Wall Switch 2 Black Wires 1 Red

of the eternal return of enlightened men

This Stage Door is one of the most inspired songs of the post Battiato The umbrella and the sewing machine . It fully describes my state of total sadness.


I seem to travel in rarefied areas of thought, where it matures
my disposition to experience that intoxicates
of styles and disciplines.
In a series of parks
mocking cravings,
celebrate my pride my senses my uniqueness.

were days of depression and fatigue absurd,
a total lack of clarity.
When you get in some strange bed,
what you did and why live in such strangeness.

know that pain that sees the existence
black black where there is none.
The fact is that I can not go back
that I can not live with you or without you, believe me
.

But I want to be an eagle
see the plan of the world tilts toward us and the laws
bow
throw me to chase your powers and solemn desert


golden doors and begin again the journey.

What Is The New Poptropica



Fortunately, there are more enlightened people. Despite of holding high office, religious leaders are not always bright: often get the impression that their vocation is formed dogmas touting instead devoted their contemplation, the mystery dogmas that surround them . If that were the case, if they show us that these dogmas, precepts, rules are set arbitrarily, but worthy of being followed, contemplate, ponder for a lifetime, if you take this position, in fact, who fervent dedication to the spiritual life and accept the mysteries as abstruse and irrational, then you earn the respect of all. In the ecclesiastical hierarchies, however, does everything to state emphatically the obligation, demystifying of fact. But think what would sound ridiculous on a discussion between an agnostic and transustansazione What the Pope, the Pope might use arguments to convince the audience that every Sunday is the miracle of transformation from bread and wine into the Body and Blood? Could perhaps the Pope in person, or a dialectical view, to convince anyone of the truth of this dogma? If the Pope began to discuss the practical aspects the miracle, did not escape. If you astraesse and have all the meaning of tradition, would avoid the wretched figure. But our spiritual guides, alas, do nothing. On serious issues, on which they have an opinion (we admit as well) respectable, discuss what you have and what you should not do. Are covered with ridicule, because they have no logical arguments, but only a priori. Respectable, yes, but a priori.
Fortunately, there are exceptions. Carlo Maria Martini of these figures is a spiritually elevated. In the last conclave he was a favorite hound German. Martini always knows how to talk to who does not believe, because he is a man who probably doubted. It can not be reassured by the dogma. If it does not shield. It covers the beauty and spirituality. I read a book a few years ago, and I was ecstatic.
