I spent thirteen years pastoring conservative Christian churches. I have a Bachelor's degree in Youth and Family Ministry from a southern Christian University. I left Christianity because I no longer felt comfortable trying to tell people what they should and should not believe. I have an amazing and beautiful wife, three wonderful children, one super smart dog, and three cats. I am studying physical therapy at a college here in New Mexico now, and trying to figure out creative ways to promote my first book.

I love nature and the outdoors. When I rarely have spare time, you will probably find me and my family doing something in Nature.

A Modest Proposal 2012 (With Apologies to Jonathan Swift for My Thievery)

Author's Note: (If you have not read A Modest Proposal by Jonathan Swift, you might want to before you read this blog.)

After much consideration I have decided that I am wrong and the Right truly is right. My approach toward the Bible has been very wrong-headed. Mea culpa. I foolishly chose to reject much of what the Bible teaches in favor of being kind, loving, and accepting. I stopped viewing the Read more of this blog post »

Oscar Wilde
“Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation.”
Oscar Wilde, De Profundis

Oscar Wilde
“You don't love someone for their looks, or their clothes, or for their fancy car, but because they sing a song only you can hear.”

Alan             Moore
“Sexually progressive cultures gave us literature, philosophy, civilization and the rest, while sexually restrictive cultures gave us the Dark Ages and the Holocaust.”
Alan Moore, 25,000 Years of Erotic Freedom

Neil Gaiman
“I'd love to write some porn, but I don't know if I have the right engines. When I was a young man and I was tempted to write porn, imaginary parents would appear over my shoulder and read what I was writing; just about the point that I managed to banish the imaginary parents, real children would lean over my shoulder and read what I was writing.”
Neil Gaiman

Karl Popper
“Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them. [...] We should therefore claim, in the name of tolerance, the right not to tolerate the intolerant.”
Karl R. Popper, The Open Society and Its Enemies - Volume One: The Spell of Plato
