I like your approach - I think, regardless of a birth certificate we would still be lost in this false self sense of self i-dentity. People divide themselves when they i-dentify with their persona above their true self. They become and in-divide-dual. I recommend to anyone reading this that they look into the works of Sri Ramana Maharshi or Shunyamurti (the persona Jeff is often referring to in his talks). Shunyamurti (having apparently studied Sri Ramana Maharshi) is often talking about how one may break this contract. Peace
