What annoys me about the term
New Age is how it gets a 'Bad Rap'.
People will simply throw EVERYthing into that catagory and call it New Age.
ANYthing that is not Religious or follows some Organized Christian Religion/Dogma/Doctrine.
Or lable people 'New Agers'.
I have been labled that many times. I am NOT a New Ager!
I even been told what I share is simply Propaganda and not truth.
Mostly by very religious people.
Very closed minded religious people I might add....
It is used in a derogitory fashion no different then how the term Liberal is used.
As IF all people that have liberal leanings are BAD, or stoopid!
I personally get real tired of lables like this.
When I tell people I am NOT religious they will then ask me why I do not believe in GOD. [groan]
I never SAID that.
I do not believe in a Zeus type God. I believe there is a
Source of ALL Things.
I do not believe in a 'God' that is an old white man when a long beard sitting on a throne with a book in his hand that says if I am Naughty or Nice.
If I am Naughty then I get a zap from a lightening bolt and sent to some form of Hell.
If I am Nice then I am deemed 'special' and I get a Special Place to go.
I do not believe in that. I think that is silly!
To me to put 'God' or as I just stated
The Source of ALL Things in a box like that actually limits any being of that sort.
AND..Of course *I* am still 'LEARNING' about this. I never will say I have ALL the answers.
I am still forming the questions.
The Source of ALL Things is NOT HUMAN...nor has a Human Face or Human like Emotions.
Nor can
The Source of ALL Things have ANY HATE within.
It is a Being of absolute pure love.
The Source of ALL Things just IS! The true/pure form of BE-ING!
