This is th...Couldn't agree with you more, Bart. This is the only aspect of blind faith that I miss. But... I'd rather make my own peace with the reality of death than to suffer the guilt, craziness and self loathing of religion. <br /><br />Sing along if you feel like it!!! I still sing 'Amazing Grace' and a few other hymns but it doesn't change reality one little bit. Nothing is so soothing as singing along to a good song. I don't believe in fairies or Santa but nothing stops me from singing along to Loreena McKennit or Christmas tunes. So sing along if you want. There is no way anyone would ever mistake you for a theist. Not in a million years. Just......no....way.....ever..... ;-)MissBizzyLizzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05729978961262432490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3488651241352366915.post-16423080573268194202015-04-18T20:51:23.629-04:002015-04-18T20:51:23.629-04:00Jacquie...

Then I realized I was in a church and the last thing I'd want is for someone to mistake me for theist. <br />;)<br /><br /><br />Dromedary Humphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14165566701791663057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3488651241352366915.post-86142202460669979572015-04-18T20:08:08.643-04:002015-04-18T20:08:08.643-04:00We used to sing Morning Has Broken at school assem...We used to sing Morning Has Broken at school assembly long before Cat Stevens got hold of it :) In the UK all schools are Church of England schools and every morning starts with a religious assembly which it is possible to opt out of if you have other beliefs or lack thereof.Jacquiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13438761058398263779noreply@blogger.com
