Why I Half Believe In God

It’s one thing to gaze sanctimoniously over a church hymnal and speak about the reality of God, but its entirely another thing to look at pictures of flat bed trucks piled high with the mud caked, silent, naked bodies of children, and ask the question.

Conspiracy to Kill Your Brain

What do we really know? Do we understand how money really works?  Do we really understand how our government is run?  Do we really know what’s in the food we are eating?  Do we even fully understand all the religious rituals we follow and where they came from? My brother and I were having a [...]

Escaping The In-Between Life(If Possible)

I’ve been thinking a lot about Faith lately. The proposition that suggest there is a dimension outside of our physical world, where a real Creator, or divine entity interacts with humanity. I’ve also been thinking about the things that get in the way of fully and firmly settling if this dimension exist. Saying you believe [...]

Praying Beneath A Noisy Ceiling Fan

I prayed for healing, more love, and clearer guidance today. A part of me wondered if it was worth it. If anyone really heard me. If somehow the clinking ceiling fan above my head was a bit too noisy. But a part of me desperately needed to experience contact. I needed, and wanted to know...

Proceed As The Way Opens

It seems relatively safe, but it can be torturous. And for many prisoners of war or cult initiates it is a particularly useful technique. The controllers withhold the ability for their victims to know what will become of them, or just important information in general. Just the fear of the unknown is enough to drive many of them crazy.

Why Don’t You Rebel? Part 2

You've heard the voice, when you've wanted to change poor habits of health, some injustice in the world, some religious tradition you've never really critically examined, or that job you're barely tolerating. It's the voice that whispers to you that people will think you're strange, and may even laugh at you if you dare try to go against what everyone else is doing.

Why Don’t You Rebel?

It's defined as a refusal of obedience or order. Wikipedia goes on to say that a rebellion can encompass anything from non-violent resistance, to violent, or organized attempts at overthrowing some established authority. History is full of examples of rebels who were responsible for this sort of rabble rousing. It shows the various philosophies they lived, and how they transformed the status quo with new ways of thinking.

Your Photoshopped Life

So I was watching this video a couple nights ago on theooze.tv Peter Rollins was discussing coming to grips with the truth about ourselves.  He uses the digital representations we use online(facebook/twitter,etc) to illustrate his point. Which is, that sometimes its easier to live through a “public profile”, which is “the idealized representation of ourselves.”  [...]
