I noticed the other day that it's been almost two years since my last blog post. It went quick. A lot of stuff has happened in the two years since my last post about Wikileaks.
Maybe you were beginning to think I was abducted by some shadowy covert operation, who tortured me for information for several months before I escaped and skirted death several times before outwitting my opponents and exposing them for the villains they really are!
No, not even close.
Chalk it up to a little laziness, a little bit of life and a little bit of Writing work that took up a bunch of time and then collapsed faster then a dying star (how fast do stars collapse into black holes? Info for another post!).
I've decided to start writing more prose work and publish it as e-books through Amazon (Thanks, Tom!). If I can sell a short story through normal channels every now and then, so much the better. I'll keep everyone posted.
Add to that my normal work schedule, trying to get to the gym three times a week and doing stuff around the house, I'm going to need to be organized about this. Right now, I'm looking at one post per week here so check back every week or so.
I ran across this article last night. The Star Trek-like warp drive is more likely than scientists ever thought and that's good news. Our sun won't last forever. We need to be a space-faring race in order to survive and, who knows, maybe by being a space-faring race we'll actually realize what Star Trek has been trying to tell us for 40+ years; that human beings, regardless of race, can work together for the common good of all.
Another interesting article I came across is this one. A scrap of ancient papyrus that mentions Jesus' wife. That's right, wife. I don't see what the big deal is. It makes sense that Jesus would have a wife. He was a human being with the same urges and needs that all human beings have. No, I don't believe that he was the literal Son of God. To be honest, I'm not entirely sure that "God" exists.
Which brings me to another article I came across! A lot of good stuff happening on the Science front!
I'm sure many people who read this post will be up-in-arms about my non-belief in God. In my mind, it just doesn't make sense. Yes, I still catch myself saying things like, "God bless" or "God only knows" but I chalk that up to my Catholic upbringing. Does my personal belief that "God" doesn't exist make me an evil person? Of course not. I'm still me. A nice guy with a wacky sense of humor with an affinity for comic books, British humor and cartoons.
Talk to you soon.

if matter can neither be created or destroyed (scientific principle) then where did all the matter come from on the first place?
ReplyDeleteWhat came first; the chicken or the egg?
DeleteIt's easy to just throw up your hands and say, "I can't explain it so it must be God." and that's due to over 2,000 years of the Church culture, essentially, brainwashing people to believe in God AND that they MUST go to Church in order to worship God correctly, which is rubbish.
As for Matter, it basically was "created" during the "Big Bang" but I wasn't present to know the particulars of cooling molecules and atoms so it must be the work of God. ;P
