Don't mean to sound rude but there's nothing
scarier than someone who holds onto there
religion with a death grip; christian, islam its all the same to me.
i long with you david... and i myself stumble in my own awkward efforts toward freedom, and as you said, we know the fact is that it is
scary to move into freedom... because it is unknown... but i see so many on this newfound road to freedom get trapped in the liminal space of wish - fullfillment community (which actually rather looks like affinity rather
than the hard - won community that comes from communitas)... i'm sure this is going to come off the wrong way, but i'm going to say it anyway: many of the comments seem to be «all about me», and truly that is what
religion is... but not freedom, not the mission of Jesus where you die to yourself by taking up your cross daily... not being centered on the «other» rather
than yourself...
