About Me
I'm a writer. I have a few fiction projects, but mostly write about philosophy, theology, and sociology. I'm a vegetarian. I have 3 grown kids.

I'd like to meet:

Honestly, everyone I'd like to meet is dead (except, of course, God). Mother Theresa, Ghandi, Srila Prabhupada, Emerson, Thoreau, Tolstoy, Einstein, Mozart, Dickens, Alexander the Great, Ramses II, and Socrates.

The few living people that might be interesting to talk to are Stephen Hawkins, Ravi Shankar, and Roger Waters.

Activities:

I love to hike, but only if I can call it "walking". Hiking sounds like too much work. I play keyboards. I also love looking for rocks. I don't keep any of them, I just like looking at them. Hmm, what else....Oh, I love playing Euchre.

Interests:

Love to read just about anything except romance novels and sports. I love to discuss philosophy, science, theology, and sociology. Any intellectual discussion captures my interest. I'm interested in the science of the soul, and self-realization, and God consciousness.

Favorite Music:

Pink Floyd, Roger Waters, Elton John, Kenny Wayne Shepard, Jon Anderson, Martin Page, Peter Gabriel, Genesis (but not Phil Collins solo), Norah Jones, Tracy Chapman, Joe Satriani, Al Demiola, Alanis Morrisett, Pearl Jam. Too many to list, but you get the gist. Hate rap, grunge, pop.

Favorite TV Shows:

Jeopardy; Family Guy; Nova; History Channel; Biography Channel; Indy Film Channel.

Favorite Movies:

Once Upon a Time in America; The Life of David Gale; Schindlers List; Purgatory; The Usual Suspects; Slingblade; Snatch;

Favorite Books:

The Bhagavad Gita, As it Is; Dialectic Spiritualism; The Pillars of the Earth: War and Peace: Nicholas Nickelby; A Prayer for Owen Meany; Pride and Prejudice; Walden; Srimad Bhagavatam; The Illiad; too many more to list.

Favorite Quotes:

"The unexamined life is not worth living" - Aristotle
"Just give up all these varieties of religion, and surrender to me" - Krishna
"As long as there are slaughterhouses, there will be battlefields" - Tolstoy

Favorite Heroes:

Mother Theresa, Ghandi, Martin Luther King, Jr., Srila Prabhupada, Jesus Christ, Solomon the Wise, and Firemen.

  • Ah, the federal reserve, that is a whole new discussion. Are you sure you want to get into that? LOL
    My arguement is not to prohibit anyone from doing whatever their religion requires unless it hurts people or animals or forces their belief onto others. My problem is with the religous people who think it is okay for time to be taken out of learning time in schools so their kid can pray or for us to follow on set of religious rules that were made into laws or motos for a country that is not made up of one religion.

  • Bob blocked me so I couldn't respond to you on his poll, so here is my response to you:

    Let me clarify what I meant by public buildings, I was talking about government buildings.
    You do an awesome job of blowing things out of proportion Lori. Are you always so dramatic or is it just this topic?
    Most hospitals are privately owned, some libraries are, stores are privately owned, churches can do whatever they believe in, people can do what they want in their own yards, private schools can do what they want, and cemeteries are privately owned. The headstone is up to the person who buys the plot of land in cemetery as to what is on their headstone.
    Praying in government buildings and public schools and have religious slogans on American money and seals is not okay.
