The [[ceremony]] of [[adoption]] consisted in drinking each other's [[blood]]. In some [[groups]] saliva was exchanged in the place of blood drinking, this being the ancient [[origin]] of the [[practice]] of [[social]] kissing.

To ''kiss'' the face of [[God]] is to recognize the [[dynamic]] nature of [[individual]] interaction and [[shared]] vulnerability and [[intimacy]]. Where [[spirit]] meets the willing [[personality]] is in the daring [[efforts]] of realizing the commonness between individual wills. This may seem vast in scope, but in [[reality]] your comprehension of personal [[relations]] with God is greatly amplified in your willingness to [[interact]] with other personalities. - [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=1998-01-16-Your_Relationship_with_God#Lesson]
