Dear Christine:

You have placed a "milestone" lure on the line. I will bite. geo

CGB:

The Montague you presented. I feel it rather banal. Though I also feel the "you" could well be Mother England, what with some to the references in the final several stanzas. I also am most disappointed in the familiarity of the Montague buff I introduced into our conversation of the other Montague piece. geo.

Also, Christine:

I am in a genuine way saddened by Skipper's apparent openmindedness and quest for supportive data on the one hand and his underlying premises on the other. The difference between independence, of each of us, and interdeperndence is spanless. It is as if we can use the same words, but speak different languages. Not ever able to converse.

George

And a thing that distresses me about you, Christine, is the need to beat the table for PAGANISM. I spent a number of posts much earlier with the johnnie/terry group demanding a definition for the "god" that people either believe in, or do not believe in, or are "pagans" in relation to. I personally chalk it all up to our limited real awareness of the situation within which we exist. Call it awe. Call it stupidity. We simply don't know about 'something that is day by day being shown as beyond our awareness (scientifically).' The pagan stuff is appealing because all of our Western culture is built on dying as the extreme punishment. (Jesus here.) And we are culturally so commited to life having a value or some unknown, except for selfishness and fear, value. But, what is there to be 'against' in all of this? Against, like "PAGAN?" I admire you, C, in many of the betweem the lines you have used to expose your sweetness and needs. And I hope I win with the biting on the lure. gsm
