One time, long, long ago, back when the world was black and white, before cell phones, when cable meant you have 3 extra channels, before the internet and memes, back when we read actual paper books bound by cloth and cardboard, during the days of Jerry Falwell and Ernest Angsley, I was an ordained Pentecostal minister, strong in my convictions in God, the Holy Ghost, and the Religious Right...
Boy, was I ever wrong...
This was the time of tele-evangelism, when the faith healers duped us into believing in things hoped for, with unseen evidence, and for just a small offering you to can be healed, for it says, "give and it shall be given unto you...so give me your cash! Your God commands it!"
Bullshit! There is no God, just controlling monkey men...
Absolute specious bullshit!
First, evidence unseen is not evidence... it's hearsay... lies meant to control us, confuse us, make us doubt this magnificent and magical precious thing that we call life by dangling all our imperfections over our heads like the sword that menaced Damocles, where we couldn't enjoy this feast called Life....
It's like giving you free will then taking it away from you because your choice wasn't approved...
Or like giving an old man a son only tell him go sacrifice him on an altar....
Or like killing your own child in a brutal and hideous fashion, then commanding his followers eat his body and drink his blood, often... very often….
Gross!!!
Bullshit! Lies and fairy tales to keep kids quiet at night and scare people into believing the church and her powerbase was infallible....and to get more money....
And second...religion is ALWAYS about money... that's why I'm a godless communist...
I have since traveled on in the Stream of Life and have realized at least 3 things: I am the only light there is for myself, the universe unfolds as it should regardless of what I think, and science doesn't care what I believe, it just happens...
I'm still ordained but I don't see the God out there so much as the God within us...a collective consciousness that compels us to be good and do the right thing... but it's not a specific god in there but more the amazing power of a synchronistic species that has so much promise and music, there’s still a few moves left in this species.... we are all this so called “higher power” so let's work, no…let’s dance together....
But I still beg to differ with the Trafalmadorans... there is free will... kinda..
.........*...
So about me... I'm a musician, a writer, an artist, an entertainer, a technologist, a polyglot, a polymath, and so much more... But I never forget to have fun....i love music and the arts and football and hockey.... nature is my home and it's my responsibility to keep it safe....
I like smart, fun and daring.... that makes me very happy....I like happy, I try to make people smile and make them laugh....
Seriously, i have more to say.....but I’d rather say it when we meet…
Thanks for watching…peace
