Angry God=Angry people living in fear

I believe in visualisations, manifestations...wanting things so much that you can make it happen, having friends/family/lovers send energy to you for healings...I believe there are many things we don't know...but I'm irritated by the thought that people believe there's a paternal "god" who takes care of his "children"...especially if that "god" said and did everything that was attributed to him in the old testament. Some uptight old dude on a throne with a long white beard and a stern, set jaw. I'm not a fan of the Abrahamic religions, I've mentioned that before. I also believe that we make feeble attempts to explain the unexplainable, know the unknowable...and yes, to believe the unbelievable. We've been through this before, though. My opinions are nothing new. I believe in the power of crystals...as a fact, that's how we get our electricity here. I believe in the healing ability of our bodies and the use of herbs and food as medicine. I believe stress and fear can wreak havoc on one's body, community, relationships, nation, economy (personal and global), and can (ultimately) cause dis-ease and death. I find comfort that I don't and can't know TRUTH with a capital T...let the mystery be...and breathe, breathe, breathe...exhale. The breath of life.

  Let's face it. This nation was not built on love and hope and equality, it was forged from blood, oil, extraction, genocide, slavery,...
