] is the core of [[religion]]; genuine [[religious]] [[experience]] consists in the [[union]] of supreme [[values]] and cosmic [[meanings]] as a [[realization]] of [[universal]] [[reality]].
