The First Blog (ominous music in the background)

And so it is and so it shall be.  Rainy and tropically depressed in PA, I find myself pondering religion.  This is not a norm as we are not really the church going type around here.  The church of Carlinism? Keep your laws off my garden? Right to farm? I want to slaughter my own meat without government intervention and by the way present health care is a joke?  So we ponder on the foundation of our principles and how to keep from sounding anti-American, yet still put together a positive, cohesive life message that will speak to people without the guilt and smiting.  Ok, maybe some smiting, if you are really a jerk, smite yourself good.  The new interest in becoming a church has much to do with the impending and existing government restrictions on local meat processing, seed patenting and the possible microchipping of animals.

  Basically I am trying to protect my family's sustainability and our nation's food supply from the growing movement of nonsensical centralization.  To do that, I feel that religious exemption will be the solution.  Carlinism is very appealing, 10 commandments boiled down the demi-glace of "Don't be an Asshole."  You just can't argue with that kind of logic.  However, shall we interject a bit more forward thinking?  Where are we going in the future if this religion, yet unnamed, takes off, what forward virtues do we espouse?  How about, please think soundly before acting, please love deeply and often, generosity and hospitality are of the highest vibrational level?  How am I to sneak thou shalt not microchip mine chicken into these broad beliefs.  I see a very lengthy, outline form sneaking on to my horizon with great seriousness, it was once a joke.  Sadly necessary, yet exciting to see it take shape as a reality, maybe there is practiced religion for the good, a worship that will benefit the planet, not just mankind.
