Shrug. I would — and have — had dinner with all kinds of people whose beliefs and behavior diverge sharply from what I think is advisable or ethical. Having dinner with someone is not an endorsement of their worldview, full stop. Maybe this

You probably don't mean it to, but this reinforces my point. You trust the government? I sure don't.

Myself, I tend toward flowery prose with copious clauses and parentheticals. But listing — or building out a list into an essay — is an incredibly effective communication tactic. I would rather have people write lists than write nothing, an

Massive PDF of A Pattern Language: https://arl.human.cornell.edu/linked%20docs/Alexander_A_Patt... But I recommend owning and reading it in print. Great book to dip in and out of at whim.

In a religious value system, to die for one's faith is the utmost privilege, a combined ordeal and honor to which most of us are not equal. Martyrs demonstrate absolute devotion and dedication — and they demonstrate the true cost of pr
