Feminism and Christianity are incompatible. That's according to Rachel Wilson in her book Occult Feminism: The Secret History of Women's Liberation (2021). I think that is perhaps The Great Debate. The author makes a compelling case. I agree with much of what she has to say. The book is well researched and sourced. Let's talk about it. … Continue reading Feminism and Christianity

Summer Nights
It's officially summer, as of last Sunday, so I thought this short video apropos. Have summer nights changed? All things considered. I made it back in the summer of 2009. Which, I can make the case for as the best of my life. (That might be worthy of blog--tier ranking summers.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2LZtXZNDGw Then and Now … Continue reading Summer Nights
Scenes From A Marriage
Scenes From A Marriage is a 2021, HBO, adaptation of a 1973 book and series by Ingmar Bergman. The modern version is depressing, moving, thought provoking; and might be true. I've not yet watched the final episode; but felt compelled to say something because it coincides with my reading Occult Feminism: The Secret History of … Continue reading Scenes From A Marriage
The State of the Union
The State of the Union address Tuesday was amazing! Because it showed, without a doubt in my mind, two distinct personality structures. Let's get into it. The Speech that President Trump gave was great! As was his delivery and production. However, the Democrats, and liberals in general (not all) were dour and glum. If not … Continue reading The State of the Union
ICE’s Impact in US’ cities
ICE's impact in US' cities today is similar to what happened in Iraq twenty-two years ago. This just occurred to me as I was having a morning chat with my niece, over coffee. With me, the way my brain is wired, one thing (topic) leads quickly to another. Trump calls this "the weave". [In session, … Continue reading ICE’s Impact in US’ cities
My Garden is my Life
My garden is my life. However, maybe not how you'd think. I'm moving, I've mentioned before. Which usually means that you have to leave your garden, too. But that's not the case with me. Because I take that which is important to me, with me. Psych-girl, last session, didn't get it.* Lately, She and I … Continue reading My Garden is my Life
Letters to My Son & Road Angels: author Kent Nerburn
She sat looking at me, keeping the pad turned to the page with the evidence on it. I didn't have a retort. I looked back at her with a 'So, go on' face. She did. "There is another contemporary author, Kent Nerburn, a theologian, and he points out the fact that no one wants to sit … Continue reading Letters to My Son & Road Angels: author Kent Nerburn
Outer Range: Smash or Pass?
Outer Range is a combination of two of my favorite TV series. Its second season is now streaming on Prime and it's reported to be the number one show. What it is is: a SiFi contemporary western drama/thriller. The two shows it borrows from are Yellowstone and Outlander. Can you guess the story? Let's get into it. Here we … Continue reading Outer Range: Smash or Pass?
Jack’s Eulogy
My brother Jack was sweet, gentle, and kind. He was two years older than me--born at the close of summer in 1947 at Bolling Air Field in the District of Columbia. Which is not to say he didn't get angry - he did. However, I think, that he thought it was a sin to show … Continue reading Jack’s Eulogy
