Hey you! How's your school stuff going?
the Big!Boss has distributed bottles of wine as gifts to the office. I'm looking at it appraisingly....
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

Spike's Bitches 38: Well, This Is Just...Neat.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Okay, I guess I can email you anyway, huh?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I like to think of there as being a distinction between ignorance and not knowing.
Your lack of information doesn't bother me as ignorance until you start acting like you have the information you don't, or acting when you should have it.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

This goes far beyond religion, but what really drives me nuts are people that are proud of their ignorance. My sister falls into this camp. She wears it like a badge of honor and uses it as an excuse to be an asshole, racist, bigot, etc. etc.

How's your school stuff going?
Ok. Not going to be over as soon as I'd like, but whatever. And yay wine!
Speaking of wine, Emily what are you drinking these days? Oh, I should probably just e-mail you...

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I'm uncomfortable with the notion that you have to earn the right to disbelief, or to discussing that disbelief and having it taken seriously.

Standing in the corner with Emily, brenda and Jessica.
I'm interested in different religious practices, but mostly in an anthropological sense (is that the word I'm looking for?)

I find it deeply amusing that when I need religious info, I always turn to my favorite atheist. ND helped me so much while I was teaching the Bible as literature; I don't know what I would have done without him.
Not only could he explain anything I didn't understand, he gave me history, a synopsis of any controversy surrounding the story, and context for how it has been interpreted culturally. That boy KNOWS his Bible.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman
In fact when I entered college I was planning to be a Pastor.
This? Never not funny. Although I think that you would have been an excellent one had you chosen that path. You would have been the pastor that all of the kids loved, that the conservative parents looked at skeptically, and would have had the strongest church in town.
