The Heresies
"Choice is not action. Action is choice"
   - The Book of Heresies 2-11


People everywhere spend every day walking about, not living, just existing.  I decided to put this site up after coming across a short book someone loaned me that blew me away.  What can a single little book have in it that can turn what you think upside down?

Three parts, the first a set of aphorisms or principles, the second a simple narrative, the third some commentaries. It is maybe sixty or seventy pages long - nothing like the Bible's thousands, but it's something that seems relevant today in a way that kneeling in a pew never did. It doesn't tell you what to do, it shows you how to see, and the rest is up to you. I couldn't tell you if it's philosophy or religion or something else, but it really doesn't matter.

Read it, and decide for yourself.

Last Friday I received an email from a hotmail address that included nothing more than the contents of what is now IV. I have no idea if it is "legitimate" or "real", or even what legitimate or real mean for something like this. Wednesday, July 30, 2008
One of my automated searches turned up a reference to something called "The Amalgamated" Book of Heresies. If anyone out there has more information on this please drop me a line.
