Caption: It was an amazing experience to read these work of what I consider to come from intelligent individuals. What is more amazing is that you guys have so much knowledge and no wisdom. Knowledge come from reading books, but wisdom comes from a personal relationship with the creator, Jesus Christ. You are under the impression that what we have are myths. I know that you believe the Bible to be a myth also. Jesus is the source of life, and I know that. He died to pardon your sins and mine. I will refrain from trying to make a believer of you because I know that truth is not dependent on how many people believe it. I will keep this to myself. But I will leave this with you guys. After death, comes the judgment. Typically you will respond with ‘Bring it on, I’m not scared.’ But my intensions are not to scare but to inform. I will be praying for you guys, it’s the least I could do. I know that if you guys knew Who (Christ) the source of life was you would inform me too.

Caption: I have always felt that faith was a necessary science of its own. For human kind to evolve the respect, courage and ignorances were often overcome by faith in comming together as a small group or a bigger community. To me each locality has built its culture around its environment. Each faith has evolved to support its people and place of residence. BUT this faith was and is necessary to live, communicate, and be involved within each locality, still to this day. As I have said, I believe religion or God is a creation of human kind, and very necessary for complete evolution of our species. And I believe this faith or God like faith is still necessary, since we live in such troubled times, to accept as an evolutionist and environmentalist or a God fearing human being AND evolutionist. How I cope is with others. I often act a fool or plateau to find a fool (myself, of course), and others come to offer me a ray of love. All things are mostly endurable as long as one (me) tries to work, improve, listen, and observe.

Caption: Myths are mysteries of stories left without the full accounts of what and/or whom they tell us. For instance; One myth would be that of Genesis, chapter 6. When the son of God married the daughters of man. to whom the bible refers to also as the fallen angels? Couldn't they also have been the names of such as Hercules,Thor,Atlas,etc? To me, Myths are attempted answers of our unanswered thoughts or questions to satisfy our minds.

Caption: Hooray!! And to take it one step further. It is OK not to know, not to explain everything. By doing that I believe we dimminish the amazing qualities of what we are trying to reason away so it will fit in our finite minds. Some need the comfort of having answers to all the questions, to not do so scares them. Pema Chodron, last week's guest explained the 'groundlessness' we feel when stress, pain, events that cause an unknown in our lives. She said that we need to 'BE' in that state, to not react from learned habits or instincts, become peaceful within because struggle and suffering stem from our habitual reactions to pain. That was amazing insite. To feel that we don't need to explain or react to everything seems very freeing to me. And I also feel that ALL religions stem from that NEED to explain that mythology does so blatantly. They are only different because of the regional cultures they were developed in and the desire to exert power over others and 'be right' in a particular belief system. So, spirituality is key to a balanced existence, but religion is throwing a wrench in the works.
