THE RELENTLESS PURSUIT OF JOY IS THE ONLY HOPE OF SALVATION

  1. An inescapable aspect of the human condition is that we cannot NOT seek our greatest self interest.
  2. An ALMOST inescapable aspect of our Religion of Consumerism is that WE ARE TOTALLY MISINFORMED ABOUT OUR SELFINTEREST. We've been told that PLEASURE is the ultimate, when in fact it is JOY.
  3. JOY is the FUEL of the PERPETUAL LIFE/LOVE/TRUTH/SALVATION engine. No? If not there is no hope. If not Jesus was wrong; King was wrong; Gandhi was wrong.

"He came not to give the
peace of the world
which is only that we
don't bother each other.
He came to give the
Peace of heart
which comes from loving -
from doing good to others."

Teresa of Calcutta
