Gullible humans have been duped by spiritual predators for thousands of years. Unlike religion Buddha did not preach religion. He preached, 'Do not harm anything' That includes dogs. Do not even mindlessly pick leaves off the trees. Spirituality and religion (Jesus Crap) are polar opposites. Religion as a construct is a well designed bullshit to sublimate all the unfair caste and class system constructs from India to the U.S. Religion is for saps.
Wow Skip, It is unfortunate that U must call names. Those of us who trust and acknowledge the only true living God do not condone cruelty to any of God's creatures. I continue to pray for the lost..including u. the good nurse
All religion is malpractice, which is a legal term, a civil society term, which is why religion was invented in the first place. Civil society. That time and place is over. Religion was trussed up with Politics at the beginning to control the sheeple. Religion is another word for bigotry. It has to be that way. They are brothers/sisters together walking, and laughing down the road. It is always an inside joke though. As it was in the beginning. Word of the day. Even the people that invented religion did not believe it. IT WAS AN INSIDE JOKE ha ha.
Just as a candle cannot burn without fire, men cannot live without a spiritual life.

Sista Jasai,
Measuring anything by the way "most" do it, is an exercise in futility.
"Most" Americans eat a diet that makes them obese, sick and sad. It is half assed and convenience based.
That doesn't make food bad.
Let us not allow religious malpractice to represent "religion" any more than quackery represents science.
hear here.
ReplyDeleteWell said DV.
