An in-depth, and let's face it scary, look at how I think and observe the world. I've often been called weird. But what is normal, really? Maybe I'm normal, and all of you are weird.

Adrift on the Snow
Here's to you, Mr. Asinine Snow-Plower-Man, who thought it would be funny to plow the snow into a 3 ft high snowdrift in front of my driveway! And here's to you, Mr. Jackass Neighbor, who saw me digging my car out of aformentioned snowdrift, after I lost control on the ice and careened into it, and quickly ran into the house to avoid helping me!
Nothing is Impossible…
B.D. says that he doesn’t like Easter. He said he can’t accept a holiday that celebrates a man coming back from the dead…a feat which he claims could never happen. It’s an impossibility in B.D.’s mind. Nobody could come back from the dead. Dead is dead.
So, I asked him if it’s impossible for a man or for a God? He said for a man. Then, he amended with, “What’s impossible for a god?”
That’s my point exactly. Nothing is impossible for a God. You can’t judge God or His Son by what a man can do. If you do that, then I agree 100% that it’s impossible.
To this, B.D. said that “when you put a god in a man with even the slightest doubt that he will be seen as a man, and [knowing that] a man can do what a man can do,” it’s impossible that Jesus could come back from the dead.
But that thing we know as Jesus was just a vessel. A body. Clothes. Dressing Him up in that body could no more diminish who He was underneath than dressing me up in women’s clothes would diminish that I’m still a man underneath. God was still underneath the “clothes” of Jesus, therefore so was His ability and power.
