Uncertain where to begin middle end.

I had a nice weekend. Went to Chicago to visit my best friend. Found out their art museum currently holds the original Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte. Pointillism and pixels are similar so I have an affinity for that one. Lucked out and got to see Bad Religion headline. Slept a lot but ( Read more... )

What happened last Tuesday has roots in the Christian church, but to me it has much more to do with stupidity and ignorance. I believe that in America today, very few Christians actually live the life Jesus Christ would have wanted them to live. The greatest example to me is all this banning of gay marriage. If these people actually knew about the religion they believe in, I think they would leave gay people alone and know that if they are offending God, then God shall judge them, and it is not their place to judge anyone, as that is reserved for God alone.

No, it's Diebold and Election Systems & Software. Wait, sidetracked. What I mean is, I was trying to express that my prior post was mainly venting and I chose to vent at a group that is related to the election outcome and who I already, admittedly, have a fairly low opinion of. Intellectually, I'm aware that this is a very complicated issue and Christianity, or even religion in general, is only a piece of the pie. Just to pick one example, Bush's skillfull use of the "war on terror" as a manipulative device has absolutely nothing to do with religion, but a lot to do with the election. I just didn't bring that up in this post because I spent a lot of the weekend thinking about the religious stuff I'd spouted off in my earlier post and that's where my mind was. Anyhow. I ( ... )

24% of Americans believe that the Internet is able for a time to replace them with a loved one. For obvious reasons, such sentiments particularly prevalent among residents of the United States alone. Both men and women can replace the beloved, beloved trips to the World Network. However, the willingness to such transactions vary among followers of different ideologies: conservatives frowned relate to this idea, and the "progressive-minded" on the contrary, Nerkarat it ( ... )
