The Pedestrianist: Ravelling
http://thepedestrianist.blogspot.com/2007/05/such-great-ikon-gathering-on-sunday.html
I used to run, but too often in the wrong direction. Tuesday, May 22, 2007. Such a great Ikon gathering on Sunday night, titled ‘The God Delusion’. Here is the piece I read. Here I am unravelling! It began with a doubt. A tickling thread, an element itching. Not much, but at the time I wanted it gone; I prayed for it to disappear. Unravelling. Some early questions coming out of the fray: How can I claim to know God? How can I comfortably address Infinite-God in prayer? What is my faith made of? But unrav...

The Pedestrianist: The End
http://thepedestrianist.blogspot.com/2013/05/the-end.html
I used to run, but too often in the wrong direction. Monday, May 06, 2013. The future isn’t a place we’re going. It isn’t even a time we’re going. There is no future. Everything you think about the future is exactly that – a thought, an imagination, a fancy little construct you’ve built for yourself. There is no future. Sorry to burst your bubble, but there is no future and it’s obvious because it hasn’t happened yet. Nope, it is not a place we are going, nor a time we are going! Look to the future?

The Pedestrianist: Forced Hypocrites
http://thepedestrianist.blogspot.com/2007/05/forced-hypocrites.html
I used to run, but too often in the wrong direction. Sunday, May 06, 2007. Representative democracy where decisions that affect us are made without us, and that affect others are done in our name. At best we are forced hypocrites, cursing our wallets as we feed and clothe ourselves while standing on the backs of others, cursing our ballot papers as we decry the politicians. Curse our failure, us forced hypocrites, there is no righteousness in our actions. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Pedestrianist: Lexikon - scattered words on words
http://thepedestrianist.blogspot.com/2010/03/lexikon.html
I used to run, but too often in the wrong direction. Tuesday, March 09, 2010. Lexikon - scattered words on words. My piece for Ikon's 'Lexikon' gathering (Feb '10). Languages are only proxies of our minds, endeavouring but failing to summarise what we experience. To illustrate – although somewhat urban-mythologised, the notion of there being many Eskimo words for ‘snow’ helps us understand how our own language for snow is inadequate. 8211; Gustave Flaubert (Madame Bovary).

The Pedestrianist: Black Rebel Motorcycle Club @ The Village, Dublin 26/2/7
http://thepedestrianist.blogspot.com/2007/02/black-rebel-motorcycle-club-village.html
I used to run, but too often in the wrong direction. Tuesday, February 27, 2007. Black Rebel Motorcycle Club @ The Village, Dublin 26/2/7. We drove three hours there and back, both of us almost falling asleep to our road deaths on the way home. (Chatting about alcohol and rock ‘n’ roll saved our lives). Keep up the good work.

The Pedestrianist: To the Powerful
http://thepedestrianist.blogspot.com/2008/02/to-powerful.html
I used to run, but too often in the wrong direction. Wednesday, February 13, 2008. What is it I want to say? The very place of power you occupy offends the idea of equality; how could dignity and fairness be possible in such a hierarchy? And, Powerful, do you not see that you have found yourself in a place of deprivation? Remove yourself – no –. Yourself from your places of power. Dismantle the hold you have over others. We are, all of us, of an immense and too great a value. Dtpxp xwbjb[url=http:/ drdre...

The Pedestrianist: From an honest life to a hospitable life
http://thepedestrianist.blogspot.com/2011/10/from-honest-life-to-hospitable-life.html
I used to run, but too often in the wrong direction. Thursday, October 06, 2011. From an honest life to a hospitable life. Consensual selfishness ( agreeing. I read books slowly (at walking pace, perhaps). I listen to music albums thoroughly. I like conversing with people smarter than I am. well, sometimes. Plus I engage in avenues of escapism when it all gets too much. I like a bit of spice. View my complete profile. He has an objet petit a. God is not elsewhere. Sins of the Father.

The Pedestrianist: The Cinema Experience
http://thepedestrianist.blogspot.com/2007/01/cinema-experience.html
I used to run, but too often in the wrong direction. Monday, January 08, 2007. Don’t download poor quality movies - pay for the bad experience at your local cinema. And even if they nailed the picture perfectly, I’m sure the place didn’t have surround sound, the screen was tiny, and, yeah while I’m at it, the seats were a bit cramped. :).

The Pedestrianist: To the Earth! And all who sail in her, and fly in her, and drive in her...
http://thepedestrianist.blogspot.com/2007/03/to-earth-and-all-who-sail-in-her-and.html
I used to run, but too often in the wrong direction. Friday, March 16, 2007. And all who sail in her, and fly in her, and drive in her. If you saw C4's 'The Great Global Warming Swindle' you might have been left, like me, feeling rather flummoxed and wondering what to believe. It is worth catching a repeat showing - but not without a pinch of salt - even just to see what some might call 'propaganda' at work! The programme sparked a lot of discussion. Here are some good rebuttals. I read books slowly (at ...
