MAYBE IT'S JUST MY LIMITED VOCABULARY?


I learned a new word today. A word I really don't think I have ever heard used before.

Disabuse: To free from a falsehood or misconception

A friend used it in an email response to me today referring to helping people see beyond so many of the false notions religion has left people with when it comes to who God the father is and what the life hidden in Christ is about.

That's a perfect word to describe what has been going on in my life for a long time now and was kicked into hyper-drive in 05,06, and 07. I have referred to it being like having rugs gently pulled out from under my feet. I have a word for it now. I've learned to appreciate the process.
Gratefully Dis-illusioned :)
