This may be the best thing I have come across in a long time -- or it may be more bullshit. Read it carefully and think about it.

The question is not to ask whether something is true or false, right or wrong, good or bad. The question to ask is: Does this work for me better for my life than what I am presently using?

We think that we are given a set of things that is our reality, but that is not really the case. We construct it with our mental chatter. Much of the time, we are building it without knowing that this is what we are doing.

Walter Truett Anderson identifies postmodernism as one of four world views. These four worldviews are the postmodern-ironist, which sees truth as socially constructed, the scientific-rational in which truth is found through methodical, disciplined inquiry, the social-traditional in which truth is found in the heritage of American and Western civilisation and the neo-romantic in which truth is found either through attaining harmony with nature and/or spiritual exploration of the inner self.[12]

- Dawkins.Net and Ricard Dawkins Foundation (RDF) branch off from this page.This may be the leading edge of the non beliver movement. There are more and more articles and publications coming out that reveal and support atheism (see current Wired and my own Emory Magazine for example). Is the time coming when many will come out of the closets and show that the usual nonsense about religious belief in the US be refuted. And who do we deal with the true believers - the conservative and those in massive profound denial about reality. I think that we need to go on the attack. Especially let their children know that their parents are coo coo. Make sure that fundementalists shall not be allowed into major universites desirable employment. Dawkins encourages me, and I hope others, to be courageous. I am going to make this the emphsis of my blog. - M. C Mykel on 2006-10-28

This is something I really need to read carefully. Powelson was at Atlanta for awhile but I never got to know him. Somehow he was a reluctant quaker and had his doubts about some of the Quaker ethos and mythology.

There is a lot of social theory and history that I should have paid attention to years ago. Well, it may be too late in some sense but I want to reread this and give it some more thought.

This is a set of books etc. that claims that they can be used to build a power system for 2 or 3 hundred dollars and save lots of money.
The books cost 50 bucks. It is a long web site and I need to read it carefully and check out some of the other resourses
