“Vintage Church” vs. “Pagan Christianity” – Magnolia Mountain
https://magnoliamountain.wordpress.com/2010/03/06/vintage-church-vs-pagan-christianity
Tie me to the rocks on the mountain my Savior made. 8220;Vintage Church” vs. “Pagan Christianity”. March 6, 2010. The Emerging church movement (if you want to call it by that name) raises some good questions, and give the question “What is the Church? The aforementioned review refers early and often to Methodist NT scholar Ben Witherington’s responses. Which are certainly worth the read. He aptly takes on many of the falacious and provocative claims of the book, and replaces them with (gasp! The historic...

The Ethics of Avatar – Magnolia Mountain
https://magnoliamountain.wordpress.com/2010/03/12/the-ethics-of-avatar
Tie me to the rocks on the mountain my Savior made. The Ethics of Avatar. March 12, 2010. I recently remembered that I meant to write something about. The reason I forgot? How much time can you really spend thinking about it? When I saw the film I pretty much had the reaction I thought I would. I was entertained, impressed by the special effects, annoyed by the stale dialog, bored by the plot, and rather embarrassed by the moments it started channeling. Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Cameron proves Hume wrong...

A page of questions and working theories about topics of theological, philosophical, and literary interest. maybe. Saturday, October 06, 2007. Give Lacan A Cookie. I've been reading Lacan as a part of a survey course, and I was quite amused to run into this critique of "evolutionism". I've thought something like this before, but it's interesting to hear it coming out of the mouth of a radically skeptical psychoanalyst:. Always implied in being [ l'etant.

The Icarus Cycle: July 2006
http://theicaruscycle.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
A page of questions and working theories about topics of theological, philosophical, and literary interest. maybe. Wednesday, July 26, 2006. Finding Christ in Eastern Storytelling. There is a very interesting difference between Eastern and Western stories. I've discovered this after a bit of indulgence in Eastern myth and modern Asian animation. In both cases, the interesting thing seems to be how the hero prevails (or falls) in the end. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Finding Christ in Eastern Storytelling.

The Icarus Cycle: Self-Image
http://theicaruscycle.blogspot.com/2007/06/self-image.html
A page of questions and working theories about topics of theological, philosophical, and literary interest. maybe. Thursday, June 28, 2007. I thought to myself. Though I am never one to knock a homily on the topic of self-reflection, I couldn't see the connection to the scripture reading. Only then did I notice the text on the scroll that St. John is pictured as holding in the large icon at the front of our church. "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand! Is what it is supposed to look like." a...

Truth and Beauty... Where Soul Meets Body: For 24 Hours...
http://somebeauty.blogspot.com/2007/04/for-24-hours.html
Truth and Beauty. Where Soul Meets Body. April 23, 2007. This is me not talking about the fact that we will be deciding our future tomorrow. See, if I were talking about it, my husband would need another 24 hours to have some space that wasn't filled with graduate school discussions. But seeing as how I'm not talking about it, I guess we'll have to (get to? Sit down tomorrow and decide our future. Question: How does one go about deciding their future? I can't imagine what he's feeling. 5/9/07, 10:09 PM.
