I think I'm going to write a commentary on Christianity in America called "It's in the Bible so it Must Be Okay." There will be the following Chapters: "The Burning Bush" (religion and american politics) "The Breastplate of Rye-Cheese-Mess" (watered down, or "accessable" Christianity), "Caution, Jesus is God," (Jesus and fear), "The Most Segregated Hour," (segregation of the Church--that's Church with a capital C), "Join my Cult" (Christian Organization).
And then I will be slaughtered.

My grandma Bonner has been in the hospital. She's at a point now where she has to decide whether to get life-risking surgery or be in pain and never be able to walk again. I know that I would want to take the risk (rather be dead than in pain), but I don't want her to take the risk. What a curious place to be. I'm so selfish.

Okay, I can't figure this out about myself. I love politics. I love talking about politics. It's very hard for me to admit, really, because I think talking about politics is as pointless as talking about whether there is life on other planets. But today I met with Kristina, a friend from way back when, and I was just thrilled to ask her what she thought of various political issues (she's a poli-sci major.) And I noticed on my trip, politics came up again and again and again.
Oh, I also want you all to ask yourself, "Do I believe in ghosts?" It's a decision we all must make at some point in our lives. (That's what I told Lisa. I also told her that whether there is life on other planets is one of these decisions.)
