I like that the force is inelegant. :P > I would have called it "Agnostic," but I'm not sure if > that is quite correct. I think that's traditionally viewed as "I'll believe it when I see it"... But then that also means that the "I don't give a damn" crowd isn't represented by a label either. But honestly, if you checked out a UU church, there's a good chance you would find them standable. I've been to all sorts of Christian churches including LDS and am now mercifully beyond that stage in my life. Judaism is to me like saying "Java? Are you kidding? It's not nearly complicated enough. There is absolutely NO replacement for ASSEMBLY!" (Sorry Mike -- that's not a pejorative, just my opinion.) I won't even touch Islam; the religion is evil, and will remain evil until even fundamentalist extremists wouldn't consider death a viable penalty for a person's beleifs or for cartoons or works of fiction. RIP Cat Stevens (who once said "I wouldn't ruin his meal if I saw him at a restaurant, but the man deserves to die" about Salman Rushdie). The same was also true of Christianity at one time (its being evil), but they've reformed and now they're just occasionally annoying in person and problematic in government office. I'm more inclined to attend a Wiccan ceremony, but they're not real big for me either (though I do like the symbolism, particularly the chalice)... a Unitarian commune would be hella sweet, but Unitarians by and large seem disinterested in communal living in spite of their interest in community -- it's wierd... that's my one big beef with Unitarians is that they're too "separatist" in that way, although I suspect that has more to do with mainstream culture than with UUism in spite of their big talk about radical individualism. s. isaac dealey 434.293.6201 new epoch : isn't it time for a change? add features without fixtures with the onTap open source framework http://www.fusiontap.com http://coldfusion.sys-con.com/author/4806Dealey.htm ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:201545 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
