That song is so fucking Texas it's not even funny. Except it is.
God. With these phones Jon and I are those poeple.

[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.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Also, folks, I was serious that I'm not topic-flouncing as much as reining myself in. But I am reading along and mulling everything over, and grateful for the conversation.

I always feel, as a sort of theist/agnostic/whatever, that I wished i believed in prayer and religion. It seems comforting and helpful, but I would feel like a big old hypocrite if I tried to belong to a church. In fact, I sort of always wanted to be a nun, because I think I would like study and ministering to the poor and sick, and a life that is regulated and calm but where you could fight for things for others. And I do believe that Jesus's teachings, whether he really thought them up or not, are something to aspire to-- "If a man asks for your shirt, give him him your coat as well."-- that is a good thing.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I'm with Sophia. Well, except for wanting to be a nun.

Tep, I hope you know that even if this is a touchy issue, I really respect your opinions.
Sometimes I wish I believed. Howling void and all. But I have to admit I don'tm
I love that this is a place where I can talk about it.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I saw a documentary a while back with a scene in which this one guy, an atheist, talked about the morning his son was born, and how he drove towards Jerusalem soon after and the sun was rising and it was all so beautiful and in that moment he found it tempting to give thanks to Someone for it all, but that would have been inconsistent with his beliefs. I'm not explaining it well - it's a really moving scene that has given me a lot of admiration for committed atheists. It's so much easier for me to be agnostic. But I am really comfortable with not knowing and ambiguity, so that is where I naturally end up. It is obviously not for everybody, or even most people.
I had a point, but I think I lost it.
