Religion

Religion provides the braces and crutches…
the support mechanisms…

to enable the spiritual introduction, development, and illumination for propping up the young Believer...

as he initially emerges and unfolds his sense of individual spiritual responsibility and identity…


But can, if continued reliance is allowed and dependence is established…

create an atrophied “failure to develop” that will result in that Believer becoming a retarded Spiritual Cripple.

We each have to find our own way. Thank you for the reminder.

It's all about Individual responsibility... seems that we always get back to that doesn't it?
