Ah! I used to be like that. For years I wanted to be a nurse - even took extra courses in high school to prepare myself for it. After a year and a half of it in college I changed my major to Psychology and found myself in the very uncomfortable position of not knowing exactly what it was I wanted to do anymore.

Now I have IDEAS and PLANS, but I know it could all change without a moment's notice. That's still uncomfortable for me, I know things may not work out the way I want them to, but I'm pretty okay with it.

Rufus: He still digs humanity, but it bothers Him to see the shit that gets carried out in His name - wars, bigotry, televangelism. But especially the factioning of all the religions. He said humanity took a good idea and, like always, built a belief structure on it.

Bethany: Having beliefs isn't good?

Rufus: I think it's better to have ideas. You can change an idea. Changing a belief is trickier. Life should malleable and progressive; working from idea to idea permits that. Beliefs anchor you to certain points and limit growth; new ideas can't generate. Life becomes stagnant.

Rufus: Are you saying you believe?

Bethany: No. But I have a good idea.

Besides having a crush on Linda Fiorentino, I think Dogma is one of the best movies of all time... give or take a few. ;-)

Yay for Dogma!

I love that movie and I've owned it for years. I loved it even when I was still a Christian, because so many of the IDEAS of Christianity expressed in that movie are true.

Now I gotta go watch it again...
