Kenpo,
Have you read the theories concerning ergot poisening in relation to the Salem trials?
Interesting stuff!
mac
has anyone ever studied the salem witch hunts and trails.
what i found interesting about these, is how people who claimed to be peaceful, could get so riled up, that they were willing to kill people.
the spark that lit the fire was often a rumor or false accusations that got out of hand, or perhaps a misunderstanding on a issue or people thinking they saw something they didn't.
glad you had a wonderful trip!!!
happy birthday on monday!!!!!!
many hugs-welcome home .

truthseeker and i are going to add her to our wish we could rub on that dub list.. speaking of dubs i like to rub, where in the hell is chevy??
anybody seen that girl lately???.
so many new people... but it seems so many people are gone and the threads whiz by so fast i can't keep track.
mostly tho, i am jsut over the dubs.
but lately, i find myself missing the old board, the way things were.
it is amazing how far feched and distorted somepeoples views are.
what do you think of dragons post from beyond the watchtower?
can someone else take a stab at this one, im curious to see you thoughts on his post.
i'm always looking for new music and the best place i've found by the recommendation of others.
maybe we could list our favorite genre(s) and list some of the bands we have found to be good.
kenny neal.
i have a lot of friends in my life.
some are real close and some are casual friends.
in all, i still enjoy my connection with them and i enjoy the time i get to spend with them.
kenpo,
I,ve of't times mused over the fact that the qualities attributed to the god of the bible, if manifested and practiced by us, (those created in his image) would be reason for reprehensibility.
I believe there is a universal intelligence, and that we are all intrinsicaly linked to it, just as drops of water, that when returned to the ocean, become part of the whole again. I no longer feel the need to put all things in a neat little box for my own comfort.I am content not to know. Yet, i remain open to the answers!

who of you are writers out there?.
since being a child, people have responded positively to my writing.
i've written countless items of poetry, but never let them out into the public domain.
Sirona,
In the span of time, there is only one you! Your expressions reflect your life force and vitality and if you hold them back, will never exist in another medium. They will have been lost. The world will have been deprived.
I've recently concluded that it may not be our place to assess how good it is, or of what worth it is, or how it compares to the works of others. I,ve never known an artist or writer to be pleased with his own work. This has always been true for me. But there is an aliveness in this magnificent dissatisfaction!!
You don,t have to believe in your own work, but you must keep the channels open at all cost. You just may be amazed at the outcome!

recently i was watching a documentary on this woman who claimed that she could heal people with the power of her mind.
the documentary went into interviewing people about their experiences, and many of them actually had medical signs of improvement that could be documented and shown.
while watching this, i was seeing it as a example of psychic energy healing someone?
you are my wizard.
thru smoke and by mirrors.
your logic defies for me.
