I知 with you brother. For a number of reasons, I have a strange formal education. As a side note, I have an informal PhD in human nature, I pay close attention, I can tell what many people are going to do before they do it.
I don稚 take much seriously and this falls into that category but......there are times when it痴 very serious.
There are Many many religions in the world, current and historic. One of the prechristian belief systems is called Animism I think.
Itç—´ a belief that EVERYTHING has a soul. I gotta believe the original practitioners were thinking, that stream has a soul, that bird has a soul, that rock has a soul, that big yellow thing in the sky has a soul etc etc.
So, every time Murphyç—´ law strikes, I cuss the soul of the rusty nut that just broke, or the pine root that just smacked me in the face, or the black water tank that leaks just because. The rope thatç—´ always just a little short, endless.
I believe they all have souls and mostly evil, like the gremlins from the movie, not the nice cute gremlins, the evil gremlins after they got wet!
My Irish grandmother believed in leprechauns, not the Disney version. Her leprechauns were more like the evil gremlins.
