For the purposes of this discussion, there exists an important little difference between what I'll call exclusivity. The word “catholic,” for this reason,. Although the youn...

The Musings of Apostrophe: April 2013
http://themusingsofapostrophe.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 9, 2013. WARNING: I don't typically write like this, and I don't normally feel like this, either. I've decided to leave it as angry as it originally was for the sake of an authentic depiction of my emotions. I couldn't even do it, it was too hard. I ran away. Since when does it have to be scary that natural laws really do function? Since when is it a shock that history contains bias? The need for a Holy of Holies? Of the many, many legitimate applications of these things to Christology?

The Musings of Apostrophe: March 2014
http://themusingsofapostrophe.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 18, 2014. It's another one of those. It's what you make it. Your gravestone still speaks to me almost as though you were here. Let me tell you the tale of your people - I pray. It's been emptied of thought and of peace and of wisdom and charity. Why'd you put me here, stuck here, I'm called but I just want to leave. Duplicitous, serpentine words. Caress their mouths and their hearts. They are whoring your corpse and the blood stains their lips -. Where did you go? That temple is strong.

Speak to the Controversy. Orientation. Gender. Sexuality. Faith. Taboo. Discussion. Tuesday, February 4, 2014. My criticism arises, as always, first and foremost with my own experience with gender. "Transmasculine" is the label that applies to me by definition. I'm FAAB, DFAB, and grew up as a relatively feminine girl. I am no longer a feminine girl, instead opting to wear more masculine clothing and identify more closely with man identities than I used to. It seems at first glance to fit. Self-justified...

The Musings of Apostrophe: November 2014
http://themusingsofapostrophe.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 11, 2014. Mary, Did You Know? I read it as a reductio ad absurdum. Many Christian miracles can be read as such, and the theologically-minded individuals I grew up around were perfectly self-aware about this fact. There were many things wrong with the worldview I was fed as an adolescent, but at least it took itself seriously. The beauty of this hymn is that it makes very blatant the extent of the tension between Jesus' humanity and supposed divinity, framing the story lyrically as thoug...

Wednesday, February 13, 2013. Femininity and the Value of Self-Integration. This might seem like an unfair burden - How can people know what they can't see or label? But it's simpler than that. For many LGBT people, coming out is a huge statement of personal self-awareness and awakening, because identifying something. In Lisa M.

Tuesday, September 24, 2013. Reflections on Cerebral Sadomasochism. Today I was at lunch with a couple guys from my Philosophy class that were stranger enough to me that I had to ask their names upon leaving the conversation. The class and the conversations and these disagreements are such nostalgic deja vu. To me - Euthyphro's Dilemma today, and a million attempts a definitions of "morality." Agent-based or essential understandings? Is God inherently good, or otherwise? What can we know? At some point, ...
