Re: Be that as it may...
In Response To: Re: Be that as it may... ()

Greetings
I am in agreement with you that the original word was written in our hearts from creation. However, I am in disagreement about the benefit of the written word. I do see how the evolution from symbols to written word has been beneficial to human development. Most of InI story was passed down through oral tradition. Over time, it became important to be able to write (symbols or script) those traditions down for future generations to see. That way, the history/culture/livity of the people is preserved. What would have been lost/dead still lives because of the written word.

Words carry a sound/power. Written words are used to preserve the spoken word and its power. This power can be used very recklessly. History has proven and shown. People have used words against others just like they have used swords against each other.

It all depended on how best it suited the needs of the wielder/controller of the word.

The bible is but one example.

It is not the written words in it that downpresses, but the power that those written words are said to represent (by the controllers) that does.

It is a powerful tool/weapon against those who cant discern folly from true wordsound.

Bless up
