Religion and Religious Type Concepts Thread

[ncbeareatingman]

You cannot link to any text that could be considered "religious".  Please change that.  Talking about it is one thing; linking is another.

I have read the Tao Te Ching.  It's a great read if you like deep stuff.  The sort of thing you can spend a lifetime peeling the layers from and understanding more and more each time you contemplate it.

 I read it when I was 15 ,I remember it well,back in 1974, The Bhagavagita was another deep read back then too...

 ON the religious thing. The word Religion in latin or greek ,I fergit now, its been so long,but it means to "re-bind with God/Source/Spirit" as in Re-Logo...re bind ;er reconnect with the word,in the beginning was the word and the word became flesh,etc....

 I am NOT into religion much though I once attended seminary ....many moons ago in my twenties.
 Alas theres a hugh difference in what Jesus taught ,to me,over all and what IS now ,well lets put it this way...there is Christiantiy and then theres "Church-chee-anity" and I am definitely  NOT into that jazz. so to speak.

   I wanna SEE a sermon, I dont wanna hear one. lemme see it !!

  The lines from the The Christian Hymn  "Oh Holy Night" I Love...." His Law is Love and his Gospel is PEACE!"  nailed it !! thats enough religion for me right there and I mean it. thats it,right there His law is love and his gospel is peace..... he was living it !!
  To me Jesus wasnt a christian and da Buddah wasnt a buddist .... they both were way too busy living the good shit.... they werent messing around, fiddling and diddiling with it....I've met chrsitians and buddist who never had to tell me they were. I saw it in them, I could FEEL IT,I  could SEE THIER LIGHT... I knew it, it was in thier aura their energy field...thats living da shit!!

 3rdly when Christianity is willing to come to the healing table and come clean,put thier cards on the table for what was  done and the still to this day the rippling effects of thier massive contribution to what they did to and with The American Indian's and as well as MY Scot Irish ancestors and what afftects many of these people, to this day,and the TRUE REPENTANCE that comes with that,the mending of the heart and  soul....over time NOT just once or twice in dialoge  to  heal these great national wounds that were created and then shalacked over.... then I am willing to get down with the get down with them to heal and not blame for the next 500yrs. and believe me much much was done!! Horrible shit,that many american's know nothing about or just DGAF about, for whatever reasons.

 One more thing,did you know.... that when the irish were literally starving to death from and during the potatoe famine  in the 1800's, that the Choctaw Indians who had already been "Locked up" on the prison camps that would later be re-termed as reservations, actually sent the Irish People Money and Food to help them out and to this day those acts of love and kindness.and are STILL HONORED  to this day!! Now that is the Indian way, that is true Christianity in action. that is the Universal way, the cosmic way to live and love.
 That is also the Viking tradtional way,the universal way and the ancient tradtional Celtic way,as well.

 Wopila  Wash'Te A-Hey-Oh!!    A'rrrric-no-rock arro-Rrrrr !! ( Roll those Scottish "R"s damn it ! Ha ha!!)

PS: There is a Meme I have that says " Theres 5,000 God's worshipped on this Planet,but ONLY yours is the right one!!?" Opps. Nothing I ever saw in the Spiriit World,EVER expressed such to me,I never saw such exclusiveness there. never and never felt it,not even once there... The dimensional relitity there is so beyound here, that. it is beyound words and perhaps its supposed to be that way!
