Sacred/Nothing Sacred? Mark Unseen   Dec 17 02:09 UTC 1997

Do you believe in the sacred?  What does it mean to you?  Does it have
meaning?  Is it Personal or Universal?  Who gets to say what's sacred and what
isn't provided you believe in it?  DO you respect what others regaurd as
sacred even if you don't believe in it?  How do you feel about this word?

Well you know how I feel about this one fontly. :-)  My question would be
can you have sacred space in VR or cyberspace?  Is spatial orientation
important to create sacred space and if so is it just a human construct or
does it have to be oriented to the 4 directions of a real thing like planet
earth?

well if you take a real compass into this vr world, would you get a reading
off of it, let alone "see" it?  would this not solve the problem of
directionality if that exists.  I'd guess that it can be sacred if it feels
such to you.  (but that's just me)

Of course you can have a sacred space in cyberspace.  'holiness' is entirely
a personal thing, and if you can feel that sort of energy from a computer then
it can be sacred to you.
