Is the human conception of 'Everything' narrowed by understanding, or as a term does 'Everything' really mean 'Everything'? Is an unknown or alternate reality, because of its untangible nature, a part of humanity or beyond Our 'Everything'. Does the religious conception of creation narrow our view of 'Everything'? Philisophicaly, what is 'Everything' and what is not?

"Everything" is truly subjective and based on perception. What you perceive as "everything" might not be what another person does. No one, religious, philosophically, or otherwise, can actually define what "everything" is except to say that "everything" is all-encompassing and all-inclusive.

With the very little we know about everything it is foolish to presume that we can fathom even a spec of what Everything is.
For me personaly I find it more important to recognise my existance within 'everything' and therfore oneness with it.
Put it this way, you are the universe just as a wave is the sea. We are all the universe and to see ourselves as seperate from it, a beeing looking out at it, is to deny the very nature of what we are.
For me these insights answer more than the question of how much we can fathom of what is. But thats just me. I hope it means something to you.

It is all that we can fathom, yes, even if that does include alternate reality; in a sense, isn't that what hope is? a belief in an alternate reality?
