    Laughing at Life

    I just got back from watching the hilarious movie Religulous with Bill Maher. He goes around the world poking fun at the various religions he encounters, from the Trucker Chruch  to the Canabis Ministries in Amsterdam ( Flaming Hair lolz ). He points out the absurdness of their beliefs and their blind faith to them with no evidence what so ever. This got me thinking about my beliefs and how they may sound to someone not familar with my religion. Like you have to admit that believing that the universe as we know it was created by a Goddess that made love to her own reflection that later became the God and her consort does sound a bit crazy. Or what about how the God/dess having a thousand names such as Kali, Diana, or Inanna, and Odin, Pan, Krishna to an outsider it may seem like we worship a God/dess with a Multiply Personality disorder. Can anyone truely say they KNOW their is a God/dess? Or that they KNOW there is a Summerlands to which we go after our passing? No, we can only guess the answers to the Great Mysteries of our world through mere glimpses of the Divine, and mostly through secound- hand accounts.  All paths and religions are mere attemps at expalining the Divine, and as Humans we are naturaly prone to make mistakes. And that is why to me all religions are hilarious, it's like watching a child try to figure out where the people in the T.V. go when it shuts off. And don't get me started about all the people who try to show how much they love God and how much they love they back. Who doesn't crack up when you see a Televanglist babeling away like a baby while "healing the sick" via bonking people on the head. Now look at some of the things we do in our religions like raising a cone of power, or chanting an incantation in a sing-song voice. It's all quite amusing when you truely look at it. Because in the end were just a bunch of children staring at a T.v. asking ourselfs "Where do all the people go when it shuts off??" 

    Blessed be )O(
