Yes it is a biblical reference with the wall street stock market bring represented by a huge bull.. Being an old farm boy a male calf grows up to be a bull. The mixture of the two realities create the golden calf factor. The worship of wealth as god.. Look around because we are surrounded by those that worship money as a "god".
The question is just how important is money in your life Gabby?

Subject: Re: Mind's Eye Re: The religious atheistYou keep on reminding us, Allan, yes. I'll hurry up. I have started reading up on the United States Declaration of Independence, but the problem is there, they don't use "golden calf factor" and don't base it on religious reasons but on "Laws of Nature". Thank you for your patience.--

Subject: Re: Mind's Eye Re: The religious atheistThat is the question pol. I have faith that lead carbonate will turn yellow at 78 degrees, at least in Earth laboratories. Spent today cleaning up after my grandson - little faith in him and considering a ban. I take people as they come. Not so much about faith in them as hoping they may have common interests - fairly rare for me. Thee seem to be things to hope for requiring faith. Most people expressing faith seem to be doing something else to me, in the religious sense.--The big one for me is faith in social systems' claims on what they are really doing and can do. That looks bleak.

Faith in others. That is an interesting l)question.. Personally I try give people the benefit of trust. Until that trust is broken.. A lot of people don't care if they are dishonest toward others.

Obviously, religions can be given up at the drop of a conqueror's hat, despite all previous professions of faith. So do we overdo faith as an internal matter? Without the external misery, scarcity and so on, would there be much need-demand for inner self-development offered as peaceful light at the end of the tunnel in better external environments?--I don't find people working much on inner integrity and much more on image management and backing down to the chief barker.

We had a debate today with our current Chancellor of five years being blamed for doing nothing on tax evasion-avoidance and in turn blaming his predecessor for doing nothing five years ago. Clear proof of just how useless our system is and an argument rather like Tony's shape and lack of colour here. I suspect a diversion of our faith to the kind of contentment we strive to achieve in domestic herds.
