Chris,

I am sorry that you feel that way.

Tell me exactly how I have blasphemed. Is it because I have believed that God would only use the highest levels of morality and the most logical thought process that I can imagine in terms of how he views us? Is it because that I feel that a name is only a name, and that caring about it is an action that is solely ego based, and that believing such, I would not think that egoism is an action of the enlightened being that God surely must be? Where is the dishonor to God in what I am saying?

I notice that you have ignored the main part of the post that you were referring to. Why do you not address that aspect of the post? I would be interested in your thoughts.

Mark

~ The most beautiful and profound emotion
we can experience is the sensation of the mystical...

It is the sower of all true science.
He to whom the this emotion is a stranger
who can not stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead.
That deeply emotional conviction of the existence of
a superior reasoning force in the incomprehensible
universe, forms my idea of god.
