Repellant, really"</I><BR/><BR/>DeepAct is simply branding, franchising, and capitalizing, B'aab. Not on God, which is probably impossible, but on his particular view of God. (Maybe you're familiar with the practice?) Which leads to profits, which leads to jobs, which leads those with a work ethic to life lessons, perhaps a higher sense of purpose or even a sense of purpose to begin with, blah blah b'ahh, even unto your blog, Amen. What's good enough for Exxon/Mobile ought not be condemned for little DeepAct, all things considered. I'd lots rather find out my niece is making a living stuffing envelopes for DeepAct instead of ferreting out the few remaining moist pockets in the earth's crust. I find the record profits publicly posted by oil companies in the face of this recent price hike far more repellant than someone making a living off of their point of view. Am I missing some point?<BR/><BR/>It's this kind of perceived doublestink that, speaking in general terms, coons seem to be blind to. It's as if a good jibe is better than some open thinking. I see it constantly in your thought, yet usually don't want to dive into the hairpulling and namecalling that would result if I point it out. That, plus I work for a living. It's easier to dump it and keep panning for flakes and nuggets.<BR/><BR/>Van asks, why come back? Because I'm a fan, B'aab. Because I do value your insights and your spiritual off-road excursions. That's why I rail when I see you drop in the autopilot so you can wave at the fans as you drive by. If you can't see the rock star aspect of your personality coming to the forefront, email River on the reasons he's tapering off his own blogging. See if there's anything there. Just a hunch, but hey. I'm not claiming any private conduit to The Truth, other than my open heart and mind. You and Oral Roberts (and Jim Jones) may hear from God privately and directly. Not me, not so far.<BR/><BR/>Look at the fruits of your labor. Is there some charitable side I'm missing? Are you spreading the fruits of Your Truth in some sidebar I haven't found? Isn't God Infinite, and wouldn't that energy, manifesting itself through opened and opening minds result in something more than a churlish band of wordsmiths hammering out their dogma daily on a blog?<BR/><BR/>Where does this bindness come from? The pride of coons is what I come up with, starting from the top down. I tried to point out yesterday that in man's 100,000 year pleasure cruise toward a readiness to "assimilate the revelation of truth" you alluded to, you've only been maybe 20 years out of the exact opposite line of your current hardline of thinking. Imagine what another five might do. Especially if the ego stays out of the way. Or you could spend them like you've spent the last two, busy defending what you are absolutely sure is The Only Way. The very practice of blogging itself, then of naming, staking out, and defending one's turf in a chat room format becomes no less or more than the watercooler banter corporate democrats start looking forward to in place of their actual jobs. The ego becomes the thing. <BR/><BR/>Give me a home where anonymous can roam, where I feel free to explore and defend, to engage and slink away beaten, or to engage and clasp arms with the opposing side afterward, realizing we are more kindred than I first realized. <BR/><BR/>That's all I have time for. Light me up, coons. I'll check back later. I just wanted to assure you that I'm still reading.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
