Even if you kept close watch on your private stash of beliefs and opinions the whole time, the Program is very effective. While we're busy fending off one outrageous bit of dogma, another is slipping in unnoticed.
So, as a totally spontanious public service, here are a few of my observations and musings about destructive Programing.
The first and most important rule is that we don't love you. We, being Group, and love being a beautiful, prescious and fragile tet-a-tet that sometimes, if you're lucky and wise in balanced measure, may grow and thrive between people who know each other well and like each other anyway.
So don't go looking for it here as a default, everybody gets one like one of those bogus mediocrity triphies and ribbons they hand out to elementary students.
It don't work like that. Same for trust and respect and all the rest.
Just because you've figured out that you really don't know someone well enough to trust them doesn't mean they're a bad guy or out to get you or a traitor or anything. They're just, well, strangers, that's all.
Oh, never mind.
Anon, I like your poetic comedy. And I know I'm not your only fan.
No synonym for God is so perfect as Beauty. Whether as seen carving the lines of the mountains with glaciers, or gathering matter into stars, or planning the movements of water, or gardening - still all is Beauty!
