My Faith Is Autistic
I am coming to grips with the fact that I have never been a religious person. My heart just isn’t in it. I am a man of faith however because I know the gods are more diverse than all the books about them. I first started to question Christianity when I was about fourteen or…

Parental Visitation
My dad and mom stopped in for a visit. My dad isn’t doing very well with a lot of medical issues. He’s not in pain which is good. And he’s still got a lot of fight in him. I love them both but every visit I worry this will be the last time I see…

Lots of Weeks in this Month
It’s been a long month of long weeks. If it hasn’t been one thing it’s been another. I wanted to indulge. We ordered Papa John’s for everyone and I ate a whole medium pizza. I started my fast after finishing a bottled water. Now I have to wait to take my reflux pills until I…

Ben’s Bad Day
Ben had a bad day today. He needed extra meds. Soda was one of the few requests we could honor so he got a bunch of that. We promised him his respite worker but she had to call off at the last minute. When he asked for her we had to say No. He doesn’t…

Spider in the Kitchen
I’m a big fan of spiders. We usually just leave them alone. We’ve got a big ambush spider on the corner of one of the steps going into the basement. It has been there for weeks so it is obviously eating well. I’m cool with that. A little while ago I saw a chunk on…

Homeless Pork
My homeless friend came to get his mail today. He’s still unfortunately reporting our address as his place of residence. If the police come looking for him I will tell them the truth. He also brought four pounds of frozen pork. Well, he claims it was frozen when he got it. It was room temperature…

Skins
One of the people I love was hurt today. It was very intentional on the part of the attacker. I have trouble humanizing people like that. I don’t think they are even human today. Lower than pond scum. I looked up one of my favorite verses in the Quran and studied the Arabic. It basically…

Getting Older
We are all rushing toward death. Some days I can feel that more than others. The ride hasn’t been a gentle one for me. It’s always something. Perhaps I am not an outlier. Everyone works and everyone worries. I should not make that into a competition but I usually do. My life hasn’t been bad…

The Bible is Sometimes Wrong
I reject infallibility and inerrancy. I reject it for the Bible and I reject it for the Quran. The Book of Mormon acknowledges the faults of men in it. That is how I can hold all three books in my head at one time. There is only one good, one pure, and one perfect and…

Rice Pudding
My lovely wife Stephanie made rice pudding, and it is really good. In case I haven’t said it here lately I love her dearly because she is awesome. I am happily married. I am also happily eating her rice pudding. I told her that rice is better with sugar than it is with meat. That…
