About Myself: This I Believe…
¨ I believe all people have an equal claim to life, freedom, tolerance and justice – and no law, government, majority, religion, ideology or prejudice can ethically deny, even one individual, equal opportunity to enjoy them.
¨ I believe in the universal application of love, without regard for divisive ideologies that capitalize on differences in race, religion, ethnicity, national origin, gender, or sexual orientation.
¨ I believe in an uncompromising commitment to ethics, freedom, equity, equality, justice and tolerance for all. These values should mandate the character of our faith. Any faith, religion, scripture, church or institution, whose teachings or policies threaten the quality of other people’s lives, should be abandoned.
¨ I believe empathy is the most noble of all virtues. It is only by way of empathy with those suffering, disenfranchised or repressed that we can achieve equity in our treatment of others.
¨ I believe there is no higher authority than reason and critical thinking. To question is the answer. Spiritual growth cannot occur unless we continue the search for better answers from a variety of sources. Institutions using sophistry to nurture absolute dogmas only nurture intellectual arrogance, impeding spiritual growth.
¨ I believe demagogic and simplistic answers do not do adequately or equitably address complex problems.
¨ I believe in moral relativism. Absolute dogmas and inflexible rules fail to serve the interests of social justice.
¨ I believe there are only human solutions to human problems. If we cannot do it, it will not get done. Any reliance upon supernaturalism impedes human progress.
¨ I believe that a single well-substantiated fact, irreconcilable with a belief, is sufficient to prove that belief false.

Title article: Girls Just Wanna Have Fun Chapter Deuce 1/2
Date: 2008-09-04 05:34:57
Potential
Well written. I think this story has potential. There are many unanswered questions. You have left us with a mystery. Why would a torturer feel sorry for his victim?

Title article: Bad Religion
Date: 2008-09-04 05:21:42
Excellent
One certainly gets a different perspective of church and religion when they step back and objectively observe how much it controls and enslaves those who fall into its clutches. Great job of writing. I enjoyed it much.

Title article: Those Hills
Date: 2008-09-04 05:12:22
Fantastic!
A wonderful commentary on the timelessness of nature and its beauty. We are very temorary. One reason I loved it was that it was so easy to understand. I got the point.

Title article: The Domesticate
Date: 2008-08-26 13:54:45
Nice
This is very well written with only one thing that bothered me. Too many paragraphs began with the word "Sheen." So many, in fact, that it jumped out at me and became bothersome. Otherwise, very well written.

Title article: Das Babu
Date: 2008-08-26 05:06:44
Wonderful
This is a wonderful story, extremely well written and edited. Sadly, tragic events in people's lives sometimes make them feel they are not worthy of life. What institution nurtures the idea that those suffering deserve their suffering? I can only think of one.

Title article: No Forgiveness
Date: 2008-08-26 04:53:29
Not Fake
So while everyone else was fake he thought he wasn't? Of course, that's very to life. And so are the delusions. Excellent prose that is dark but deserves the very best rating.

Title article: Under my skin, Chapter 1
Date: 2008-08-23 06:22:41
Loved it.
I like this story beginning to end but I was suddenly lost at the very end. Exactly, what was the solution that made him so happy? Very well written story.

Title article: PUT DOWN IN HULL (1965)
Date: 2008-08-23 06:10:06
Clueless
It started out so great. I thought I was in for a wonderful story and then suddenly it ended. I didn't get the punch line either. I did find it to be well written, what there was of it.

Title article: Brown Back River
Date: 2008-08-23 06:06:58
Wonderful
It's a wonderful story. A little far fetched perhaps but very well written. I think it is well worth praising for its ability to hold the reader from beginning to end.

Title article: Southern Hospitality
Date: 2008-08-22 12:38:09
Quite Clever
The plot is quite clever but I still don't know what happened to the missing girl. Perhaps this would be a great opening chapter for a larger piece. I'm hooked and want to know what the guy did with the girl.
