I am currently neck deep in free will/determinism for yet another essay, but while in the midst of the current one I recalled how I posted my first essay here, and so I will do the same for the most recent essay turned in. As of yet I have not heard any evaluation from my [...]

Postmodernity and Prop 8
I was watching a bit of the live coverage from the California Supreme Court hearings to overturn Prop 8. For those of you who aren’t aware of what Prop 8 is, first you need to move out from under your rock, and second, it was the ballot measure passed this past November restricting the definition [...]

Where Were You When
Today I was convinced that three months ago, in a crowded warehouse amidst a crowd of several hundred people, I voted for the right man when I cast my ballot and exercised my right as a citizen of this country.

A Thought-Provoking Thought

On Being Broken and Being Free
I’ve come to a conclusion.
Everything is broken.
In Christianeze we refer to this as “the fall” or “total depravity” or other sweepingly long words, but I think broken is a better word. Its understandable. And its true. To say that mankind is “fallen” gives the idea that we were at one point on a pedestal. And [...]

Ash Wednesday
I want to try and tackle something in this post that I’ve never really given much thought to. That is the issue, or rather celebration of, Lent. And with it being Ash Wednesday and all, I suppose its a good time to do so.
