Fred, I am down with that but will he get those damn slow automobile drivers out of the left hand express lane soon? LOL.
Actually I am down with Goethe who said something like "be bold and great forces will be with you".
I believe some great spiritual power, something bigger than us gave us life, the power and intelligence to make our own luck and it is for us, if we so choose, to help those who have not yet learned to use it to learn they have the power also and to help them find it. I am a very spiritual person but I don't believe in the archaic superstitions handed down to us by people we would laugh at if they were here now trying to teach us about life. I like to think of myself as a little bit more intellectually evolved than a 1st century human, please. Remember religious zealots were burning people at the stake for believing the earth revolved around the sun in Galileo's day. Is this the intellectual level you want the world to abide.
Please, we aren't going to make any real progress in human relations until we all become enlightened to the fact that we have been led astray by religious divisiveness for centuries and that all organized religion is designed to manipulate the masses to the purposes of the few, that religion leads to killing and hatred regardless the teachings of the priests and prophets of the religion.
This would be a much safer world if everyone believed simply in a religion of tolerance for his fellow man, as long as his fellow man doesn't transgress, and cooperation and charity in the mutual interest. What else do we humans really need? Santa Claus?
