Christianity has never been self-centered, it has always look for the good of others it has minded the business of others.

The greater peace comes from living for others.

a great point. I would counter that there is a difference in disengaging and minding your own business. I would put caring for the fatherless etc, those in need, as our primary business, definitely. My image of those who are doing that is that they already have quite a bit of peace, however; so this meme is directed elsewhere. i mean let's admit that most Christians are disengaged navel-gazers, stepping over the fatherless, to catch some ersatz news from the other side of the world that engages their attention, and that they feel they should have an opinion on. That.

There is some irony in that comic in that yoga meditation teaches you to empty out your mind. So actually a person is not even minding their own business.

touche`
i don't do yoga, so i missed that! But i do know Christians who do, and they, along with me, never got why or what the conflict was supposed to be about? TM is arguably different, i kind of get that one...

Re: truth comics

Where do you get your posters?

I mean most of them spout nothing but nonsense.

pure mindless slogans, no thought required.
