So, this morning Syd and I went to the Apple Store at the Mall of America and acquired one of the snazzy new iPads. First impressions are very good. It is light and fast and feels really good in my hands. It’s also a big step up from the iPhone that I’ve been living with for the last two years. I am actually typing this post on the iPad right now and aren’t you jealous?

I Don’t Believe in Theists
So, it’s lunchtime and I’ve been having a lovely day sitting at home working remote with my girl. I got up early, got the kiddo off to school, came home, learned how to make hollandaise sauce, threw together some eggs benedict, and set about my day. I decided to take a peek at my Google Reader feed over lunch and I read an infuriating little article about some bobsledder named Lyndon Rush who has taken advantage of his position as an Olympic athlete to tell the world that he doesn’t believe atheists exist. He goes on record as stating that there are no atheists at the top of bobsled runs, that he doesn’t believe in atheists, and that really, the people who claim to be atheists are simply living in some sort of denial or just not at the point in their life where they are ready to accept God.

The Coldest Hour Is Just Before The Dawn by The Akai
My life has been touched by many tragedies. Deaths and serious illnesses, rapes, murders, and suicides, I’ve seen them befall families and people I have known and loved. When one of these tragedies takes place, I’ve known the pain that they bring. I’ve also known the flip side of the coin. I’ve seen new lives come into the world, discovered new relationships in the fading shadows of old loves, and watched in wonder as, regardless of the tragedies, life keeps fighting, keeps extending itself. All life on this planet is one continuous process, one giant, branching, uninterrupted, tree of perpetual generation and re-generation going back to the time of the first self-replicating molecule, and it is beautiful, it is staggering, it is bigger in scope than the mind can comprehend.
