About Me

My photo
Hearing impaired (tendency to appear dumb, dense, and/or aloof), orthodox atheist (believe faith more harmful than doubt), self depreciating sense of humor (confident/not to be confused with low self esteem), ribald sense of humor (satorical/mocking when sensing Condescension), confirmed bachelor (my fate if not my choosing), freakish inclination (unpredictable non-traditionalist opinions), free spirit (nor conformist bohemian) Believe others have said it better...... "Jim! You can be SO SMART, but you can be SO DUMB!" "Jim! You make such a MARTYR of yourself." "He's a nice guy, but...." "You must be from up NORTH!" "You're such a DICK!" "You CRAZY!" "Where the HELL you from?" "Don't QUITE know how to take your personality." My favorite, "You have this... NEED... to be....HONEST!"

LAICISM - Wednesday, November 30, 2016










***

***

Citations for laicism
Dante has embodied it in a certain outlook on life, or, more precisely, an outlook on the way in which men's affairs, and particularly political affairs, should be arranged…. it could, perhaps, be described as internationalism rather than nationalism, laicism rather than theocracy, in the arrangement of human affairs …U. Limentani, "Dante's Political Thought," The Mind of Dante, 1965
Ask anyone here what distinguishes their country from the rest of South America, and their answer is almost invariably “our laicism.”Uki Goñi, "Uruguay's Quiet Democratic Miracle," New York Times, February 9, 2016

Today turned out to be an interesting day.

As I was doing my usual routine for the late afternoon rush hour traffic leaving nearby Emory University,  I found myself at one point looking right down the barrel of a gun as the lone occupant of this vehicle slowly but calmly passes by in front of me.

And I started laughing.

At the same time shouting,
"HEY!  HEY!
HE'S GOT A GUN!  HE'S GOT A GUN!"

But I couldn't stop laughing.
