Did you know that Giardano Bruno was burned at the stake in 1600 by the Church for, among other things, agreeing with Gallileo and insisting that there were infinite other worlds. Much brilliant science fiction has been written around this concept. In fact, I am currently reading such a book which has won many, many literary awards-- a series, actually, of which the first book is called The Golden Compass. One of those children's books "or all ages." A marvelous adventure. If there is a portal near me, I do hope I find it. Also, my dogs announce the arrival of just about anyone who's coming here before their car turns the corner. So I guess they know something I don't know. I respect that they are trying to tell me things, even when I can't grasp just what that might be. But, yeah, I'd say we communicate psychically. Or, at least, they do and I am uusually a bit denser, but striving to get better at it. There is much scholarly evidence to suggest that springs in Britain and Europe that were once sacred to the Goddess or goddesses were later used as sites for churches when the local folks could not be disuaded from worship there. In fact, Mary had to be elevated to accommodate beliefs that just wouldn't go away. I am not prepared to site my sources since I did my research many years ago. However, apart from the authors Nessie suggests there is also Robert Graves "The White Goddess" and an incredibly well- documented book by a late Florida librarian called The First Sex. In doing my research, I followed her notes and bibliography. It's all out there. sno0wl <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
