"In the post-meditative experience become a child of illusion" is a slogan from the Tibetan mind training tradition. We engage the world as we experience it all the while realizing that reality is not as it seems to be.
Wow. Makes me even more grateful for the adults in my childhood who never worried over what John and I were wearing or how we were acting as long as we were respectful and not fighting with one another.
I think the most disturbing part is that people are more likely to take Harris' vitriol to heart because he's a pastor, so they can tell themselves that the church and God are behind them.
I want to know how and why these bigoted, hate-mongers are allowed to continue to preach "in the name of Christ"...it truly sickens me. He and others like him, are the reason that thousands of people, me included, have left the church.
