66. Actually, if you re-read my post . . .
you'll see that I was agreeing with George Carlin's view of an abusive "god" --
and agree -- "no god."

There is patriarchal myth however -- remember that Book called the Babble which
continues to circulate!

And if you reverse the myth, you understand that the "Tree of Life" would have
more to do with the killing and eating of animal-life than it would have to do
with anyone being forbidden to eat an APPLE!

What does make sense is what we see -- the eating of animals and the spilling of
their blood is making us all ill - physically and spiritually.

Only our species has declared war on the majority gender -- females.


but your image of human nature seems to be a leftover from the days when it was thought that an infant was a tabula rasa, and all behavior was learned. personally i think this is one of the stupidest ideas to ever make it past the "me and the guys at the bar were thinking, and..." stage. humans are complex animals, with complex behavioral controls, and with a large amount of individuality, a large ability to learn, but at the center, we are instinctual animals.
