TEN not so bad IDEAS

For the 21st Century

Anything a clergyman says is probably false;

Faith is not only the worst attribute a person can have, more oft than not it is also the most dangerous;

Humankind is but a small part of the web of life, but what we do to any other part of that web weighs heavily on our survival;

We are made of Star Dust, if we live our lives in celebration of that fact the World will be an infinitely better place.
