A blog that dares to ask questions, but doesn't bother to answer any! Just some thoughts. If you want to answer a question in a comment, feel free! I might even respond. Sunday, January 26, 2014. Many of us desire to find God, and some spend their whole lives just doing this. But why? Is God so the center of the meaning of our lives that we should be seeking Him? Is God the Source we should be seeking, or is there another Subject that is more true, more to the core of our being? Is it a person, who commu...

Is Life Worth Living? The universe is big. We are not. Does our puny existence really make any difference? Yes, we all have an instinct to survive, to thrive, but rarely do we look at the assumptions of this instinct. Is it better for us to live as individuals? Are we actually improving other's lives? Is mat...

Why Are Addictions Unacceptable? Hi, my name is Steve and I’m an addict. Why don’t the all you can eat pizza bar managers go around telling people, “I think you’ve had enough” like a bartender? Perhaps an unacceptable addiction is due to the harm that it causes others? Then perhaps what society doesn’t acce...

Is love a singular idea, or a complex of ideas that we give one overly-simplistic name? Or is altruism even good for...

The Radical Reformer: July 2015
http://stevesbasics.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Important but challenging meditations, applying Jesus to everyday life. Tuesday, July 28, 2015. Three Meditations on the Death of a Friend. Tim Bass by Tinidril. Each body is a tiny universe. Each soul its own nation. Complexity, contradiction, conflict. Wrapped within a weakened unity. Who dare unravel the depths of a person? What book written completes the hidden? The death of one is a genocide,. A grave tragedy the angels decry. Who dismisses such a loss? Who among the wise dare take it lightly? He ma...
