Torture

Torture...................................................................................................................................................................................... taking place by the hands of a nation that claims to be "Christian"......................................................................................................Do people actually read the gospels????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Anyways..... I went to Chicago. It was fun and we walked to a lot of places. It made me miss Ohio. I could not live in that city.... I remember when we were pulling up and i was talking to Kelly about how i could live here....then i spent the weekend in Chicago and realized i could never live there...very elite....
I felt insecure and had a strong desire to cut my hair and shave my face. I started to look around me and i felt so out of place. I thought that all of my beliefs about living a simplistic, under the radar, kind of life seemed insane...
but then i saw the movie "into the wild" while in chicago and realized once again why i love to live the way i live...
so ... kick in your television screen, all it wants to tell you is that your not good enough, give away your life and sit in silence, read your bible or any good book, drink coffee (fair-trade) and good wine...hang out with people, love your loved ones, hate wars and ride your bike...peace.
however...i forgot..i went to the Darwin Musuem and it was awesome. evolution does not bother me... for some odd reason it has always made my faith more real... and it seems like it is pretty hard to disprove.. i am sure that will make some people mad... but...oh well. i have seen the corny christian arguements for creation and all...but... i think evolution is creation......and darwin had a sweet man beard.

aaahhh Chicago....sounds like fun. McLaren has some captivating thoughts about 'evolution as creation' in A New Kind of Christian. Have you read it?

Also...I have heard there is a "Creation Museum" on the westside of Cincy. Have you been there?
(would love to hear your comparative review some time)
