As I re-read Patrick's words, it sounds to me like he's using the
difference between right and wrong as a way to find God, not using God to
be told the difference between right and wrong.
As an atheist, I completely agree with his approach; I just bleeped over
all the God parts.

Coconut, glad you caught that. That was the point. Yesterday on each stroke
there was no other option but to be in your head to be the witness. For me
it's therapy.
On the matter of existence, it is all subjective and I always attempt to
give individuals their due respect regardless their view
One pedal stroke at a time I think you guys are onto something. I
enjoy long climbs for that reason and the need to pay attention to
breathing. A simple, repetitive task that calms the mind cuts down on
internal chatter.

Dear Philip and Peter,
Well, you're both right and both wrong in understanding what I was
attempting to say, but it is clear this is not the forum for further
discussion of it, so I won't make further attempts to clarify. Please
accept my apologies for straying beyond the confines of this
Patrick,
Ah you can say what you like my Brother. My post was an introspective one
and your thoughts and beliefs are valid. Please feel free to clarify. After
all I believe the Riv universe would approve as long as there's no
serious proselytizing. You are loved.

Thanks, Hugh. I will say this much ... Saint Nicholas is real, and as an
eternal member of the Communion of Saints he is beyond time and space, so
space Santa is entirely logical with the eyes of faith. Grin.

Haha, sorry for my tone seeming harsh, Internet is a hard place for tone.
My daughter and wife are religious and I was an altar boy and have a minor
in religious studies. I more find religion fascinating than real though.
Feel free to speak your mind, you don't need anyone's permission to do
that,
Apology accepted, Peter. I am sorry the faith you experienced growing up
was tainted to be less than its infinite reality.
With abandon,
Patrick

Patrick, when Chris wrote about living in the moment and looking with clear
eyes and an open heart, he was describing a fundamental aspect of Buddhism
that is often referred to as mindfulness. The hope is to be aware of what
is going on within us and all around us; conscious of presence, thoughts

No such thing, sweetheart. You never have to think about anything. But you
may want to choose to. Grin.
Mindfulness, logic, and reason are among the weapons that fight temptation.
Learn to recognize false logic and you have learned how to recognize sin

Hugh,
Thanks for sharing, it's necessary to put your thoughts down sometimes and
to remember everybody goes through something. Your message reminds me of
some lyrics by Townes;
Spring only sighed
summer had to be satisfied
fall is a feelin' that I just can't lose.
I'd like to stay
maybe watch
Indeed.
Rides and thoughts like that is one of the main reason this list exists.
Thanks for putting that down and sharing it.
