ex-l, in the original post I did not use nor did I imply the word 'more'. Neither was/is the word 'more' necessary in my original post. It is not necessary as a qualifier nor is it necessary as a comparator nor is it necessary as a form of emphasis - this is the point I am making. Your use of the word 'more' completely takes us away from the simple statement that I made and whatever spin I choose to put on it that inclusion misrepresents my simple statement - that's all ex-l.
You then clarify by typing >>"I meant "more naturally religious than they are". "Or appear to me", if you wish to look at it subjectively."
What does "more naturally religious than they are" mean? Is it like I might say since leaving the BKWSU I have become "more" African in my outlook than I am/I was/I appear to be when looked at by another or indeed by myself?
As is to be expected, I can clearly see that though we have both left the BKs, we are not only vastly different ex-BKs but we are also vastly different humans - nothing earth shattering in that. I seem to recall that as a BK student there was the teaching that 'there is benefit in everything'; and so I hope that I have left the BKs and 're-joined' the rest of the human race as an expression of my development and natural, eternal love for my fellow humans.
I joined this website with a lot of joy in my Being and so I readily, naturally admit that am not here to fight with anyone over anything. As my BK days drift further and further into my past it becomes relatively easy for me to see what I may be against (at any particular moment in time). Which perhaps reveals the more profound question of how and where will I find what to be? And what to be for? ...
And having just typed that last question a possible answer rang like a wee small bell, plain and simply in my head.
OM! aka "I AM" aka simply be.
Thank you ex-l
