Oh that's right, I forgot, you consider it a putdown to call someone an atheist. My bad!

Oh, Bhare, I don't think that's a particularly intelligent conclusion on your part, especially since you were having a back-and-forth with merudanda (on whom, as I recall, you admitted you had a crush at one point) about filling and emptying with distinctly sexual overtones. And of course it isn't at all unusual for a person to capitalize their pet name for the (human) object of their affections. I mean, to leap from someone not realizing a capital letter signifies a divine being, particularly given the above circumstances, to the conclusion that the person is an atheist--in the absence of any other evidence--doesn't make much sense, now, does it? One might even conclude that that explanation was intended as a putdown. > BTW, you've just unknowingly addressed me by my Vedic sound, > thank you (-: Fixed. > ________________________________ > From: authfriend <authfriend@...> > To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com > Sent: Saturday, August 10, 2013 9:14 AM > Subject: [FairfieldLife] Re: Discourse 16 Ishta > > > >  > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Share Long <sharelong60@> wrote: > > > > jeez, Ann, I never realized you're an atheist. > > Now, why on earth would you think that, Thare? > > See, you and turq have something deep in common after all! > > > > > > > > > > ________________________________ > > From: Ann <awoelflebater@> > > To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com > > Sent: Saturday, August 10, 2013 9:03 AM > > Subject: [FairfieldLife] Re: Discourse 16 Ishta > > > > > > > >  > > > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Share Long <sharelong60@> wrote: > > > > > > My heart is the boat I sail in the ocean of your Love. > > > I bail and bail, your water, my water, whose water it is? > > > > > > Ah, Beloved, let us fill and empty each other without end. > > > > Ahh, FFL, who would have pictured it the breeding ground for blossoming > > love?
