Wasn’t it Ephasus that had temples for all the gods and one for the Unknown? Seems like we need more missionaries in our cities to teach the foreigners who come here to live.

If I stand on my head, can I heal my pelvic ceiling?

Well if it’s all the same, I’ll stick with the Church of Ba’al Moloch (Reformed).

where hot and healing water bubbles out of a geothermal spring into baths that offer the world's best in-tub views. Here the worshippers give and get massages au naturel

Stewing naked in hot water, with numerous stewing, naked strangers, is not exactly a recipe for "healing." It's a nice environment for growing bacteria, though.

“When the French monarch proposed the persecution of Christians in his dominion, an old statesman and warrior said to him, ‘Sire, the church of God is an anvil that has worn out many hammers.’ So the hammers of infidels have been pecking away at this book for ages, but the hammers are worn out, and the anvil still endures. If this book had not been the book of God, men would have destroyed it long ago. Emperors and popes, kings and priests, princes and rulers have all tried their hand at it; they die and the book still lives.”

“No other book has been so chopped, knived, sifted, scrutinized, and vilified. What book on philosophy or religion or psychology or belles lettres of classical or modern times has been subject to such a mass attack as the Bible? With such venom and skepticism? With such thoroughness and erudition? Upon every chapter, line and tenet? The Bible is still loved by millions, and studied by millions.

All forms of paganism (including today’s environmental movement) boil down to one thing: the worship of nature. It comes in the form of exalting trees, plants, animals, weather, astronomical objects, etc. The wiccan movement, druidism, astrology and the most radical tenets of the environmental movement are forms of paganism.

St Paul the Apostle once wrote of this (way back when): “Behold they have exchanged the Truth for a lie and worshiped the creation rather than the Creator.”

Some of them are in yoga studios, wearing prAna-branded stretch pants and chanting “Om”. Others are in spas and retreats, getting exotic massages; queuing at the Ayurvedic and Chinese-medicine counter at, say, Elephant Pharmacy in Berkeley; in psychotherapy sessions, to improve themselves or their marriages. If asked about their faith, many would answer that they are “spiritual, but not religious”.

Courtesy comment from St. Peter The Gate Keep to Heaven.

Knock Knock Knockin on my door.

Whoop Dat knockin at my door

Ye Ole Spiritual but not Religious dead person.

Well ye ole Spiritual but not Religious dead person.

Yallins took the eternity elevator and pushed the up instead of the down button.

Now go back down and spend eternity in Hell with all the other Spiritual but not Religious forsaken.
