Nontheist Friends: Quaker atheists, agnostics, humanists, and others who practice Quakerism without supernatural beliefs. What is a Nontheist? September 20, 2006. Both within and outside the informal association of Friends who call themselves nontheists, there is little common understanding of what the word nontheist means. There is also little common understanding of related words such as atheist, agnostic, humanist, and materialist, but believers and unbelievers alike have at least a sense of what.

Unwavering Bands of Light: Staying awake to God
http://unwaveringbandsoflight.blogspot.com/2006/05/staying-awake-to-god.html
Unwavering Bands of Light. Meditations on Quakerism, Christianity, and how we manifest our divinity as God's children. Staying awake to God. I am relatively new to the Bible, so it is easy to catch my attention with a good bit of scripture that I've never heard before. You can almost see my ears perk up and my tail start wagging. "Ooh, something smells good over there.". So it was with the first article in the newest Friends Journal. At that point, I started giggling. In meeting for worship. I know f...

Unwavering Bands of Light: Suspenders, stomachaches, and the articulation of leadings
http://unwaveringbandsoflight.blogspot.com/2006/05/suspenders-stomachaches-and.html
Unwavering Bands of Light. Meditations on Quakerism, Christianity, and how we manifest our divinity as God's children. Suspenders, stomachaches, and the articulation of leadings. About a month ago, I started giving away clothing by the bag-load. A few days ago, I cut the collars off of three solid-color, long sleeve shirts. Whenever I find a ride to my local Goodwill, I'm buying suspenders and switching from jeans to black pants. Shouldn't the awareness of God come from inside, not outside? I don't neces...

Spiritual Thoughts on Spiritual Thinking: At Home in the Madhouse
http://ayin-daath.blogspot.com/2008/04/at-home-in-madhouse.html
Spiritual Thoughts on Spiritual Thinking. Thursday, April 3, 2008. At Home in the Madhouse. I started my new job last week. I now work in a group home for substance-abusing individuals with co-occurring mental disorders. The overwhelming majority of them have schizophrenia, along with depression and post-traumatic stress - I have yet to see any bipolars, but I know that they are out there. I have one client who, more than the others, exhibits the classical schizophrenic symptoms of disorganized speech, a...

Spiritual Thoughts on Spiritual Thinking: The View From Halfway Up the Mountain
http://ayin-daath.blogspot.com/2008/02/view-from-halfway-up-mountain.html
Spiritual Thoughts on Spiritual Thinking. Tuesday, February 5, 2008. The View From Halfway Up the Mountain. A little while ago now, I had a mystical experience. I 'saw' God. So even if you don't think my experience is real, pretend with me for a second. For me, the more important question is whether it was useful. Just like what I, at least, think is love, the important thing isn't whether it's real, but whether it's useful. Them, for quite a while, but definitely got bored with the repetition. Time pass...

Spiritual Thoughts on Spiritual Thinking: An Appeal for Help
http://ayin-daath.blogspot.com/2008/03/ive-recently-unwittingly-become.html
Spiritual Thoughts on Spiritual Thinking. Tuesday, March 18, 2008. An Appeal for Help. I've recently, unwittingly, become embroiled in an out-of-country dispute related to my religious community at large. As mentioned in a previous post, the Harabati Baba Teqe in Tetovo, Macedonia, is under siege by armed Sunni extremists, who want to bull-doze these grounds:. Never mind the fact that it recognizes Roman Catholics and Macedonian Orthodox, rather than just one 'Christian' community. Meanwhile, the Slavic,...

A Thing So Small: January 2011
http://thingsosmall.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
A Thing So Small. What brought the kindred spider to that height,. Then steered the white moth thither in the night? What but design of darkness to appall? If design govern in a thing so small. Thursday, January 06, 2011. I shan't open this post with promises to post more. Unfortunately for my fond desire to become an internet blogging sensation, I am only occasionally moved to post- occasionally, apparently, being once a year. But here I am again! Here are the questions:. How and in what ways? Conversat...

A Thing So Small: November 2005
http://thingsosmall.blogspot.com/2005_11_01_archive.html
A Thing So Small. What brought the kindred spider to that height,. Then steered the white moth thither in the night? What but design of darkness to appall? If design govern in a thing so small. Wednesday, November 09, 2005. Back to That Christianity Problem . . . I came to a rather odd and somewhat painful realization about myself not too long ago. I think I lack the capacity for belief. But still I don't believe. Metaphor a lot. I like Hamlet. And on some level, it doesn't matter to me. It's not importa...

One Pagan's Journey. Skip to primary content. Other Links of Interest. Pagan Evangelism & Apologetics. My interest in the discussion and sharing of the Values and Virtues and Ethics held dear by my friends and fellow traveler’s within the Pagan Movement has been a part of my spiritual journey as long as I can remember. I have always learned so much about my own beliefs and ideas by discussing them and by comparing notes with others about their beliefs and ideas and ethics and values. The Barsoom Fish Rap.
