lets build a bridge
    #5146865 - 01/06/06 01:01 PM (18 years, 2 months ago)

Between, the ways of the I Ching and the Bible. Lets break down the walls of east and west. Lets not fall into a religion foreign to the one thats in our blood and heritage. Lets understand and build one from the two. One cant understand what he isn't one cant cast away what he is. One can learn and use them both as tools for higher learning and understanding. So lets.

Yes we push away the thought of the catholic church and Christianity. We look towards the peaceful sages of the mountain tops of the east. Knowing all they know yet not acting on what they know in the ways that the west does in conquest.

People take the idea of con-questing and missions to literally in the fact that they must overcome what is natural, and force upon something that is foreign. They took the personal conquest and made it a team effort which then looses its importance.

So lets build a bridge over this abyss the cleavage between the two. Lets find a way to be romantic yet classical.

And how do you propose to do this? While a few have always been open to the Gnostic message of Christianity. Most are blind and aim to stay so.

Well that's the deal brother. You can have much influence changing yourself. To change others is an exercise in futility.

I'm just saying that in general. I work (a little). A farm unless it's not a working one is a lot of toil. I know from experience.

I think this is actually happening naturally (although slowly) through globalization.

The people that refuse to change, I think are immature and acting like cliques in high school. They way you change their minds, is by breaking the hypnotic trance they are in, and making a new one. The only way to do this is change one person at a time, and be very persuasive. Once you change the minds of certain people.....many are likely to follow their lead.

I have worked on farms since i was 13. Never owned one though. Its a lot of planing and a lot of suprises.
