Now I know I'm not quite old enough to remember, but when ol' bill started of the sally army, and do you remember when he started preaching to those people who weren't allowed in the church, and how he took songs from the 'devil' and put new words to them. Yeah, you remember how people would say that was evil.
Now, I know in my older teenage years I am becoming more liberal (for the better I feel) but in relation to recent thoughts and comments about an officer using tai chi in a meeting my feelings are this: yes, new age prectices, carried out in new age beliefs is quite probably a dangerous practice, BUT, if the practices are used in a different context, concentrating on God, and not the centre of the body or whatever IT IS PERFECTLY FINE! IT IS A CONTEMPORY, RELEVENT USE OF THINGS AROUND US! SHOULD AN OFFICER CHOOSE TO USE A FORM OF TAI CHI TO HELP HIS CORP FEEL AT PIECE DURING A MEETING IT IS HIS/HER RIGHT, AND QUITE PROBABLY RESPONSIBILITY CONSIDERING ANY BENEFIT IT IS GIVING TO THEIR CONGREGATION, TO DO SO.
