I was looking something up in the city government permits section and there it was an Application for permit to practice Metaphysical Sciences. For a nominal fee I could become a licensed metaphysician! An entirely new career. The possibilities are fascinating.

I had no idea there was such a thing.

Re: I had no idea there was such a thing.
So what do you get? A permit to do psychic readings, fortune-telling, ghost-busting, and other weird stuff like that?

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

I've been considering a new career as an Ancient Astronaut Theorist, but unfortunately I don't think I have the hair for it...

For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts
Re: I had no idea there was such a thing.
I'm thinking I might approach it as an art project. I believe in transcendance, I am, as you know, like totally supersensible, and I am naturally just super! Aum, om mane padme hum.
For less than $200 bucks too. I could have cards printed up. Buy a lava lamp (I always wanted one of those as a kid). Keep exotic pets like beetles and frogs. And I could write this off as a business expense:
I would have no set fees and take only donations.
