I am back in school as well, and it kicks asteroids!!
I’m in this class called Myth and Modern Literature and we got to read this article from this rabid liberal from the 60s who was coming down on fundamentalist Christians about their denial of evolutionary “facts.” I really enjoy reading things like that. It used to bother me b/c I was like, “Oh no, my faith is being shaken” but it doesn’t really do that anymore, which is good, cause it shouldn’t. It’s funny because the article ended with him giving an example of how scientific “facts” are continually changing. His point, overall, was that science is a better philosophy because it embraces changes in ideas unlike dogmatic fundamentalism. Yet, at the same time, he tried to use scientific “facts” to invalidate the Bible. HAHAHAAHHA!!!! But anyway, it’s a great piece of writing despite how shamefully partial it is.
I’m also having a great time in Music History class. Right now, we’re studying Gregorian Chants and I’m getting to transcribe a Kyrie chant from the original medieval notation to contemporary musical notation. It’s a blast!! Jon, you should take an old Kyrie chant and adapt it for a contemporary band. That would be sweet. Oh, and Jon, you’re sexy. And I mean that in a man-crush sort of way. Harrison Ford is too (man-crush). So is the girl who was just sitting at a computer near to me (not a man crush though). But now she’s gone. I need to work up the guts to talk to her. I’ve seen her around for a while, and I’ve talked to her about twice, but that’s not enough. She used to have blue hair. I’m going to marry her.
By the way, everyone, RYAN GELINAS’S WEDDING IS IN DECEMBER. JAMES P.I.W., YOU ARE THE BEST MAN. Just so everyone will remember (kind of an inside thing between me and Ryan).
I’m on Caramel Macchiato.
THERE’S MY DIARRHIA POST FOR THE YEAR.
