Yesterday, I found a caterpillar on the stairs at work. I put my hand in front of it, and it had no problem crawling on me. It was a beautiful life in my hand. Life is remarkable ( Read more... )

Pfft, Twitter is effing stupid. But I'm amazed that you're no longer Republican. So you're no longer a Palin-lover?

By the way, your husband's anti-Christian rant on Facebook is ridiculous. Does he think these objections are new? or at all convincing? Ridiculous, I say.

Have I ever asked what denomination you are, by the way?

I don't like Palin the way I used to. I thought she was different, but found she is no better than the average politician. I think she is over-criticized, but she over-criticizes. Anyone who tries to villainize Michelle Obama's campaign against childhood obesity has gone off the deep end.

Can you comment on his FB post though you are not friends? A debate between you two would be interesting. Never ending but interesting.

I'm charismatic Methodist.

It doesn't appear that I can.

Oooooh. I didn't know such things as charismatic Methodism even existed! Sounds neat.

I'm curious, is it a requirement to register for a specific political party in the States in order to vote at elections? Here everyone has to register for the electoral roll, but you only have to join a political party if you want to be able to vote in their internal elections (the same thing as your primaries I assume).

I need to go through a food overhaul myself. I've consumed way too much junk food and gained too much weight these last two years ever since my ex and I broke up. Damn comfort eating. I'm looking forward to being skinny again like I used to and not having the desire anymore to consume so much crap.

Creative exposure is good :)

I'm on Twitter. I'm probably most active there these days. I'll add you. I'm MarkDuval on it :)

It is not a US requirement to register with a party to vote except for voting in the primaries.

I'm the opposite with food - I tend to lose my appetite when I feel depressed/anxious.

Followed you back!

Hey, I just added ya on twitter - my handle is got_beardz.

A few years ago, I found myself in an intellectual crisis regarding my Christianity. I came across several magnificent pastors that stirred me back into confident belief, including John Piper and R.C. Sproul.

But the standout is Timothy Keller, of Redeemer ministries in New York. He wrote a book called "The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism" that completely shook me to the core and reshaped the way I look embrace my Christian faith rationally. I highly suggest giving this book to your husband, or maybe even reading it for yourself if you haven't.

Here's a youtube video with Keller talking about the book: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=La8my_6uUng

I like Tim Keller's books. If I lived in New York I imagine I'd find myself at his church.

Matt, I just ordered the book. Thanks for the recommendation!

the pastor of my church in Houston just left our church after 13 years to preach at Tim Keller's church.
