Daily Inspirational Quote September 11 2014
“Sin lies only in hurting other people unnecessarily. All other ‘sins’ are invented nonsense.” – Robert A. Heinlein
I sometimes hear from people who are curious about psychic matters, but are afraid to explore them because they think that the Bible says that doing so is sinful or wrong. Well, the Bible does say, “Thou shalt not lie,” yet we would hardly fault someone for lying to Nazis to protect Jews hiding in the attic, or for lying to a child about the existence of Santa Claus. Intention is everything! In exploring psychic matters, we are bravely seeking greater understanding of life and deeper connection with the divine; we are not sinners. In fact, we are more noble than those who avoid such matters out of fear of punishment.
