edgar and joe..
i had that tiny thought too way way back... and was nervous to suggest it..... joe your catholic roots are still there.. as i always say.."once a catholic always a catholic"..t they get em sucked in the day they are born and indoctrinate them big time... saying that edgar..thomas merton was a catholic... let's think BIG... let's think woh.. maybe just maybe there is a tiny lesson to learn here for all of us.. i ask is your slate squeaky clean edgar? merle merle Joe and Merle, More New Age pseudo Zen from Joe.... Zen has nothing to do with God. Joe is obviously still a Catholic. He can't escape this attachment either.... 'Do as you please'? Zen is not an excuse for acting any which way the ego moves. Zen is letting the Buddha within move as IT pleases, not as little Joe pleases...
