Just Talkin’

 Catechism allows you to talk about God.  Meditation can allow you to experience God.  Reading the bible can give you information, historical, mythical and so on.  But it will hang around in your mind and imagination.  It won’t make you a better you.  You can read the book “Alcoholics Anonymous” and know about history of recovery, but you won’t become a recovering alcoholic until you actually do the steps, which have meditation as part of the twelve steps.  I know people who are quite familiar with their catechism answers and rules, but I would never want to be like them.  Not because of what they know, but because of what they have not yet experienced at sufficient depth.
