Last week I went to lunch with my oldest sister Aj. We went to the Russian Tea Room where my favorite psychic Darryl reads palms and tarot cards. I turned 22 at the end of August and I was curious to know how where my life path was directed, now that I am clean & sober. He said that I am on a very spiritual path. In the past I may have been afraid of my talents because of the great responsibility they would place on me, but now I am more prepared to accept them. My intuition is a bit keener than usual. My dreams are very vivid.
I'd like to communicate further that it is not just the claims of religion which I do not accept, but all supernatural claims. Richard Dawkins has made a two-part film called "The Enemies of Reason" which can be viewed on-line. Here's part one:
Having immersed myself in the literature of emerging, I now feel better about my place in the Christian Church, specificially the United Church. Although I grew up with the traditional beliefs, I gradually realized, now at the age of 63 that I choose not to believe in the supernatural aspects of our "faith" - that Jesus was the "son of God" who, after his crucifixion, rose from the dead, appeared to the faithful and ascended into heaven..etc.
