I think one still must generally meet the 3D requirements to get the 3D results; those are the rules here.
Faith is not a 3d mechanism. It is a mechanism that exists in 3d. Does it matter that we're not 4d entities yet? The next step will always present itself you don't need to see to run.

We've already crossed the boundary... What we see of 3d is in overtime. Snow in the spring.

Would it be more likely that the universe made a mistake in keeping you here or that you made a mistake?Q'uo would say there are no mistakes. (But if I did make a mistake, one would also have to say the Universe made a mistake, and probably vice-versa as well.) As I said, I believe I made a choice, and now I'm expressing frustration with it. But to clarify a bit more, my recollection is that I made the choice to face difficulty without a clear reason, because it felt somehow like the more substantial choice, not the only way through here.
Maybe I'm learning something from this. Grumble ...
OT perhaps: I'd like to design a better 3D, one where a choice can be made with less sturm und drang . Perhaps the concept of graduation schedules is working suboptimally. Why make almost everyone wait a few thousand years, make the STO put up with STS nonsense for so long until the end of the cycle -- once they've decided, get 'em outta here! Would that work?
