I'm interested in religion (BTW, I'm an atheist agnostic), law, politics, pop culture, and a whole bunch of other stuff. My user name is a vestige of my original reason for opening this account, i.e., to "favorite" (and keep in one convenient location) videos I wanted to show in class about, for example, the Japanese internment during World War II. I came up with a user name that seemed easy to remember. Several months later, I decided to try my hand at making a video and, well, the rest is ... um, 'history' would be too strong a word. ;-)

Since the channel has grown a great deal, it's become difficult to keep up with all the messages and comments. I try to get back to everyone, but often don't get to do so quickly. So, please be patient. Thanks.

BTW, I'm legal clergy. So if you're looking for a WEDDING OFFICIANT, I just might be your man. :-)

FAVORITE QUOTATIONS:

"Freedom to differ is not limited to things that do not matter much. That would be a mere shadow of freedom. The test of its substance is the right to differ as to things that touch the heart of the existing order."

"Compulsory unification of opinion achieves only the unanimity of the graveyard."

(The brilliant Supreme Court Justice Robert Jackson in the 1943 case West Virginia Board of Education v. Barnette.)


"The aim of life is to live, and to live means to be aware, joyously, drunkenly, serenely, divinely aware."

(Henry Miller)


"When any opinion leads us into absurdities, it is certainly false...."

(David Hume in "A Treatise of Human Nature")


"God is dead, but given the way of men, there may still be caves for thousands of years in which his shadow will be shown."

(Friedrich Nietzsche)


"If we praise Jesus by singing all together, it makes this whole exercise seem less bizarre than it really is when you actually stand back and examine it with some objectivity. Amen."

(Hymn from a church service scene on "Family Guy")


"O Moses! You stubborn, splendid, adorable fool!"

(Anne Baxter in "The Ten Commandments")


"Love the believer, not the belief."

(Via one of my subscribers: Wimsweden)


"It is central to the Christian apologist's project to find ways to make the Bible right."
