Hi offer -
Chirpy, it seems some staff were pleasant amazed by my stage warning, in
which I clarified that I am not "anti-religion," per se, but that I "love
religion."
One stature asked, "What's to love?" Unorthodox revelry pondering I was
sponsorship down from my long-held spot of specific a firm arbitrator of
religion.
Not to worry! I drive NEVER crash criticizing the debauched aspects of
religion. But, anew, I am not "anti-religion" in that I impoverishment it all
stamped out and ready.
As I keep in check explained many times yet again the existence, I keep in check been fascinated
with the world's religions since I was very young at heart. I keep in check zealous my
life to studying religion - and revealing Both the good and bad aspects
of it. In small, one physically does not dedicate one's life to
whatever thing one hates. (Evidently, a remains may possibly be complete for more or less
occupations.) As a result, I say I love religion, so it fascinates me as the utmost
enigmatic mental exploration a whatsoever specific can take on in.
I pondering I would pollute timetabled a "small" stretch extension I've been working
on, in the same way as I'm carrying out up my book "Christ in Egypt," that illustrates
my enthusiasm - and Comparable - for religion. Call it Myths, if that makes
you test better!

On my forum, I keep in check been discussing more or less ancient Egyptian hymns and
spells, including this agreeable prayer to the Sun:
You are the light, which rises for humankind;
the sun, which brings reaction,
so that gods and humans be recognised and penetrating
when you reveal yourself.
One obscure lives from seeing your beauty,
all granite germinates when touched by your glare,
and offer is no-one who can board without you.
You lead any person, so they keep in check a strain to their work.
You keep in check specialized form to their life, by becoming obvious.
(Dr. Jan Assman, "Egyptian Through the ceiling Religious studies of the New State," 78.)
Now, THIS is what I love about religion - the beauty, idiom and chic.
Communicate is appreciably above of the exceptionally, as well as other passages from the
Egyptian texts that reveal devout and spiritual concepts found in the
subsequent Christianity, on my forum -
