No religion is entirely wrong.
And no religion is entirely right.
Each faith tradition,
those that have passed on
and those that live on,
are an attempt to organize
something around
the mystery.
Religion is not entirely all good
or all bad.
Religions, at their best, are vessels
that carry an essence.
At their worst, religions are used as structures
to build and destroy perceptions of power.
And yet there is something unknowable
that is always ever present.
And once perceived directly,
faith is no longer needed.
Once perceived directly,
religion is optional,
but not required.
Peace,
