Morality is not determined by the church you attend nor the faith you embrace. It is determined by the quality of your character and the positive impact you have on those you meet along your journey
Also interesting: "Christianity: The First Three Thousand Years" by Diarmaid MacCulloch. It's a real eye-opener as well as an information-packed and well-written book. Diarmaid MacCulloch is the author of The Reformation, winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award, the Wolfson Prize, and the British Academy Prize, and of Thomas Cranmer, winner of the Whitbread Prize, the James Tait Black Prize, and others.
Interesting. I read there is a resurgence in Norse heathenism going on. I suppose they would be neo-norse pagans or Asatru or something. I can't remember what they're called. But the Scandanavian military were recognizing it as a religion.
Uh-oh! Looks like Christianity is a spin-off from those "a-rabs". What in the world are they going to do now?!

What is is about the unevolved, primitive human brain that needs a big daddy in the sky to pray to?
ReplyDeleteThe miracle of being alive with a dancing/questioning mind -- and knowing that we are made of Star Stuff -- isn't good enough?
I may need to print this one out!

Barbara Carlson... it is perfect for me! Stardust comes to form and when that form dies, its energy once again dances the universe uncumbered.
ReplyDeleteGood one, Gryph. Thanks for sharing.
