“Something inside us is pulled into poetry, religion, and fear by water, it seems.” – Rasmussen, Larry L. in “Earth-honoring Faith”

last two quotes are from, again, Rasmussen’s “Earth-Honoring Faith”;of interest to me in support of how even “the secular” senses “sacred”

“if life is sacred, so is the entire web that sustains it.” Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew, “Our Indivisible Environment,” WSJ, 10-25-09
