I've always disagreed with that phrase. I think l'enfer c'est moi. The others have no 'real' means to make hell in me (if you can disregard torture and such). But my conception of the world, the way I see the other is the world in which I live, that can be hell... or heaven... or more likely for most of us a bit of each. That would mean 'sin' will be immediately punished, maybe before you actually sin. Because to do so you must live in (perceive) a world that justifies it, and living in that kind of world is punishment enough. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
