Look at his helmet…

I love how the gully is absolutely filled with actual tumbleweeds.

This did make it impossible to traverse, however. It’s literally ten feet of tumble weeds.

That is the cutest dog I have ever seen!! Your a great photographer.

in awe.

Religious “thinkers” often like to haul up Einstein quotes… but I am not sure why. To prove what? Smart people can have faith?

This “argument” can go on forever, because your “arguments” don’t need proof. If you believe something exists, for you it does, and you can point to the similarly deluded and say “See! they think the same thing!!!”

There is a transcendent beauty in existence that your religious self-deception does not allow you to experience because it means letting go of the myths you depend on to structure your life. “If Jesus isn’t real, then what is?”

And there it is: you’re afraid of what you don’t know, and that fear of the unknown is the source of all myths. You need the myths to explain away the darkness, and to give you hope in this “confusing” world.

Your mythic worldview is simply no longer adequate, not open enough to encompass our ever expanding perspective of our place in the universe. You have to fight back the creeping awareness that you spent too long dreaming about heaven, and not enough time living honestly.

I don’t need faith, belief, or anything external to directly experience the pure, simple, beautiful truth of what it is to exist. Direct experience is not science and it’s not intelligence: it is what is. You don’t need a church, a leader, or a book.

You need only courage, curiosity, and honesty.

Anyways, I am more interested in the pope’s golden throne than his Jesus costume.

Ever wonder who pays for the golden throne that every religion’s leader sits upon?

It was vulgar in parts, funny in others. Tasty!

Caught! I wonder what the legal parameters are for the person in the car… given they’re probably the only ones that could be tracked down. Regardless, don’t make drug deals from your car!

I want to scoop them both up and hold them at the same time! Super cuddly…

Still watching this again and again. I want a DVD of these to keep on all day.

Were you guys babysitting? She is such a cutie! (Liss is cute too;)
