More that 50 years ago I asked
a clergyman of Southern Christian Faith the following question.
"Do birds
go to heaven when they die?"
THE REPLY: "No, because
they have no Soul."
Even then, as a young child,
I experienced great annoyance from that answer.
The TRUE and PROPER answer
is expressed in this poem of unknown origin.
In this sect of Pantheism
the term "Collective Intelligence" is used: "God"
is the bridging term of commonality.
SINGULARIUM:ONE
OMNIBUS!
Meaning, We are
a singular force of Creation; we are one with all things created,
we are omnipresent.

"A wee child
toddling in a wonder world, I prefer to their dogma my excursions
into the natural gardens where the voice of the Great Spirit is
heard in the twittering of birds, the rippling of mighty waters,
and the sweet breathing of flowers. If this is Paganism, then
at present, at least, I am a Pagan."
