    by Nick Heywood Watched a show on Queen Elizabeth. And in a particular scene, she had Rev Graham to the palace after watching a few preachings on TV. She explained how she felt so lonely. And was wondering if he understood and could offer any advice. He, naturally, humbled himself. 🙂 And to paraphrase… You’re the head of the Church of of England. Theres the Church and it’s hierarchy and teaching, then you, then God. How is it possible to not feel lonely? It’s not possible for me to empathize. I’m just a Man. I thought that a brilliant explanation of what a monarchy is supposed to be. Some sort of wise archetype. Decider of last resort. etc etc. And yes. That’d be f’n lonely! And bloody good reasoning for a monarchy. Still don’t like the idea. But I think that’s just me hanging onto “Rebel” 🙂

  • Why Are More People Not Drawn To Spiritual Practice?

    Um. Because it’s bad for them.

    There are many other methods of obtaining mindfulness that do not require lying. Spirituality is merely a ‘pseudoscientific’ term for ‘mindfulness by self deception’.

    We all need mindfulness. We all seek it by different means. It turns out that the worst possible means is religion.

  • Is Religion Necessary For The Individual?

    Mindfulness is necessary. Religion provides us with mindfulness in the personal, interpersonal, social, and political realms by the use of ritual, feast, festival, and myth. There are biological and circumstantial reasons why we need mindfulness in a world no longer consisting of hunter gatherer bands.

    The problem, religion is the ABSOLUTE WORST POSSIBLE way of achieving mindfulness. And of the worst possible kinds, Abrahamic Monotheism is the ABSOLUTE WORST POSSIBLE religion.
