You should have read from Dianetics. I bet that would've gone over well.

Thats a bit overly simplistic dont you think? It doesnt just rip on Christians for living life by a set of rules, it denounces Christianity for the supressions on 'real life' and its emphasis on guilt and abstinence. It celebrates a human beings inner desires and individuality. It is basically the antithesis to the Christian conventions, with a heavy influence from Crowley and Nietzsche.

I think some of it make sense, i take issue with a lot of Christian moralism. Yet some of it is utter tosh. If i was to pick a religious text it would have to be Buddhist based, the Tao Te Ching, Sutta Pitaka or Abhidhamma Pitaka perhaps

Um, not exactly what I was getting at but okay. I've just yet to read William Blake's thoughts on Jerusalem and Lord Byron's So, we'll go crucifying no more that's all.

I liked the old testament, the imagery and story are beautiful. The Koran, also.

Completely off-topic, but it's nice to see someone else who knows Yndi Halda and Fly Pan Am.

I am referring to the fact that romantic literature contains a hero who shows the best that mankind can be.
