WWZ is very oddly serious. It was definitely a bit of a mind-screw.

- Ooh, nice assortment of interests.
I take it you've read World War Z? I just recently learned that they're making a movie based upon it. It'll be interesting to see how that one turns out.
That guy sounds like he has some major issues. I get the impression, from his writing, that he's actually preparing for the inevitable.

Salim Ayoub said… It will take a huge book, dear Emily Dietle, to tell the story behind my atheism. And it will be an awful strange one.
There hardly goes by one day without feeling the suffering that I encounter from being an atheist. If there is someone to help put it in a book. It is going to be a story of a kind; People will learn the modern oppression styles that goes on today unnoticed. So many people acting like demons in a chain that never ends.Sorry for being late to answer this mail. I have filed it to come back to it later, and forgot about that. Because I am busy running away from demons most of the time.Sincerely

Please consider a group for socializing, where we talk about whatever's on our minds, Hang With Friends. :D You might feel more at home.

Mdooo1 said… - RE: Employer barring your storage of a firearm in your vehicle.
Go to gunowners.org. Find out you your Rep's are and write them a letter. Anonymous or otherwise, and mention your employer's violation of Federal or State law. This is election year, and you know how eager they are to make voters happy!!!
I personally would also write two or three anonymous letters to your employer and print word for word the law pertaining to your location about having the right to keep firearms in your vehicle. I would also include the link or actual legal statute code. This may cause them to "update" their policy pamphlet/booklet and or put out a memo.
You can also ALWAYS mention the words "third party legal representation" to help them 'see the light'. I hope you feel justified in protecting this right to the point of taking an active response to their 'mistake'. Good luck, and thank you for joining. ;)

Hal Prentice said… - This is at Wells Cathedral in Wells, Somerset, England. The steps lead right to the chapter house and straight on to other offices. Yes, it is an impressive and beautiful place. You will notice the indentations in the steps from centuries of wear. Glad you like the photo. It is one of my favorites.

When In Doubt
Posted on November 9, 2012 at 10:04am 2 Comments 3 Likes
So, you find yourself questioning the existence of your god. No matter your religion, that’s pretty frightening. All these years, raised to believe that an all-knowing, all-loving being was out there, somewhere, and that he had a plan for you. That your parents and community knew the ‘Truth.’ Most importantly, you’ve been instructed that when you die -if you followed all the rules, or asked for forgiveness- you’d join your loved ones for eternity in a paradise of sorts.
Maybe this…

blue pashmina posted a blog postNot believing in an afterlife does not mean i am a "sad' person.
I work in healthcare in a long term care facility and I deal with death on a regular basis. About a year ago the opportunity arose for me to take a palliative care course through my work. I enjoyed it for the most part. It dealt with topics such as end of life care, pain relief and addressing the spiritual needs of different individuals based on their religious beliefs.There was one instance however that was decidedly unpleasant, and unfortunately really overshadowed the rest of my time in the…See More
