I think I want to start a new religion. I think this is because I've been reading too much Umberto Eco lately. Have I told you this before? I've definitely thought about it before, but the feeling comes and goes. The dogmas of my religion, such as they are, will be two simple rules: 1) Nobody is definitely right about any given subject or belief. Especially belief. 2) And especially you and me. We can preach to people that nobody has the answer. If someone says that they know the secret of eternal life, that killing lots of people will take you to paradise, or that God needs a lot of money sent to a certain box number, then they might not be right. Then again, they might all be right. Is it true, or is it false? We Just Don't Know. (of course, you have to keep your tongue in your cheek some of the time. Or mine, if you like. Every religion should have a sense of humour) I suppose the main point is: don't believe your teachers just because they're your teachers. Everyone is wrong, sometimes. Believe the people who make sense. In other news: hugs to idleberry. I know what you need to cheer yourself up - a picnic! And luckily, there is one. See all you scottish people on Monday. (I know this post is short, but it still took me over fifteen minutes to write) love xx caitlin http://www.btinternet.com/~wpsalt/ +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
