Adventures in Wilderness 001

Great, now there goes my hat.
Anyone who's seen the Far Side comic on our fridge will get that. If you haven't, well come over and see it for God's sake.
You know I just struggled with the capitalization of the word 'God'. I capitalized it to be proper, then I said "fuck that, the man can't tell me how to live." and I decapitalized it. Then I decided that doing that was to acknowledge there was someone watching who I wanted to think wasn't watching me, which in turn would make me a believer, negating the fact that I decapitalized his name, and merely pissing him off. So I said "no fuck THAT, I am liberated, I will capitalize it and I'll use it in a sentence because it's only a figure of speech and nothing more. . ." But do I really believe that now? Can I call myself a true atheist when I struggle with capitalizing that word? Ah yes, a tangeant for another blog.
done!

oh my god did you ever blog. this might be something that i should have kept to myself, but everyone loves poop stories. so last night in my sleep (sleep here is not as nice as it is in the first world) i dreamt that i shit (which is kinda a big deal cause i'm currently riding the immodium AD roller coaster... shitting my brains out for a few days, then not shitting for a week) well anyway, it's been a while since i shit, but i dreamt about a shit, then woke up, and thought that maybe i shat the bed (a lovely phrase that my dad taught me) then relieved that i hadn't went back to sleep. soon after waking up i shat and it looked EXACTLY like my dream shit. i can see the future.

think about it this way. What kind of god gives a flying fuck about capitalization?
(i know i missed the crux of the argument but i thought it was a valid point)

It's not a question of belief, but of grammar. God is the name of the supreme Christian entity, just like Marcus is the name of the writer of this blog. I don't accepted Marcus as my one true saviour, but I do capitalize his name.
I've actually had this discussion before.

oh couse, I think it hits a little too close to home for all of us, but I would be lying if I said I didn't see the similarities between this and the stories of your last Moisie.
congrats on the Cream Cheese, that is a personal victory in the book of J Couse.
you have the same initials as Jesus.
