These words have negative connotations, I think. We’re in this mess because some versions of “religious duty”. Maybe it’s time to switch it around a bit and use words like “spiritual” and “goal” or something like that. It’s a small detail, I guess, but maybe not. posted by: angiekruger (reply) post date: 02.24.05 (5:42 am) i have a special post for you and philippe posted by: DianneMaire (reply) post date: 02.24.05 (7:13 am) Reply to: angiekruger The story of religion has been played out over and over throughout the centuries, Angie and the ending is always the same. What we see today is no different from what we saw during the Crusades and every other religious mass movement. They just haven't drawn their swords yet. posted by: DianneMaire (reply) post date: 02.24.05 (7:18 am) Reply to: Ran But, religious and duty go together Ran. "One ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them." posted by: angiekruger (reply) post date: 02.24.05 (7:18 am) Reply to: DianneMaire oh i know hun. i've always thought religion was the major cause of all the problems in the world. throughout time. posted by: DianneMaire (reply) post date: 02.24.05 (7:19 am) Reply to: angiekruger Ok Angie, I'll tell him and have a look. You're not naked are you? LOL |
