6 mins..666...assasin...sh ould i worry?
Unfortunately, there's no red lipstick 'n trenchcoat, switch-trains-in-Paris intrigue/assassin stuff in my life...
I only know that assassin story from an ethics-related class where we read about a constitutional right to publish "killer's handbook" landmark case. Someone actually had the book and that was the only part of the "hints and tips" section I remember...(probably a good thing
in jewish religion and islam they get to go to heaven if they lived a good life..(i could be wrong on that...i usually make this stuff up as i go along )
(I wonder about that occasionally.) I think that it's true. Am lutheran protestant myself and like many christians am woefully ignorant of other religions. I do believe that in the jewish faith there are 600 some odd "mitzvahs" that one must try to complete in a lifetime. In the high five is anonymous giving...and I believe it is written "and honor will come in the end." I think in the muslim faith it is against the rules to ask for interest when lending money. Giving should be without strings. The major tenet in christian teaching is altruism as well. So the big "three" all teach altruism, obviously a major factor benefiting the perpetuation of our species, and yet all these religions really seem to contribute is in helping us keep our herd numbers down. Ironic, that.
Because it is raining outside, I sit here and ask myself questions...
