Vortexians- I am not a devout christian- But I must admit
the elelgant simplicity of Christ teachings and
the simple requirements to enter heaven make it
the most God like of all teachings.
To enter heaven one must -believe- be baptised-
and do chose to do good to all others.
If I don't do good I simply must ask for forgiveness
and try to do better in the future.
I don't have to bow a certain number times aday-
I don't have to beat myself -I don't have to make a
pilgramish to any where.
So elegant yet so simple.
