Every temple is gold Every hook is designed Hell is but the temple Of the closed mind Maybe we are clinging to culture and religion...I dont think they cling to us! Is it helping us, or hindering us? Warlords are inflicting hideous atrocities. They are doing it for money, power and prestige...whats everyone elses excuse for being nasty...words hurt as much as bullets do to some people. Warlords bank on their knowledge that the majority of the world suffers from ethnocentrism and religocentrism (even the angels who may walk amongst us). If we think that our lifestyle, our profession, our cultural practice, or our religious beliefs are more glamorous, righteous, holy, superior, important, or even more pain deriving than those of our enemy (or even our friends and family) then MAYBE we are as guilty as the warlords of this world. Its one thing to make our views known, but blighting, diminishing, devaluing, or invalidating other peoples belief systems and experiences by trying to explain to them why our religion and culture (or beliefs in general) are more worth while or better than theirs is a slippery slope. Unsolicited advice can be dangerous. Why even go there? Smooth sailing :)
