It is not nearly enough for me to listen to a human coach me on how to find this &#8220;God&#8221; or greater power, or even worse, tell me what is right or wrong in the eyes of the greatest one. I am not very\u00a0religious\u00a0either, and though I do have tolerance for most religions, I do this is where I feel they went wrong, especially when striving to pull new blood into their circle. We have all be born with are own minds, hearts, conscience, and should be able to do whatever we feel with them.

These things are precious to every human, and when told how to use them, or that they&#8217;re not functioning correctly, is something that can drive even the most open person on the planet away.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211; Sometimes I wonder how\u00a0aesthetics\u00a0can possibly cope with themselves and not\u00a0believing\u00a0in \u00a0a greater power, or for that matter,\u00a0believing\u00a0in something that has merely been\u00a0developed\u00a0by in-perfect humans, without even striving to believe in something they can discover for themselves.
