The Religion of Sin



You missed the mark and you shall be punished! 

A Sin is an archery term. When you miss your mark you have sinned. In archery there is no punishment...there is only practice. 


What is the aim of life? 


A practice of a good life is where we should aim. We practice religion. We practice medicine. We practice being good. None of us are Masters. 

Many seem to think of medicine as being all knowing but they are just practicing. They don't know everything and they are still learning always trying to hit the mark; they are practicing on you. That's why we get second and third opinions from others that also practice medicine...some are better then others. Some hit the mark more often then others. Aren't we lucky to have choices in our medical opinion world where they are just practicing...or do we any more? I saw somewhere the other day that there was a consensus of Scientists regarding some matter...except that would not be science...that would be something completely different then science. That would be a religion, a dogma where it is a sin not to think like others; literally modern day heretics. 

We can see with our own eyes those that hit the mark and those that don't...those being doctors, or preachers or the archer. I just realized as I reread this that most people actually don't know when a doctor or preacher misses their mark, they do not know what they do not know.  

What is a sin these days to some? Not doing what someone else says is 'right'? Oh, you didn't wear your mask right let me point to you and call you out for your sin. Meanwhile I have no intention of hitting your mark. I'm not even at the same match as you. 

It is a sin to not know life is hard work. All the time. You should take a break once a week but even on that day some things must get done. (This is for my Old Testament friends.)

Envy and Blame are a sin. It was Cain and Abel. It's a story to teach you the dangers of Envy and Blame, of those that are ABLE to do something you expect for yourself without hard work and knowledge that life is full of challenges, some unforeseeable. Expect hardships, that is life. It is hard. That is why we have rules to live by that can help us in the bad times. The heavy rains that flood the ground...You can start over...it just takes work and you should prepare. That is the story of all People; the floods that come, that always have. We are supposed to learn from both the story of Cain and Abel and from Noah...one is a parable of human behavior. The other is something that always happens on this planet.  

It is a sin to mark others because you have bad aim at the goodness in life and the knowledge that life is hard work.


There is no cure for sin, only practice- that is a tenet of my life. 


Be still and listen

One day I will tell you a story


Ableist...they call people that name in a derogatory way, you should pay attention these things because they are a tel tell sign. People that are Abel to do for themselves are the Blame for anothers misfortune when that is not true. 




The Art of Kintsugi. It is the art of taking a bowl that is broken and making it more beautiful then it ever had been with all it's flaws glued together....with the Gold pill
