Bringing the Sexy Back

Woohoo! I'm back! Let's parTAY!!

I don't know about the rest of you (who will need to be personally notified about this important occurrence), but I'm really excited to be a fully present and contributing citizen of the world wide web once again. My two blogs, Engage and Reconstruction of Disbelief, have sat idle for months, and though I'm sure you've all been re-reading every word, every precious sentence, day after day, I do think its time for some fresh offerings; offerings plucked from the lush, expansive garden that is my enormous brain.

So yeah, let's get this party started!! (cue C&C Music Factory)

How about an intellectual appetizer, a tasty little nugget of thought, to begin our celebration? I can offer you the subject of liberty and the precise limits to the legitimate interference of collective opinion with individual independence. Or you may care to discuss the basis for morality in general. Does there exist a moral basis that could be called objective, or is it the rule that we merely adopt moral principles that seem to be the best in our own judgement? Perhaps moral precepts simply fall into our laps at birth, handed down to us by accident by the culture in which we are born. Who knows?? The only thing that is certain is that the answer will really get the party hopping! (cue "Love Shack", by the B52s)

For those who choose to skip the fluff and go straight for the main course, may I suggest a critique of various arguments for a creator as presented by several natural scientists of the 20th century? Perhaps we shall join together and participate in a discussion aimed at settling once and for all what, precisely constitutes a "quality" lifestyle. Afterwards, we could re-open the Bible and continue to discover startling facts and insights about God which we were previously unaware of. Once we knew God like our own brother, we could attempt to wrap our heads around natural selection. What is the story of Life on Earth? I suspect that whatever it is, it will make a fantastic bedtime story! No doubt we'll be good and tired and ready for bed after such an intellectual feast.

But first we must have dessert! There will be several choices to delight the palate. Some of us will discuss and analyze the integrity of knowledge. Others may dish up a bowl of Utopian society. Still, there will be more treats to sample, including the concerns of great thinkers in history. Finally, we'll drift off to sleep, newly inspired by a proclamation on the real treasures of "being" in this modern age.

Yeehaw!! This is going to be the best party ever!! Let's do this thang!! (cue Justin Timberlake's "Bring the Sexy Back")
