There are about 3.7 million Christian churches in the world, and about two thirds as many synagogues. Wouldn't all that space be better left to nature? Your God can hear you within your walls, you don't need holy walls to speak to the Creator.

It's a silly tradition, to build temples around your faith. If it's so flimsy it needs a house around it, then maybe your faith's not worth having. And no matter the size, false idols are false idols.

I'll be gone for a couple days. Personal business.

	I go to temple mostly for the friendships and sense of community. I know that She can hear me wherever I go. For me it's a house of love. Humans need that. I like mine, too, it's not fancy or anything at all like that. (Reply to this) (Thread)

Pardon for the slow response, I had a mad Creator to address.

If you wanted community, why not do as they did before your time, and worship with each other in your homes, in your community centers, in the parks or in the woods? There are no limits to exploring the community and... God's graces, yet your kind cloisters itself into sterile environments that show that truly, in those buildings, the only love is the love between your own kind.

	People don't really like doing that anymore. I like the idea of worshiping at home, but a lot of people aren't comfortable with that. I go to a few people's houses, though! Honestly, I feel closest to Her when I'm helping out. The little ones and I help at a battered women's shelter. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If you're part of such a snug community, why would those people be so hesitant to invite you and others into their home? You especially, Mary, you have not a single thing to show as impurity. ~~There's no wonder about Lucifer's attachment to you, dear.~~ And She's around. Being close to Her would be a simple portkey to Vatican city. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's mostly the people allergic to cats. Toby found a bunch of strays and we had to keep them all. Eight cats and two kids and a pregnant woman is a bit much for most people. I know, but the connection's more than just her, I think. I think it's being connected to everything. You, me, trees, water - I just feel like a part of the world and love it so much.

	How can you feel connected to nature when you wall yourself away from it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Of course they weren't, they were following me. Perhaps I will have a temple built for me in Greece again. I've spent too long here in Korea. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Bah. You're probably right. My family can not think for themselves. I am bored with this life. There is no war, except boring ones my sister runs. I am no longer allowed virgins, nor am I allowed to lay waste to countries with these bombs I covet. What is the point of having these if I can't USE THEM, I ask? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I suppose you could set them off at the moon? Who needs that silly thing, anyway. You never were one for patience, Ares. I suppose that makes you and I kindred spirits in a way. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
