Hi! Thanks for the explanation. However, regarding RIGHTS - I was watching a
comedian last night - he was saying "Now that we have a Bill of Rights - we
should have a corresponding Bill of Responsibilities" I laughed myself off my
loveseat! His example "you have a right to bring a child on a plane - you in
correspondence have a responsbility not to let the child scream on the plane."
I don't know if those were his exact words -
I was thinking about environmental rights/responsibilities:
For example: A lumber company has the right to cut down the trees it owns on
the property it owns - However, that lumber company has a responsibility not
to cut them down to preserve the ecosystem and the homes for the forest
animals.
I came up with many examples!
I agree with the comedian - we need a Bill of Responsibilities - But if we are
responsible to life - Why? I say we are because we are co-creations! By
virtue of springing from the same realm of creation - God being the
Creator/Lord. Now BB how would you answer the question here - Why would the
Goddess want us to be responsbile for life?
The reason I think the Earth is not a Goddess/deity - because the Earth is
affected by the moon and the sun - why would a deity be? I have no problem
referring to the Earth as motherly or feminine in nature but not deity. To me
Earth is sustaining LIFE - the SEED gives Life - the gift of God.
Peace!

Hi! Just wanted to clarify this - I said the Spirit wants obedience - purety
and obedience - it should be obvious - man should also be pure and obedient to
woman - both male/female obedient - to each other and the rest of Life - what
I meant! OK?
Peace!

<< Divinity by it's very nature in relationship to humanity has to be just as
diverse as humanity itself. This is not the many faces of the one true god,
it is many different gods to fufill many different purposes & needs. Your
God
will never ever be my God ever & believe me I know I'm not missing out on
making that choice.
Hi!
Divinity has to be diverse? Why?
It is many different gods? How many?
Gods have to fulfill purpose and needs - why? and what purpose and needs?
My God is Love - fulfilling all purpose and need - for Love is afterall all
you need -
Please understand that the Goddess was created to explain fertility - as if
fertility were life - fertility is the process by which life is created - not
a deity - by a life process - then what is life? Is the Goddess life itself?
Why hasn't she told us about herself? What's her real name? Saying you
believe in the Goddess is saying to me you are mad at God (whom you call my
God) and wanting an alternative source to worship - what does the Goddess give
you in terms of life and love?
peace!
