Switching to Wordpress
I've decided to switch from LJ to a different site for blogging. I'm writing more seriously now and I want to separate my writing from all the personal stuff that's in this journal from before. So if you want to keep up with what I'm writing about, wander on over to my new Wordpress blog. I've imported the previous three posts to it so there'll be ( Read more... ) -
Suite101 new article: Angelic Layer
I decided that I had fun writing about Marmalade Boy, so I'd write another anime review, Angelic Layer this time. The anime section on Suite101 is pretty slim, really.

Suite101 new article: Marmalade Boy
I've got another article up. I decided I wanted to polish the book review some more first, so I ended up writing a review of the anime for Marmalade Boy, instead. It can be found here: Anime Review: Marmalade BoyI've seen the whole series all the way through, but at one point, I was actually watching it raw, without subtitles, to practice Japanese ( Read more... ) -

Theoretical Christians
I'm an engineer, and early in their training, engineers are taught to think in terms of theory and application. First you learn the theoretical principles by the book, and then you apply them to a project or real-world example. Theory by itself is never as good as application because theory can only be so accurate. It's the application to reality ( Read more... ) -

Sefer Torah Dedicated At Pentagon Chapel
So the US government is willing to put part of the Bible in the Pentagon, but they're forcing the removal of the Ten Commandments from our courts of law? Does this make sense to anyone? -
Finally the promised evidence...
I was going to write about something else, but I'm just going to post this part because I kept changing what I was saying. So basically I'm going to say a little bit about the evolution issue from the previous post that I was supposed to address and haven't done so until now. The reason for that is that I've been rethinking my purpose for doing ( Read more... ) -
Comments on my previous post
This started out as a response to what darekana wrote in a comment on my previous post, but it was getting really long for a comment, so I decided to just post it as a separate entry.
