Greetings Clark and Community,

I had the fortune of being brought up under several different "faiths"...a few branches of Christianity, as well as the Jewish faith, for a time. (due to a divorce when I was very young.)

As a child I was forced to attend church and never felt comfortable with the premise of 'worship'...as you mentioned. As I live and learn, I have come to realize a few major flaws with all organized religions...they all seem to ignore pertinent facts, in some form or other. For instance, how old is this planet...really? I've discussed this matter with gentlemen and women who knock on my door trying to persuade me to save myself by joining them...they say the Earth is only 6k years old at most....c'mon?
Anyway...I find it interesting that you notice all these 'religious' aspects as you peruse these pages...while I notice none of them (until they are pointed out).

I guess it just shows how we all see things individually.
I currently "worship" the universe, and give thanks daily for each moment I am granted.

All Love.
