dec88f0 | So what actually goes on with all this religion business? Does it really matter whether you're a Gnostic, a Christian, a Muslim, a Shi'ite, a Hindu, a Taoist, a Rosicrucian, a Jew, a Witch or a Jehovah's Witness? Not in the slightest. (Well, it might matter if you're a Jehovah's Witness). Does it matter if you follow the teachings of Confucius, Buddha, Ramakrishna or Mary Baker Eddy? Of course not. Does it matter if your ritual object or talisman is a cup, an amulet, a tabernacle, a horseshoe, holy water, a wishbone, a Sanctus bell, a St. Christopher, a baptismal font, a rabbit's foot, rosary beads, a broomstick or a seven-branched candlestick? No, it's just something to focus your mind on. The real power is within you. Just as long as it doesn't become a cop-out. Which it so often does. Why? I'll tell you. Because Rag, Tag & Bobtail are not willing to take responsibility for their own lives. They need someone to tell them what to do and what to believe. But in reality you don't need anyone. It's all there inside you. You grant your own absolution. Hey, it's your life! You certainly have more control over your ultimate destiny than a priest. | religion religion-and-philosophy religion-quotations religion-quotes | Karl Wiggins |
