Religion, SF, and Other Speculative Fictions. Just got home. The event was full to the brim and spilling down the sides with courtesy. Surprisingly, it felt good to greet a few old friends (I’ve known some of the men for nearly 20 years). It will take me some time to process this, but I feel pretty damn fine at the moment. Thank you, everyone, for your support. You rock so very hard. Here’s the whole gang. I have the best friends in the world! Page 3 of 3. 11 Sep ’09 at 9:49 am. 11 Sep ’09 at 9:51 am.

Truth can withstand all scrutiny. Newer posts →. When is a Choice Free? April 28, 2010. I recently began working with a woman who wears a niqāb. But I can’t help but wonder if her choice to wear the veil is really a free choice, in the important sense of the word ‘free.’ A choice made under duress or threat of punishment is not, in my mind, a free choice. Such a choice is not indicative of freedom, but of coercion. Would it harm her marriage, or even ruin it? Would her friends and community shun her?

Truth can withstand all scrutiny. Was it fair to expect the Church to testify against itself? I have since come to the opinion that we are all responsible for discovering the truth.
