I have mixed feelings about identifying as a Christian, for all sorts of reasons.
But I’m a Christian more than I’m a member of any other religion, even if I’m not especially good at Christianing.

What is God? Our Source, Our Home, and Our Destination.
Saying much more than that is probably one trim level more than we can afford.

Doing things the hard way for the sake of doing things the hard way is a fool’s game. Being bullheaded is not a virtue.

In the beginning was the Market, and the Market was with God, and the Market was God. The Market was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through the Market, and without the Market not one thing came into being. In the Market was life, and the life was the light of all. #gnosis

I have little patience for people who assume other people are just sitting around hoping someone, anyone will give them something, anything to do. And that they’re the one to tell them what that thing is.

9x/10 when a conservative person uses 'christian' in a political context they mean White. Needing an internal word to refer to themselves, they came up with 'evangelical' to mean White christian – it checks the socially active, conservative, government engaged, believe in God, White , boxes.

White evangelicals are doing what they’re doing on purpose. It’s not accidental. They’re not just being led along. They want it this way.
By 2019, it was obvious they were acting *intentionally*.
That's loaded biblical term. It means they deny the truth they might know for what they know is wrong.
It means they aren't hypocrites, they are practicing what they believe.

A theology hero of mine has passed away. Sexism and God-Talk changed my life for the better in no small way.
