This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for May 08, 2008:
I guess I will answer this without too much parsing of language. I get quotes from Neale Donald Walsh all the time from this site, yet I see the admins still usiing 'want', 'need', and the like. I want for nothing. I desire to live in a world wherein the judgement of a person's "morals" is not based on a particular religion, but on a reasoned verifiabe ethical standard. The question , "Does it work?" comes to mind in this discussion of the ethical standard. That, of course, requires a person who is truly seeking to explore some very basic and primal definitions. My ethical standard came from spending five years contemplating the question, "What if everything I thought was right, is wrong?" and the corollary "What if everything I thought was wrong, is right?" Note that the loaded language of right and wrong were use in these questions purposely. I desire to live in a world wherin every person had done this and honestly come out the other side. The twelve people, from many walks of life and traditions, that I have seen do this, all came to identical conclusions of the ethical standard.
