That is an interesting point Lobster...will have to think on that some
more, though...

The interesting thing is it was not given as a kick in the teeth message,
but was accepted as such. I thought about the message before I sent it,
figured it would be taken wrong, but sent it anyway. I never have been one
to water down. Nevertheless, it was not sent in anger. *shrugs* The love
part is part of a sig file that rotates randomly; I'm too stingy with
online time to type a tag line for every message.
Funny though, how those fighting against the stereotypical pseudo-spiritual
thinking will default to other forms of the same. I really think
attempting to define what is universally spiritually correct is a
goose-chase at best and attempted mind-control at worst. I don't believe
spirituality can be defined but for one moment for one person...the
moment's truth is all that's possible. Tommorrow I may agree with El and
attempt a puppet show, or I might even think that Christianity really is
the way to go. Who knows? I look back and see how I've changed and I lose
words to describe what is happening now...just sitting back, letting it
happen for once.
Hope ya have dental insurance (is this better, El? I'm trying to fine-tune
my spiritual correctness training...;) )
