Life's Eye View
The Bumbling Bureacracy, or YOU?
Like many of you, I get up every day and go to work. It is likely that I burn time in traffic, inhaling exhaust, stressing at other drivers, and generally not making the best use of my time. But I have to get to work to provide for the simple life I maintain. I get to [...]Putting Obama’s Money Where His Mouth Is
Obama wants to break the country’s addiction to oil. He has floated a $150 billion proposal to curb our petrol appetites. Yet is he willing to put his money where his mouth is? Here are some proposals for Obama to consider, and they may be extreme, but he and his environmental friends are willing to ask [...]Delusions of Grandeur
Let me start by saying I do not consider myself a Republican, or a McCain supporter for that matter. I think there is a lesser of two evils, but that is not the point here. Rather, I with to express just how offended I am by Obama and his recent “politics of meaning” tour in [...]I Care More About the Kingdom of Heaven
The left and the right both believe the government has a role in bettering society and that, somehow, it is the catalyst for human progress. And we have politicians running around spouting off that they somehow will be the agents of change in our country. What change? Economic prosperity? Equality? Universal health care? Which were the [...]Government: On the Road to Regress
There is an idea floating around out there about the role of government. To paraphrase, it holds that civilization and human progress can only happen through government. Somehow, our society, culture and mankind will grow better through progressive government. This is a fallacy. I won’t go waxing scholarly here, nor will I quote [...]Our Next President Won’t Change a Thing
They are all spouting off, liberals and conservatives alike. They want to bring change to our country. They may be well-intentioned, but they are delusional. The idea of change from the top down is questionable at best. At worst, historically, it has strayed into utopian ideas that ended up being destructive. [...]Preach the Gospel…
I have been aloof from the whole church thing lately. I find myself sitting in Sunday services, wondering just what the point is. We spend much time, energy and money on getting people in the door on Sundays. And I wonder for what. In this time of hyper-change, the institutional church seems [...]Tending the Garden
I was at a church service tonight. It was packed. Nary a seat to be found. In Seattle. On a cold rainy night. At 6:45 pm. What brings the crowd here, in this godlessly, post-modern city? Maybe the message. Maybe the pastor. Maybe the warm, candlelit [...]Revelry
I was standing in Chop Suey, with a great friend, anticipating a New Years Eve party. This Seattle club has an ersatz Chinese vibe, complete with a ceremonial parade dragon hanging on the ceiling and kitshy artifacts spread artfully about. And of course it pays a loose homage to Bruce Lee, a Seattle [...]Christmas is…
the 94-year-old lady, alone in a care facility, her family dead and gone, and no one to visit her. She’s sitting in her wheel chair, waiting for dinner outside the dining room. It’s still two hours ’til dinner. caring for parents unable to care for themselves, cleaning up after them in not the most [...]Alexander G. Seidel's Discussions
