The Path Ministry

 I’ve been expressing a lot of anger lately about the current state of affairs in America. I fear for the future, and we all know that anger is based on fear, so I’m angry. However. The Path teaches Compassion, which is similar to freeing a raccoon from a trap. The animal doesn’t understand your intentions; it is afraid of you. To be Compassionate means dodging the claws and tending to the wounds. It’s easy to be kind to those of your tribe, isn’t it? Whenever anyone gets killed, one side cheers and the other side weeps. No difference in the level of Compassion there. We cannot be kind or empathetic towards our tribal rivals. It may be hard to believe, but billionaires are miserable. Look at their faces. Neither Musk nor 47 can even smile properly. Musk can’t even play his own video games; he hires people to play for him so he can brag about his high-level characters and equipment. How sad is that?

You all know how I feel about xianity as a whole. I’m not a big fan of the mythology or the ones who believe in it. However, there are xians, and quite a few of them, who actually do what their jesus character told them to do as it comes to charity. They are instructed to give in secret instead of announcing their generosity to be admired by other people, so they do. I got this information from a few posts that popped up on my Facebook feed. (I get a lot of religious content.) There really are xian ministries who teach their adherents to actually care about other people and help those who may be struggling. I think this is something to admire no matter what mythology one adheres to. So let’s take a moment to be glad these churches exist. They may be few, but even a few is enough to be grateful for.
