There’s nothing wrong with ‘feeling’ Mr b, and you may be receptive to things that others are not. To assume however that these places were places were ‘ritual’ went on is something of a generalization (if you’re talking about all of them that is). While some certainly were places of ritual others were perhaps no more than corrals.


I don't know that we can be even certain of ritual LS. Okay, one could say that sitting down to a meal every day is a ritual, but is it in the way the word ritual is associated with the Neolithic/BA for example.
Other than that I completely agree with what you say. I also think Paul is very tuned in to what he believes in and it would go against his nature to be any different. A comment which of course that applies to each and every one of us.
