A SPIRITUAL
WEB LOG
Last additions 12 Aug 05 starting at #127
Predominantly comprised of emails I have written on spiritual
topics.
Parts of the emails of others are often included. These are all emails that
are already in the public domain via a public email mailing list, so I have
assumed that it is OK to do this. It would make the website construction
process too laborious to ask permission of everyone that I have quoted. If
anyone doesn't want their public emails reused in this way, please
let me know and I will remove the offending bits.
New posts will be continually entered at the end of the list.
Lately I have been writing a lot less and
tend to save up interesting stuff to put a number of entries in at once
at fairly long intervals.
