Hemlocker -- okay, at least you are picking up on the theme of the
elevation of conscientious integrity if you are using Throeau for inspiration but you lost me with The religion of the Woods part. Aside from a poem by the same name, is it also a movement or a religion that I do not know about?

The main obstacle to this is that humans have a tribal nature, "us" and "them". It would be un-American too, because no-one would have to fend for himself. I think the religion I share with Thoreau, i.e. "The Religion of The Woods" is all-inclusive.

gomedome...The writings of most every religion in the world includes something similar to the Golden Rule of the Bible. A so basic healing thought could be a universal saving grace if not lost in confrontational triviality.
