the Dao of Atheism : | : the Shaman Atheist 17/81 |
A master's existence is rarely known. A good person's presence is widely known and praised and imitated. A person who collects power scares others and makes them fearful, small and hateful.

There are many communities of theists ... Hindus, Jews, Christians, Muslims, Native peoples. and a few communities of atheists ... Daoists, Buddhists, Humanists People live differently -- some with greater communal needs than others, some with more individualistic desires than others. There is no higher value in community or individualism -- both always exist. Does the negation of one and the affirmation of the other draw atheists and theists together?
Affirming one thing always invites the negation of the other.
