Reading excerpt of Book of the Law

[seekinghga]

Yeah, I have to agree with Takamba. Or, if you must cut it short, stop at verse 93.

I've decided to not read it at all if I can't read the whole thing.

Thanks

What's wrong with reading a passage from it? Seems to be ok for the priestess in the Gnostic Mass.

[Hermitas]

I was wondering the same thing - minus the reference, but still.

[AliceKnewIt]

Part of my decision is that this would be a last-minute inclusion in a pre-planned event.

[Avshalom Binyamin]

Understood, and you're free to read it or not, for whatever personal reason. "Feels weird" is a good enough reason.

This thread seemed to imply that there is some rule against reading Chapter 1 of the Book of the Law at all in front of people unless you can read it in it's entirety. And I was asking if such a thing existed, or it was all just personal feelings.

[AliceKnewIt]

It's just personal feelings.

"This thread seemed to imply..."

Clever choice of words, it abdicates all responsibility from any party. And it's not true.

The thread seemed no such, it implied nothing of the sort. My take was simply in Art.

[Avshalom Binyamin]

Ok...

Seem: give the impression or sensation of being something or having a particular quality

"If it can't be done in total, don't do it."

This gave me the impression that there is an implied rule here against doing it in total. I guess there's not. So it didn't really imply that after all. It just seemed to, to me.

I'm pretty happy with my word choice. And you seem to be happy with your word choice too. Yay for us!
