Theos-Talk Archives (January 2004 Message tt00341)

Hallo all of you,

My views are:

Maybe this nasrudin tale could be helpful - to some readers on the issue
"Speculation"

It is this time called - The Speculated Retreat of the Zero Monk in front of
his monitor.

"Mulla Nasrudin was visiting his psychiatrist. Among the many questions the
doctor asked was: "Are you bothered by improper thoughts?" "NOT AT ALL,"
said Nasrudin. "THE TRUTH IS I RATHER ENJOY THEM."

Laughs.

M. Suiflight with peace and love...and a huge smile...
