Bob the Ape comments on the Schori interview:
Bishop Bo-Peep has lost her sheep,
And doesn’t know where to find them,
For, in their pride, when they up and died,
They left no children behind them.
Bishop Bo-Peep holds offspring cheap,
Compared with a good education.
Those with PhDs, or other degrees,
Are too smart to engage in gestation.
Bishop Bo-Peep would gladly sweep
Mankind off the face of the Earth,
For they who aspire to the favor of Gaea
Must oblige her by not giving birth.
Bishop Bo-Peep may someday reap
The harvest of seed never sown,
When she starts an oration to her congregation
And finds that she’s preaching to no one.
Bishop Bo-Peep will start to weep
And utter laments and complaints,
As the Catholics, unheeding, continue their breeding,
And so do the Latter Day Saints.
Bishop Bo-Peep has thoughts so deep,
We hope she will somehow find time
To tell us how men can be born again,
When being born once is a crime.

And what an interesting point about Gaia: back in the day, wasn't earth-goddess-worship all about the fertility?

Um, yeah... and most likely, the more the better...
This was really awesome Bob!

Around here was either the first, or largest of something Shaker community. You have Shaker museums, you can find Shaker furniture, Shaker HS, Albany-Shaker Rd and Shaker cemeteries. You can go to Sienna College and take courses on the commonalities of Shaker and Catholic Theology (I'll pass).
The funny thing about the Shakers, there aren't any left (or very few). They didn't believe in procreation. What is the point of "stewardship", or in the case of the Shakers, being a culture that invented Bisquick and made nifty furniture if there is no one left to enjoy it?
I thank you. I am not of many words; but I thank you.
