God Forbid Throwing the Baptized Baby Out with the Bathwater?🛀 ⛪👼🛁

Religion: it’s at the centre of world affairs,
but profound questions still remain

These two podcast episodes hit my iPad around the same time this morning in Australia, and I have to say that these two shows (God Forbid and Neon Galactic) are in my top ten podcasts at the moment.

Neon Galactic: Episode 102

Both of these recent episodes touch on similar themes.

I've written about the God Forbid podcast earlier in the year, before I went to America -

The 'God Forbid' Radio/Podcast show

God Forbid ... Close Encounters, Drugs and NDEs? 🛸🪦👻🙈🙉🙊👽

I also wrote a post featuring the God Forbid podcast this week -

Where do we draw the line
between a religion and a cult?

Every May 29th

I still consider myself "spiritual, but not religious" for lack of a better term, even when one the "experts" bring up the term in the latest God Forbid podcast.

And the host also brings up the term about the baby in the bathwater, hence the title of this post, where I just made it the baptized baby, which I guess I would have to count myself as one, since I was baptized in the Church of England by my parents (who weren't religious) just after I was born, and I was confirmed a Liberal Catholic in my early adulthood by my own choice, and still am a member, but haven't been for a long time.

I still consider myself a Liberal Catholic if I had to slap a label on myself when it comes to religion, but I don't have to I feel, as I'm more "spiritual, but not religious" these days;-)

Dr. Iya Whiteley -- Neon Galactic -- Episode 102

Watching the Neon Galactic You Tube of the podcast episode I noticed a mandala on the wall behind David Stuss and thought of the latest 'This Jungian Life' podcast episode I just listened to yesterday about the mandala Jung wrote about and studied:-)

This also reminded me of Mike Clelland stating in a March 7th 'Backpacker Radio' podcast episode that in his research of owl/UFO abductees, how a lot of these people become trained Reiki healers -

I Was in the Same State (Colorado) as The Owl Guy, While He Was There ... Maybe?🌎🦉

And wasn't David Lynch into Transcendental Meditation?
