So me and 'G-Man' was discussing things over coffee this morning, and I asked Him about all this 'religion' thing I see all over the place. And I do mean 'all over the place' because depending upon which one you look at, they are all over the place about what to do, where to go, who you can be friends with, what you can eat, all that stuff. Anyway, G just looked at me and lightly laughed. He said "Look BearMan, it is like this: you know what is right and wrong, don't you?" I said "Well, yeah...I s'pose I do. We're s'posed to treat each other good, and not tell lies about each other, and lend a hand when we can, stuff like that." And He said "Well it is simple then; let that be your religion." And I told Him "But wait; what about all the rules about food and clothing and whatnot?" At that, He simply started rolling on the floor, He was laughing so hard at me. He calmed down after a bit and got up, brushing the cat hair and stuff off of His robe, and with a twinkle in His eye told me "Son, are you hurting Waapuu over there if you eat a piece of bacon or a pork chop?" I said "Well, no, not really." He said "Do you think I am only in church on a Sunday?" I allowed as to how He was probably everywhere all the time. He agreed, and said "Look; don't worry about all the stuff they say. They have their ways, and you have yours. Just be good; that's all I have ever wanted from you." And I said to Him "But You make it all sound so simple." And He said to me "Finally, you are making some sense."
