For how else can you tell what's a cult and what's not. And the more the dogma insists on being unchallenged the more it is to be suspected.<BR/><BR/>The <I>Charter of Good Behaviour for Distinguished Horses</I> could well be a disguise for the <I>Cult of Hackney Horses who Drinks only Perrier</I>.<BR/><BR/>But truly, the thing that really matters, is not whether a horse should drink Perrier or just plain old water collected in a trough, but what is it to be a horse altogether.<BR/><BR/>Does drinking Perrier makes you more or less a horse, or drinking any water at all? Maybe horses should drink whiskey instead.<BR/><BR/>So get along and be a horse, and what you drink may be altogether irrelevant to what horsiness is all about.Espionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17914504174860728587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8532639.post-1122619319989480352005-07-29T14:41:00.000+08:002005-07-29T14:41:00.000+08:00I could be wrong, but I suspect there's a moral hi...I could be wrong, but I suspect there's a moral hidden in this story :-pJayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16299949444657013533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8532639.post-1122613656754778242005-07-29T13:07:00.000+08:002005-07-29T13:07:00.000+08:00Charter of Good Behaviour for Distinguished Horses...<I/>Charter of Good Behaviour for Distinguished Horses</I><BR/><BR/>neighehehehe...i enjoyed that. :)Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07295768845774915250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8532639.post-1122607861568805882005-07-29T11:31:00.000+08:002005-07-29T11:31:00.000+08:00An interesting story with lots of civic values!
