| I don't think one has to engage in religion to appreciate the teachings attributed to Jesus -- or the aforementioned Buddha or Lao Tsu.
I'm not talking about God and metaphysics here -- I used to be an atheist until I realized that was every bit as much a leap of faith as theism, now you'd have to say I'm an agnostic, I guess. No, I'm talking about a basic, pragmatic, practical approach to life and specifically dealing with fellow humans. |
