Friday – Warm Summer – Survivor Song – Viper’s Day

You must Choose Your Own Meaning

We offer a story. We offer a code and a religion. We offer whole system to replace the corrupt system created by our Kings and Priests. But ours is only one way. And is no single right way to live. There are wrong ways. But there is no single right way to live. When Jesus claimed: “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me[,] ” he was revealing a dangerous motivation. These are the claims of a totalist cult leader. These are the claims of somebody who wishes slaves and serfs.  Distrust any story or religion that claims that it alone is the correct way to live. 

You must choose your own way. You must choose your own meaning. We can offer possibilities. But you must choose. 

“It is bad when one thing becomes two. One should not look for anything else in the Way of the Samurai. It is the same for anything that is called a Way. Therefore, it is inconsistent to hear something of the Way of Confucius or the Way of the Buddha, and say that this is the Way of the Samurai. If one understands things in this manner, he should be able to hear about all Ways and be more and more in accord with his own.” ― Yamamoto Tsunetomo, Hagakure: The Book of the Samurai

We recommend that you commit to whatever way you choose. We also recommend that you avoid any way which forbids you from walking away from that way. Anything which seeks to prevent you from leaving wants to imprison you. 

So find your own way. Commit to that way. Recognize that your way is one of many. Recognize that others may not agree with your way. Recognize that even you may one day abandon the way for another.  

Lore Day: The Swimming Vipers

Classification: Others- Monsters- Abominations- Greater Abominations

The Greater Abominations are monsters embodying twenty four false proofs or logical fallacies. 

Most Vipers do not swim. But some do. The Swimming Vipers embody the fallacy of anecdotal evidence, the idea that a few examples is sufficient evidence from which to judge the whole.
