                                   by  Katz **

    Often I think religions use guilt to keep the flock in line.  They
encourage guilt and then say, "Come to us and we will free you from your
guilt."   George Carlin does a great monologue on sin, that you can commit
seven or eight sins just from one sinful act (thinking about sinning, planning
the sin, doing the sin, enjoying the rewards of the sin, covering up the sin,
etc.).  While having no guilt at all is not the way to be, I think we often
let guilt rule our lives and the lives of those around us.
