In the movie, "The Doors," Jim Morrison says, "People are looking for something sacred." The plains indians considered the bison sacred as many people consider the animals and plants they kill and eat sacred, so what is sacred to you?
The concepts of justice and equality.
life as it is a gift from God.
For the first time ever, I have to agree with raheel on this one.
so you do believe in God!
Don't get excited raheel...I meant life :wink:
what do you mean?!
how can you find life sacred if you don't believe in some kind of superior being?
the whole point of sacredness is that it is holy and it is holy because it is from God.
Nothing is sacred.
Wanna hear my dead pope jokes ?
What is sacred to me? Three guesses what I'm about to say...
Efficiency.
Anything we kill is sacred.
Afterwards. Just to make us feel guilty
and want to do better next time.

Sure... I'd tell my SIDS and cotdeath jokes but I don't want to take away my last vestiges of reputation for tact.

why? efficiency is important but surely not sacred! :wink:
"And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it."

Clearly you're not as obsessive compulsive as I am. :wink:
I said sacred to me. I don't expect others to necessarily agree.

ok! although I am a Roman Catholic...
I'm a Roamin' Catholic, as well, one who has wandered very far from the fold indeed, and destined never to return . . .
Is that right next to
Purgatory (Maine),
or upstream along the river
Styx (Texas)?
I get my geography mixed up sometimes, and only mapquest.com can show me the way.
All I really know for sure is that there are six states of Bliss:
Idaho,
Michigan,
Nevada,
Wyoming,
Kentucky, and
Montana.
Anything else, that's not revealed to us by the word of the internet . . . doesn't empirically exist.
