Here´s a thought, and it may get the guys back here to. A question of faith!
Now we know Paul believes in god, we know his background is Judaism..but! Who and what does he believe in?
The reasone I ask is this. When ever Paul greets an audiance, and says good by. When he says thank you, he uses the buddhist gestrure of palms together and a small bow.
I know this is a buddhist gesture because I was looking at Buddhism a few years back and is something that is involved in my own spiritual path.
I do feel Buddhism is something that can be brought into my own faith easly because it is following the wisdom of a man. And he said some extremely wise stuff.
And out of interest...I´m Pagan :-D
So it´s just a thought...I think Paul is a very Spiritual man, and I wouldn´t be suprised to find that Buddhism plays some part in his life.

 | Hi Micky!
I absolutely agree with you:Paul is
a very Spiritual man.It´s interest-
ingto follow his personal spiritual
developing through his songs and
his manifestations.The two palms
together gesture is an mystical,in-
ter religious sign.As in the Chris-
tianity,in the Hinduism and in many
many kind of relegion,even in the
ancient Egypt ages.This two palms
mean that Paul got the level.He has
not just knew them yet,even he li-
ves according to God´s words.He knows that he´s just a drop from
the sea,as we humans all.

 | Hi Micky, llike you I´ve often wondered about Paul´s religious beliefs. He maintains he is not religious, but he certainly seems to have a lot of time and understanding for the nicer side of christianity. not just in the music - gospel but in the message. as you´ve mentioned he embraces aspects of buddism and even mentions the koran. the one religion he doesn´t touch upon in the spiritual sense is Judaism. I wonder why? maybe he´s too close to it? |

 | I always thought Silent Eyes was about the Jewish people driven from their land, as "Jerusalem weeps alone" and that´s why "we´ll all be called ... to stand before the eyes of God and speak what was done"; or was he referring to the Crucifixion of Christ? |
