My ability to blog is pretty akin to that of the woman in the commercial who blogs about someone's oatmeal.

It is indeed very tricky as to how to present our material on a blog...You've sent us in the right direction, I feel.

I don't know, Naut - if you DID get too technical, I'd probably be lost , but for sure one must pay more attention when reading these posts than if reading one about...say...a doggie being chased by a table. It's all good! We log off giggling about one post, praying about another, swooning, remembering, agreeing or disagreeing with others...and then there are those that give us information and food for thought. Damn - I've even had a couple of weird dreams after reading your posts on 'Time'! I think the charm of Blogit is that there are many versatile writers, and unlimited subject matter - we glean some knowledge from each one, which is never a bad thing. So no, by all means, don't stop now!!

Laying this movement off to cultural circumstances and/or pre-conditioning is far too passive for me. I was a psychology major with a great interest in sociology and a true faith in God and creation I found much to be desired in the greatness of bravado and intellectual brass of many of the fathers of???? Freud was so full of it. He may more than likely may have fathered the NAMBA horror and Darwin is the father of a creative joke which he did recount before his death, but none of his followers are listening. He is a joke to believe that all of this was not pre-ordained, pre-written and understood by any who are willing to research, study and listen, actually the listening comes first and the acceptance of the highest level of research offered man. I graduated with honors, have a high IQ so I am not measureable by world standars; to them I am  an idiot for believing the Truth of God and creation. Whatever!

I love your writing and your dialogue with some of your comm-enters, but do not get so stilted you will determine what all your comm-enters know. I know you are intelligent and you elude to your background but do not expose it. I am not complaining about your not believing. Nor would I want anyone to attempt to evaluate my lack of understanding because of my faith. Islam and Christianity are the two forces of religion known in this world, created by God directly and indirectly.
