At lunch today I overheard my 8 year old grand-daughter explain to her 7 year old brother that "Christ died on the cross for our sins." Like it was truth. My grandson decided Spiderman was…Continue
Science vs Religious thought

Let me make this simple if I can:I am not a scientist. I read a lot of science. I don't understand all of it completely but I believe it is true and rational. I have seen things on TA that have…Continue

I have seen discussions on what the word 'atheist' means. My POV. I don't believe in god or gods the way I don't believe in Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, Prop Man, Sasquash, Fairies, or magic. I…Continue

I Like Christmas
Posted on December 22, 2010 at 11:00pm 2 Comments 0 Likes
I was sitting in my office today. I was alone as almost everyone else has taken off for the holiday. I had Pandora on Christmas music. I listen to a lot of Baroque, Renaissance, medieval, celtic and new age music anyhow and that was the flavor of my Christmas music. I also had Trans-Sibrian Railway and Manheim Steamroller. I really enjoyed it.
I like Church. I don't mean the religion. Or The Church.
I like the Christmas Service Happy Music…

When I was a child I was a bit fanciful. I remember my mother on several occasions explaining the difference between 'real' and 'pretend/imagination'. And speculating about things was fine, playing was fine, but in reality I would not be able to fly off the roof with my umbrella like Mary Poppins and if I got hurt she would kill me.
I love to read. It comes with the whole librarian thing and I have been reading since I was 4. I do read a lot of non-fiction; history, medicine,…

I decided my musings are more Blog worthy than Forum worthy.
As far as I am concerned, my car runs on ritual magic. I basically know how it works and I used to be able to do things to to engine but now they are computerized and more complicated. I put gas in my car, I turn the key and it runs. A matter of faith.
I take it to the Car place when the lights come on and tell me to 'change oil' or 'check tire pressure'. I know what these mean and could posslibly do…

I took my kids to church, but did something right because it didn't take. I think rational discussions at home helped them make their own decisions at about 14. And I encourged them to think for themselves.
