I want to find this doll, bring her home and care for her. She deserves more than to be abandoned by TMC.

behold, I’m a bad-ass
Ms. Eddy has an oft-quoted saying about how "trials are proof of God's care." While I've talked about this idea a little in previous posts, it has been a while since I've touched on the topic. As these things often work, the other night this showed up on my facebook feed: It made me very … Continue reading behold, I’m a bad-ass
supernatural & highly abstract hygiene
I follow a number of blogs written by both practicing and former Christian Scientists. I try to find ones that are inspiring, thought provoking, different, well-researched, and relatively new to the scene. There are lots of interesting CS and former-CS bloggers out there. The other day, LebensFreude-Heilung (for the English, visit Vitality and Healing) posted … Continue reading supernatural & highly abstract hygiene
Planning Ahead Can Make a Difference in the End
A friend of mine shared this on my facebook wall recently and I thought it was worth sharing here. I love the reminder that when you pass away your energy is still around, it is not lost, it is just less orderly... some how that seems fitting. Planning Ahead Can Make a Difference in the … Continue reading Planning Ahead Can Make a Difference in the End
Kindism Plus: Why Kindism is, in Fact, a Worldview
An interesting philosophical take on what "Kindism" is for someone else, as opposed to the title of my blog and my rantings about CS and religion.

The Christ as a universal spirit … Continue reading Christ as a “Representative of Humanity”
100s of Paths
I've been busy dealing with another round of snotty children (preschool is a fabulous breeding ground for snot and congestion) so I haven't had as much time to write as I'd hoped. This is something I have been thinking about a lot recently: I was going to write something slightly more philosophical about the proverb, … Continue reading 100s of Paths
O Dreamer
After a few rounds of "Rock-a-bye baby" and "You are My Sunshine" I sang "O Deamer" (or what I could remember of it there was a lot of humming). This is another one of my favorites, although I prefer it sung by a mens choir. Although I've left the religion, I still enjoy the music … Continue reading O Dreamer
reblogged: Raising Children As a Pagan Parent
Raising Children As a Pagan Parent makes some fabulous points about raising children in general. I particularly like the point: Tell them to respect other people. For everyone, no matter his or her age or intelligence or belief system has something to teach you. Everyone has a unique perspective – this is the gift of diversity. … Continue reading reblogged: Raising Children As a Pagan Parent
How Much Christanity?
Although I'm not a "pagan" parent, this post from Witches of the Craft struck home. The credited author, "Josie" makes some valid points that apply to most parents with views outside of "mainstream" Christianity (or one of the other Abrahamic religions). Both my husband and I were raised by devout Christian Scientists and regularly attended … Continue reading How Much Christanity?
