this place, that place
it no longer matters where i am

everyday

sorry God

evolutionists encouraging non-critical thinking

whoever still believes that all evolutionists are pro critical thinking, whereas people who believe in creationism are all trying to deny progress, have not looked at society recently.

quote from: http://today.reuters.com/news/

COLUMBUS, Ohio (Reuters) - In another setback for those who want schools to question the theory of evolution, Ohio education officials voted on Tuesday to remove a first-in-the-nation lesson plan that allowed teachers to do so.

By a vote of 11 to 4, the Ohio Board of Education pulled a model lesson plan on the subject it had approved in 2004 and sent the matter to a committee for revisions, according to J.C. Benton, spokesman for the state's education department.

He said the lesson plan in question permitted science teachers to encourage students to look at questions about evolution -- something that proponents of "intelligent design" generally call "teaching the controversy."

The lesson plan did not specifically mention intelligent design, the concept that God or some other higher intelligence must have been responsible for what happened in evolution from the start and through the process.

Benton said the optional lesson plan had been available to Ohio schools since it was approved but it was not known how many science teachers may have elected to use it.

The board had come under pressure from science groups to pull the lesson plan. Ohio was the first state to adopt such a teaching instruction.

The vote was at least the second major setback for proponents of intelligent design. Last year in Pennsylvania a federal court ruled that the theory could not be taught in a public school in that state which had required it. The school board in Dover, Pennsylvania, which had approved the teaching, was voted out of office.

i'm looking for a church to call home and major reason i left

[...]
[23:15] sparrow :: Love:God be my witness: i know... i want everyone to be more critical to think for themselves and not be spoon fed, i want all of the church to have individual strong pursued relationships with God
[23:15] sparrow :: Love:God be my witness: as well as a strong sense of community
[23:16] sparrow :: Love:God be my witness: but i won't try to achieve it by spawning discord among brother's and sisters and seperating the church i do have good memories of at occasional points in my life
[23:17] sparrow :: Love:God be my witness: the Bible is clear about this, not to seperate the church
[23:17] sparrow :: Love:God be my witness: not to make divides within it
[23:18] sparrow :: Love:God be my witness: it also says however that fellowship with brothers and sisters is important (censored name)
[23:18] sparrow :: Love:God be my witness: and this is why i brought it up
[23:20] sparrow :: Love:God be my witness: maybe it's time we found such a fellowship for ourselves

Anyone who cares enough about me to take me in?
and if he's willing i'm bringing (censored name) too! ;P

22But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. 24Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its passions and desires. 25Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. 26Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other.

to you

i wish i could make everything all better with you and for you.
you have the ultimate say so in your life
i understand you won't always want, and i'm not always able
but you'll find me willing when you want and ready

Wouldn't It Be Nice - Beachboys

Wouldn’t it be nice if we were older
Then we wouldn’t have to wait so long
And wouldn’t it be nice to live together
In the kind of world where we belong

You know it’s gonna make it that much better
When we can say goodnight and stay together

Wouldn’t it be nice if we could wake up
In the morning when the day is new
And after having spent the day together
Hold each other close the whole night through

Happy times together we’ve been spending
I wish that every kiss was neverending
Wouldn’t it be nice

Maybe if we think and wish and hope and pray it might come true
Baby then there wouldn’t be a single thing we couldn’t do
We could be married
And then we’d be happy

Wouldn’t it be nice

You know it seems the more we talk about it
It only makes it worse to live without it
But lets talk about it
Wouldn’t it be nice

which one is me, how can they both be?

he sped up the stairs seeing the metro doors caught in suspension, something must have been in their way momentarily; but now whatever it was, was gone and they would close.
up the stairs, racing. the last stretch between the platform and the stairs, racing.
he made it just in time the doors closing, touching his backpack...

taking a breath he looked around, an older woman watched him smiling; and why not he thought, why shouldn't simple and elementary accomplishments bring smiles from us, he had just raced through the doors and succeeded in getting by, a minor personal accomplishment granted, but what did its weight matter? so smile he did as well.

sitting here, he received a phone call; his brother's spouse, his sister in law; asked for the whereabouts of his brother and mother. having been answered with cluelessness, she informed him that they were probably at the hospital, his father had just gotten his operation. didn't he know? he had been praying for the past while, asking for prayers; so why did he not feel. why is he numb of fear, numb of sympathy and of love.

how can i know to take the slight joys of life to heart, but not feel when it comes to things so important to me? who am i?

why do we go only half the way?

she watched him, and he watched her;
does she recognize me? i cannot see her well enough, do i know her?
continues to probe his mind for a recollection of recognition...

she seats herself in an opposing seat, they've already acknowledged each others' presence;
it's impolite to stare, glances... wonders...
...i think i know... i think i remember...
now, i remember, she used to get off at the same stop before i moved, at some point i said next time i saw her again on this bus that i'd talk to her; but things have changed, i've moved, and we no longer have the bus stop in common; things have changed, ppl change, i'm so tired.
he closes his eyes for a bit to avoid having to own up to what he said to himself in the past.

wakes unable to doze, assumes a amused smile. suprised, he recognized her after so long and with my inability to recognize ppl; let's see if i am right.
she gets off on Napoleon... yes i was not mistaken, amusement to having remembered brings a smile, but a missed opportunity to get to know yet another person adds an emptiness.

people walk in the public eye, many wanting to be noticed; but once each acknowledge each other, the failure to admit it by means of commitment(though we fear it, for sake of commiting w/o knowing), defeats us.
