Three palms stand silent as pillars in a ruin; this pagan temple |

the whole world seems to be a pagan temple these days don't know what you intended with this, but this is what it made me think..at least it cured my numb mind. *sigh* 'tis but a temporary clarity. Insomnia and stress makes things fuzzy you know? All of my impurities are right here on my sleeve. This is Me"---Faith Hill |

Well, Temptress, pagan is a popular thing to be these days, and there's a lot validity to it -- I've experienced it first-hand. But the way it's done these days, mainly for fun, isn't square with reality. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> ______________Ratleader______________ [This message has been edited by Ratleader (12-03-2003 10:41 AM).] |
