Whirled Peas

[Avonia]

Let's be honest. We have a shortage of resources becase we spend a great chunk of our resources fighting each other and protecting ourselves from ourselves. If greed and crime became unnecessary tomorrow the energy crisis would immediately disappear. Too bad that the church continues to push a theology that makes those two necessary.

"The cause of all fear is self-grasping ignorance, and all the delusions, such as selfishness, attachment and anger, arise from that ignorance, as well as all the unskillful actions motivated by those delusions."

Senti, I have this jotted down. I don't know where it came from, but it sounds like something connected to Buddhism.

Really? I've never seen one. I guess I'm not on the inside. Or I've just lived in the middle of nowhere for too long.

Yes, how "common" something is has much to do with the locus of awareness.

Many of my Whirled Peas sightings have been while sitting in traffic. Where I could actually SEE the bumper stickers.

Maybe I'll send you a t-shirt for Christmas 2008!

One more person for Whirled Peas!

Well said. It is sad how much truth is denied by Christians because they refuse to allow their God to speak through anyone who is not a Christian.
