I Will Not Assocaite Myself With Religion, Or Lack of Religion

I have a cousin who once told me, "Sometimes when we open the doors to our church it stinks to high heaven from the sinners inside."

Her words caused me to reflect that sometimes people who are very religious are trying to overcome great flaws within themselves, hoping that if they work hard enough, they will get into heaven.

And I have made note of the fact that sometimes, (not always), those who pay lip service to their religion and who attend church regularly have never been able to see themselves clearly enough to work on their own flaws.

I am sorry if you were hurt. I know I was.

Life is always but a trick away from any truth. Which does mean in some way, all faiths have the same value as any truth. Any one who pretends to know might as well be the jailer, and anyone who pretends not to know might as well be the inmate. Both have roles in this world. I'm just not sure who the jailer, the bailer, the inmate are any more in context this way. Long short way of saying, just live your life and find out after.

It's true to the best of my knowledge
