Holy and Sacred: Turd or Temple

category international | rights, freedoms and repression | other press author Saturday February 25, 2006 14:43author by cleaves Report this post to the editors

The famous Shiite Askariyah shrine (Golden Mosque) in Iraq has been targeted and destroyed but by whom remains unclear at this stage. Regardless of the intentions of those responsible, one dramatic (and historically consistent) point cuts through the hysteria and mayhem. That of the importance (or otherwise) of sites that are deemed sacred or holy and the 'location' of this attribution in human consciousness and/or human societies/groups. Social history records naturally occurring phenomena, rocks, rivers etc; structures built by men, temples, obelisks etc; cyclic astronomical phenomena, eclipses, comets etc, all of which have been attributed by humans with special significance at one time or another, whereas none of these produced or naturally occurring phenomenon are ‘holy’ or ‘sacred’.

where the clever australian looking man gets the simians through a sacred grove which was taboo?
the scary gods killed all who tried to enter, but ozzie figured out it was all about gas. He said give me a clay vessel that I may put it on my head and thus improvise a clean air chamber. And the simians did so, marvelling at how he could tread the sacred grove without being harmed. But then one clever chap an orang utan as it happened posed the question - "who made the first clay vessel? Who thought I'll mix these soils in just the right balance and stick them in a fire of unusual intensity?"
Ozzie would not be deterred, "that was slow and gradual change, over many thousands of years peoples' huts burnt down and their collections of different clays were exposed to heat of unusual intensity, and when eventually by pure chance a receptacle was fired, and the hut owners survived they showed their neighbours how to do it. Oh yes, the paleolithic world was aflame with burning huts as people went from their basic plates up to the milk jug, in no time. And along the way they discovered cooked meat, made the first rudimentary fire extinguishers, the potters' wheel, discovered incense and counted their arms and legs. They decided to build a hut of gold that could not be burnt where the first hut had been. So that all simians and ozzies might remember "you really are not so clever". How wonderful that in today's time of states of emergency in the Phillipines and lots of asian news, there is yet a clever ozzie who will dedicate his output to telling us "religiosity is crap". OH! alas that we don't have the sort of Irish society where he could come back home and explain it to the kiddies. But the Gods in their wisdom, knew about the ozzie, and made allowances for them. Which is why their main tourist attraction as well being sacred and taboo reaks with radiation. So that the silly clever ozzies might live shorter lives and decompose sooner.

Jesus was a poofter! But I personally think he was snogging Magdalene. Does this offend? I'm not an Aussie but I take great pleasure in shitting on ALL Gods. Religion is a disease.
