Nice Effects and at least you were listening to what he said to you long ago and it stuck with you all these years...... The Journey is always the best part of every story and what makes the individual what he or she becomes over time & trama ......Perspective is Everything.
Some things are never forgotten. Fire and brimstone were often subjects we were assaulted with. Fear is a powerful weapon that the priests and nuns were very good at using.
Yes, the journey is what makes a person who they are.

This picture begs to be converted to B&W. Try it!
But then it would have a different story. I have other versions, some b/w, but the way it was posted brought out the story that I had buried in my brain.

Because "Love one another" doesn't allow for some people to control other people. Religions are all about controlling the actions and beliefs of others for the benefit of the controllers. And so, the more difficult it is to decipher, the easier the control. Those who know little will accept the most ridiculous ideas.
