Do I sense a bit of frustration Feia?No need to bow out at the moment that you are at your best…At the risk of sounding sexist,I must admit that your feminity was about to win me over…(isn’t the way women win most arguments)…..I truly appreciate your input and ,I’ll bow out also and allow someone else to start a new thread.

Hello,
That feeling of urgency that most of us felt during the last presidential campaign was not something imaginary….It was real back then and is stil real today..The change we felt we needed had a lot to do with getting closer to the truth that lies inside each and everyone of us..We are a people who have learned that it is much nobler to embrace a lie over the truth….For that reason and that reason only,we are on a collision course with what may become our doomsday….If students of the Yogi philosophy are too scared to call a lie a lie when necessary,what sense does it make to claim to be of a different mindset?…I am very disappointed in those of us who are willing to give a free pass to the professional liars and con artists of the religious world..Yoga is about truth and honesty..The practice teaches one to strive to reach the highest point of spiritual connection between one’s self and the rest of the world.Religion on the other hand,uses books full of fairy tales,lies,deceits and false promises to trick us into being confused and crazy peoples….I like to tell people that I have never seen a group of Atheists put on uniforms and armed themselves to the teeth to go kill another group of Atheists…..Religious freaks(I am being mean on purpose)on the other hand,have been killing each other and destroying this beautiful earth ever since one cares to remember..Hell,the bible even calls for the destruction of the planet in order for there to exist a more peaceful life.If such a book was written by a Muslim,I am sure it would be referred to as a terrorist manual calling for the destruction of America…It is my opinion that those of us who are searching for that inner place of strength and courage will never find it until we find the courage to stand up against liars and manipulators,no matter where they come from or what they call themselves….Unless we are willing to do that,we should stop talking about Yoga as a different set of ideas and only think of it just as another form of sweating activity….
Thank you for giving me chance to share my ideas and all direct criticisms are welcomed.
