    I think it’s interesting all societies even isolated ones have creation stories. All societies have also been shown by DNA to originate from the same ancestors.
    Turn the other cheek is one of the most difficult to understand and follow.

    What about "the golden rule", is that even from the Bible? Good one.

    There are plenty of free text-to-speech services out there, and some are even good. Copy text, paste it in, download the resulting mp3.

    Meanwhile I've been distracting myself with Strip Tease by Carl Hiassen. Somehow hadn't got to that one yet; really love this guy's sense of humor.

    I think every major religion and philosophy has a version.
    They can be broken down into two types:
    Do unto others as you would have them do to you.
    and
    Do not do onto others as you would have them not do to you.

    i think it is easy to understand (although that may be a matter of interpretation) but yes, very difficult to always follow.
