A Need for Finding Religious Community | The New Heretics
https://thenewheretics.wordpress.com/2009/12/24/a-need-for-finding-religious-community
From losing my religion to finding my faith. Laquo; Ed Young’s Fellowship Church. Christmas for the Heretic. A Need for Finding Religious Community. December 24, 2009 by The New Heretics. The realization was a simple question and answer session. Why am I looking, trying so hard to find a brand of religion that I can call my own and agree with 100%? Why am I going to church again, when clearly my theology, if known to these people would set me apart from them as a heretic? Home What is my greater desire?

The Dhammapada, Chapter 4 | The New Heretics

From losing my religion to finding my faith. Laquo; The Dhammapada, Chapters 1-3. Welcome the neighborhood, now come to our church. The Dhammapada, Chapter 4. November 7, 2009 by The New Heretics. Only a skillful flower arranger knows how to select from all the beautiful flowers the very best for their arrangements. But who can rightfully discern the choice flower of the Dharma from all the other tantalizing flowers that the world has to offer? As a bee travels from one type of flower to another, bringin...

Ruined for Life: April 2014
http://aussiexp.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Figured it might be fun to share the eclectic ramblings of my mind with others - no particular theme - lets just see where this leads. Sunday, April 13, 2014. A walk in the snow. I went for a walk in the gently falling snow. Light, spitting, “popcorn” snow we call it. There is a beautiful stillness in the snow. If we get the 3-6 inches forecasted, then noise gets soaked up as though the snow were a sponge. I thought about a lot of things as I walked. I thought about Palm Sunday a few years back – w...

Ruined for Life: June 2013
http://aussiexp.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Figured it might be fun to share the eclectic ramblings of my mind with others - no particular theme - lets just see where this leads. Saturday, June 29, 2013. Many sides to every story. I find time to read, an old familiar pastime too often elusive these recent years. I just finished a fascinating book providing a history of an Apache massacre. Before you misread that, this was a massacre of approximately 150 Apache people - many women and children. Let is wash over your soul. Between accounts; by disco...

Ruined for Life: We All Should be Feminists.

Figured it might be fun to share the eclectic ramblings of my mind with others - no particular theme - lets just see where this leads. Saturday, March 8, 2014. We All Should be Feminists. Here’s the thing – this only tangible linkage between this post and International Women’s Day is that the NPR piece that got me thinking MAY. Have been on air yesterday in some may marking this day. Because at the root of it all, the message is still about “being hot”. 8211; just doing it one way versus another. I was d...

Figured it might be fun to share the eclectic ramblings of my mind with others - no particular theme - lets just see where this leads. Tuesday, October 15, 2013. Beware the quiet one…. A little something I shared at out family celebration honouring our Jillian who turned 16 today! Illy is our baby – and so it is a little hard reaching this point. In a couple of days she will most likely get her drivers license and will become even more independent. We have so many fond memories of Jilly. This has sometim...

Figured it might be fun to share the eclectic ramblings of my mind with others - no particular theme - lets just see where this leads. Sunday, January 11, 2015. Does god have favorites when it comes to football? So a good friend of mine posts this meme this morning – not just any friend mind you, but a pastor and a really – a good Christian man. And once there, surrounded by a sea of orange – I began to ponder – what exactly does god think about all this. And then there’s the whole praying thing on...

Ruined for Life: February 2015
http://aussiexp.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Figured it might be fun to share the eclectic ramblings of my mind with others - no particular theme - lets just see where this leads. Friday, February 27, 2015. Children of a Lesser God. Increasingly I find that more and more of my friends are not like me. This I think is a good thing. I’ve learned a lot. I’ve learned to let go of the certainty of my own opinions. More simply – I’ve learned to listen. I could say perhaps that listening leads to understanding… not so. Take the news one morning this week.

Figured it might be fun to share the eclectic ramblings of my mind with others - no particular theme - lets just see where this leads. Monday, March 9, 2015. From a Father of Girls - International Women’s Day 2015. A good friend of mine who writes both better and more than I do to a much wider audience decided that something she said a few years ago on this subject was worth recycling. And she was right – you should read it now – even if you happened to have read it two years ago. Too right I’m pro...
