We do not ever have to do so for any other lesser being who makes such a request in the name of God. We do not have to do any of the following things---in order to continue to be loved children of God within God's holy family: Conform to any form or formula. Confirm what anyone says we must confirm. Achieve any goal. Succeed at any task. Believe any doctrine. Recite any doctrine. Give any gift. Accept any judgement. Accept any discipline. Obey any authority. Repress any truth. Conceal any feelings. Deceive any being. Wear any mask. Pretend to be other than what we are. Save any person. Fix any person. Make ourselves acceptable to anyone. Defeat any evil power. Honor any authority. Respect any coercion or violence. Be dishonest in any way. Hate any enemy. Alienate any person. (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy) ==========================================================
