The Passion of the Christ

I finally got the opportunity to see The Passion of the Christ on Friday night. Well the first half anyway. Now my not having seen it, long before Friday of course, wasn’t necessarily a case of me not wanting or avoiding seeing it. As it was the opportunity never presented itself. And, by no means, did it hurt there are literally thousands of film makers film’s I’d rather watch before watching one from Mel Gibson. I digress.

Keep in mind I know next to nothing concerning Jesus Christ. Not that I necessarily have any issues with finding out. But I have priorities, and reading about the life and times of Jesus of Nazareth hasn’t ever ranked very high on a reading list for me. This is neither a historical or a religious commentary toward the significance of this film. This is merely a couple of first impressions from a piece of entertainment. Taken at face value…

Out Of Step

Ever get the feeling you’re the only one in the world with their head on “right?” Well, for me, today is just one of those days.

For the past few years I’ve been undergoing a rather aggressive regimen of a rather “traditional” therapy. And I just had a “dose” of that therapy. Anyway my therapist and I have been talking about a new avenue of therapy her and her husband have recently been exploring. Last week she was supposed to email me with further details regarding it, in the form of a web address I assume, but, since then, she has informed me they have been looking at different “sources” for the “technique.”

Honestly I’m not entirely sure of what she is looking at or for that matter hoping to accomplish. But I’m always open to looking at variety, especially where my therapy is concerned. If it makes sense to me.. Continue reading Out Of Step

Feelings

Q: What bias, oppression, etc. do you feel towards others and/or do others feel towards you as a result of your accident and do you feel this has changed on an individual, community or policy level since your accident?

I try, very hard not feel any serious preconceived emotions toward anything. If what you’re asking is do I feel anger towards “God,” my answer is simply no. I’d rather use my energy productively. And believing in a God is, in my opinion everything but a valuable use of time.

And before you assume my lack of belief stems from what happened to me, I assure you it has not. In fact being through everything I’ve been through has only strengthened my resolve. Trust me. Continue reading Feelings

Clarification

I probably should clarify a few things from my last post American Fascists. Woah, don’t everyone complain at onceâ€¦

Honestly? I’ve got more to say on the subject. I won’t be long. Those who know me or have seen my F.A.Q.‘s, one frequently asked question, in particular. About God and whether I believe in one, could take my impressions of the book, or the book itself (save that one quote stipulating “we’re Christian,” of course) as anti-Christian or anti-belief in God. And while I make my views known, I’m not anti anything. Continue reading Clarification
