Comparative Religion Funny

1. God that's funny

2. Very cute, but not accurate for Taoism

It should read something like "Shit happens, but whether it's really shit or not depends on your point of view."

3. I saw this on a Northwest Coast Indian's Facebook, and I wondered what the saying for them would be

4. Or maybe something like

Shit happens but don’t stress unless it’s something you can change

5. I hope you don't take this in any way but the respectful way in which it's meant,

but no, that wouldn't be Taoism. A Taoist doesn't look to change anything. In Taoism, you just know that change happens — change is the only constant — and you accept that change.

6. No, I wouldn't take it any way

I was being a bit flip.

I’m not a practitioner of any religion. I did enjoy my comparative religion class in college and Taoism was particularly interesting to me.

I like the idea that one has a certain amount of energy and should spend it on things that matter, it has become part of my own personal philosophy.

Perhaps my ideas have morphed over the many years since I learned about that.

7. Kickin' this shit.
