indecisions

when we think of heroism, we think immediately of war. but that's not anywhere near the truth of our experiences here on earth with one another and nature in her seething, rambunctious glory. heroism is the act of self sacrifice for the greater good of the group. the church militant and the church missionary are outgrowths from paul's earlier incarnation in his life as saul, the good soldier. unfortunately, psychically, this has benefitted the other side in that we "christians" are taught from the cradle that the greatest act of heroism is self-sacrifice. and who is ready in the wings to gobble up all those sacrifices, great and small? ah, of course, the self-aggrandizing, culturally blessed upperuppers and their slavish elites.
