What is Worldview?

Monday, October 15th, 2007

Envision a line out of rocks.. This is the world, the laws of physics, of psychology, of anatomy… It is the shape of a lake, or a fjord or a fog..

Then see another line. It is glowing and almost geometric… it almost approximates kinda the first line….. Where it is closer to the center than the rock line, it is a taboo, and where it goes out beyond, it is magick… the land where ladies come back as lilies for their lover…

Ignorance keeps the glowing shape simple,
and wishful thinking keeps it beautiful

The difference between evangelists and fundamentalists

Wednesday, August 29th, 2007

I know many outside the “faith” community are insensitive and fail to differentiate evangelists and fundamentalists, lumping them together as some sort of boogie men. Well, let me set the record straight, they are different. We faithless people are insensitive, and must learn the subtleties of the respective movements. Evangelists are people who wish to widen the breadth at which their cult enstrangles* humanity. Fundamentalists, on the other hand, are those who wish to deepen the depth at which their cult enstrangles humanity.

On the subject of evangelism, this is a bit of Jesus-humor that is lost in the translation (kinda, like the riot, “Peter, you are my rock” HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHA!) You see, evangelist comes from the ancient Greek for “bringer of good news”, which is funny because they mostly warn about how hell is a real place that’s reserved for not doing what the good news-bringer tells you to do, which usually involves leaving your family and your culture and accidentally drowning yourself.

*enstrangle is a perfectly crumulent word
