After I picked myself some weird pods growing in the woods, the clouds burst open! So I wrapped ‘em up and took them home so they’d be safe when I opened ‘em up. C:

I drunk dialed you on Thursday
It wasn’t sad but it was funny
And towards the end it was sleepy
Peaceful
That’s all I took from it - I remembered how still and warm you made me feel when it was just you and me…no holds barred.

I loved the man you allowed yourself to be when you were mine.
I still do.

Raymond Chandler reminds us to stay humble, as our wits are about as eternal as the food turning soft in our fridge (I’m looking at you cabbage…).

“Cleverness, like perhaps strawberries, is a perishable commodity.”

I find quote-hoarding to be a fabulous method of borrowing the knowledgable thoughts of others when my own fails.

George Bernard Shaw warned us to “Beware of false knowledge; it is more dangerous than ignorance.”

Shaw is a fabulous person to quote, I rely on his words liberally and often. Also, full disclosure that I’m an anthropology major by trade and got a substantial kick out of fitting the ‘armchair anthropologists’ joke into this one (a term that refers to academics who don’t venture too far outside the library and hide from actual fieldwork – a crime anthropologists were especially guilty of in the early years of the discipline).

For the Doubters - Michael Gungor

For the Doubters - Michael Gungor:

gospelofthekingdom:

I’m not a huge fan of apologetics, but this article almost brought me to tears. Here are the axioms Christian-turned-atheist-turned-Jesus-Follower, Mike McHargue, came up with to continue to practice his Christianity in an intellectually honest way, even during seasons of extreme doubt. For my friends who wrestle with doubt I highly recommend reading. For those this doesn’t help, kindly ignore.

OK, my little system is AT LEAST, EVEN IF. I provide definitions for religious concepts in the form of axioms in a manner that is compatible with naturalism (falsifiable and provable). Even in the sciences, we must admit we don’t have a complete understanding of most concepts, so AT LEAST could be applied to natural concepts too (the Universe, gravity, etc.)

Basically, this is a ground floor which doubt can dip no further. It allows us to always feel intellectually honest about pursuing God, religious ritual, fellowship and even Jesus himself.

God is AT LEAST the natural forces that created and sustain the Universe as experienced via a psychosocial construct rooted in evolved neurologic features in humans. EVEN IF that is a comprehensive definition for God, the pursuit of this personal, subjective experience can provide meaning, peace and empathy for others and is warranted.

Prayer is AT LEAST a form of mediation that encourages the development of healthy brain tissue, lowers stress and can connect us to God. EVEN IF that is a comprehensive definition of prayer, the health and psychological benefits of prayer justify the discipline.

The Bible is AT LEAST a set of writings where a people group describes their experience with and understanding of God over thousands of years. EVEN IF that is a comprehensive definition of God, study of scripture is warranted to understand our culture and the way in which people come to know God.

Jesus is AT LEAST the idea of a man so connected to God that he was called the Son of God and the largest religious movement in human history is centered around his teachings; he was very likely a real person. EVEN IF this is all Jesus is, following his teachings can promote peace, empathy, and genuine morality.

Shalom and love,
Michael

Thank you.
