Someday, I will write a brilliant post on the topic, but for now, I will leave a teaser. I was thinking about the Incarnation, Plato, and Dr. Who, and I love some of the correlations I have found. Plato's theory of the form combined with an understanding of the love of God sheds light on how God can both love me in all my sin from day to day while having a perfect image of who and what I was made to be, a part of his pure, spotless bride all at the same time. He knows my form, and he knows me. And being God, he can keep it all straight. God and Dr. Who. God is not a part of time, he is outside of time. So, as time is one sort of timey-wimey bubble thing, I can pray about events that happened twenty years ago and God can still act in that moment to both hear my prayer at present and act on my prayer at the recipients present. I love it when my head explodes. Dear Lord, please make seminary affordable so I can have it happen more often?

Back?

Hi Ho the Blog is Dead! Oh wait....there is a bit of a heartbeat! Or is there? Maybe its a vegetated blog? Veggi-blog? Maybe its a Vega-blog that talks in its sleep. Well, let's go with that. Its been almost a year since I last posted. Not much has changed really. I still face the eternality of the internet word with some severe misgivings. Just think, whatever you post, no matter what your security screenings are, some very bright moron out there can probably find it from anywhere. Except, fortunately, there are about 6 billion people out there all flooding cyber space with useless, important, vital, banal, hilarious, witty, erudite, senseless, and absolutely wizard verbage round the clock, which means the chances of any random stranger finding your words is rather less than .000001%. Anonymity is a beautiful thing.
