I am Pissed!!

In our neighborhood there are no loose dogs running around. Our neighbors have a dog that is in a fenced area and our other neighbors have a dog that they keep in their garage and sometimes let it run in the back yard.  Our houses are about 15 feet apart on either side of our home.  I walked out to put the trash in the can that is located between our homes and found dog poop all over the ground near my trashcan.  Read what I said in the sentence before, We have no loose dogs.  They must keep it in the garage and the feel the need to sweep the poop right out the garage door that is located directly across from my trashcan.   That PISSES me off to no ends and I take the snow shovel and I scoop it right back into their yard.  I have done it several times now and I guess that they don't get the picture.  Please do not be trashy and keep their crap in their yard and not mine!

Hollywood Walk of Fame?

How the hell does or is Miley Cyrus even close to getting a star?  Actors and Actresses go their whole life without getting a star until they are dead and she at all of what 15 is about to get one?  What a load of crap!!  Those stars used to mean something like you were an established actor, not some tween star from the Dumnsey channel.  That just pisses me off to no ends.   It just goes to show you the state that Hollywood is in.

Religious Shift...

It has been my experience that if you don't grow or change that you die. Take for instance the Catholic Church. Nowhere in the Bible does it say you cannot marry. Then take for example all of the issues with homosexual priests over the last 40+ years. This happens few and far between in Protestant religions of the world. I am a Methodist. It is a centrist religion as is many others like Episcopalian, Lutheran, and Baptist to a lesser extent. When I was in high school, the UMYF (United Methodist Youth Fellowship) was very crucial to me as it was a place to go and be with other teens in a safe environment. Many teens attended and it was held at different people’s houses every week and at the church on Sunday Evening.

You have to bring Religion to the people and relate it in a way that they can understand! Hellfire and Brimstone Baptist sermons are just not current to today’s populace. That is why I feel that many of the “Community” Churches are growing much more than say the Baptist Religion. Tell me where in the Bible it says that you can’t dance. We held dances after the football games and all the Baptist kids attended them as well as any other religion that we had in town. The Methodist Religion is growing by leaps and bounds due to the fact that they offer more to the people and the teen population. The Methodist Church we attend has a youth group that is well over 100+ teens that go to it. They have events that happen during the week and on Sunday evening. They have a youth band that performs at the church. You see? Bring something to the people and you have their attention. You have a safe haven for the youth that are the life-blood of the church for the new century. Without a strong youth program, the church will wither away, not grow, and finally die. I have seen it happen to many “back woods” churches as well as it can happen to city churches. I talked to a preacher over the weekend about this issue and he told me something very startling. He said that the Methodist Churches in that area were dieing due to them not changing with the times. The area is Southeast Texas, which is not the norm that I have seen but then I have not been in that area for many years, so I tend to believe him.

I guess what I am trying to convey is that if Religion as a whole does not grow and change to meet the times it will be a dead entity. I have dealt with many religious people in my time on earth, from religious fanatics to the atheist. People who try to push their religion on me, even though they mean well, turn me off to what they are saying. I can see that they try to “help” me, but some things I need to find out for myself, or ask the questions and not have their views pressed upon me. Likewise, nonreligious persons need not apply either. I believe what I believe and don't need your rhetoric either. People who spout off to be “holy” and if we place our faith in them surly fall just as Oral Roberts, Swaggart and Jim Baker. They lose their cred by being mightier than thou and condemning you for your view for they are the Religious Right or far Left and not centrist. just a few thoughts of mine.

Well, I am off for I have a few things to take care off around the house…

Thought for today...

Christianity proposes to endow the individual with an eternal happiness, a good which is not distributed wholesale, but only to one individual at a time. !Postscript! Soren Kierkegaard 1846 Posted via my LGVX8600 phone.

The systemic Idea is the identity of subject and object, the unity of thought and being-Idealism- Existance, on the other hand, is their separation-Existentialism- !Postscript! Soren Kierkegaard 1846 Posted via my LGVX8600 phone.

MC 900 Ft Jesus - While the city sleeps (1990)

I light the fires while the city sleeps...

Max Graham- Owner of a Lonely Heart (2005)

The original track was played by "Yes" in 1984 from the album 90125. It is a classic track and this mix is not to bad.

BT - Flaming June (1997)

When this hit the clubs, it was on full force!! He was/is Progressive Trance even though he has far surpassed that genre. BT is an incredible artist. I have all of his albums and he is one artist that i support.

Faithless - Insomnia (1995)

Tearing off tights with my teeth...I cant get no sleep!!

Enigma - Sadeness (1990)

He was the first artist to break this style of music onto the mainstream. Sandra is the girl singing the female vocals.

Enigma- Push the Limits (2000)

The full length track is awesome! The intro to this track is called "The Gate" it is taken from the album "The Screen Behind The Mirror" I have been a big fan of Enigma since they first came out.

Depeche Mode - Clean (1990)

This reminds me of Nacogdoches Texas...SFA GO Jacks!!

Depeche Mode - Barrel Of A Gun (1997)

Flood did the production on this album

Depeche Mode - Stripped (1986)

This is one of my favorite videos from DM!!

Depeche Mode - It's No Good (1997)

What a great track and good video!

Mahnahmahnah!

I just love this!!!

Update...

We have been on the road a lot as of late.  Two weeks ago we were in Charlotte North Carolina for a Cheer contest.  Last weekend we were in Texas for 4 days for a wedding.  I am tired but I have still been going to the gym. I have not been able to ride my mountain bike and I miss it.  I hope to be able to ride in the next two weeks. I have been reading an Anthology of Soren Kierkegaard as of late as you have seen the “Thoughts For The Day” posts that are quotes from the book.   It is some interesting reading to say the least.  I am also reading a book by Neil deGrasse Tyson called “Death By Black Hole and Other Cosmic Quandaries.”  It is a very good read! Tyson has a unique ability to break down complex principals where the everyday reader can understand them.  Well, I need to go. So have a good evening!

Let teachers and priests and philosophers brood

over questions of reality and illusion.

I know this: if life is an illusion, then I

am no less an illusion, and being thus, the

illusion is real to me. I live, I burn with life, I

love, I slay, and I am content.

The minds of men so often yearn for might and power, and their thoughtr are constantly being drawn to such things, as if by there attainment all mysteries would be resolved. Philosphical Fragments -A- Soren Kierkengaard 1844 Posted via my LGVX8600 phone.

Thought for today...

Is an historical point of departure possible for an eternal consicious: how can such a point of departure have any other than a mere historical interest: is it poss to base an eternal happiness upon historical knowledge? Fragments Of Philosophy-Soren Kierkengaard 1844 Posted via my LGVX8600 phone.
