The question I hear most often from my students is, “how am I going to use this in real life? When I read the news, listen to political commentaries, and take part in the debates over current issues, I realize that we could do with a bit more poetry of logical ideas.

Thoughts of a dancing, loving, searching child of God. Friday, May 25, 2012. It's not about marriage. It’s nothing to do with marriage.

Yesterday morning we heard this story. What's going on in China? What are they doing there? Well, it sounds like they're banning the advertising of luxury," I respond. What's that word, 'luxury?

http://pastordagney.blogspot.com/2012/03/religion-faith-or-excuse.html

Thoughts of a dancing, loving, searching child of God. Monday, March 19, 2012. Religion: a faith or an excuse? For many it is a deeply held faith, but for others it is an excuse to avoid civic duty, operate outside the bounds of the law and grasp for power. Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.". How far can it go? When a religious organization buys property, must it abide by all the laws that apply to other property owners? Labor la...

Thoughts of a dancing, loving, searching child of God. Friday, January 13, 2012. What will you do when you're 111 years old? I'm too old to.". Never mind, because in light of Warina Zaya Bahou. That excuse just crawled in the corner, released one last pathetic whimper, and died of asphyxiation.
