parallelostory – impacist

Why I like this video: Parallelostory feels like an introspective piece to me. I like the subtle and simple soundtrack and the fact that it lets you think.

two cars, one night
Posted by Peter Owen | Filed under video
Why I like this video: Two cars, one night peers into the lives of a few kids in New Zealand that are waiting on their parents to come out of a rural pub. This short shows that friendship and connections can be made in any situation and especially by children.

trip to washington d.c.
Posted by Peter Owen | Filed under friends, photo, Picture
Allow me to give you interesting tidbits about our exploration of DC. First of all, Mike and I happened upon a concert so we’d thought we’d go check it out. Turns out it’s a Gay Pride concert. Not only that but when we got there, immediately this guy came up and took our picture. We fully expect to have our picture in the publication Metro Weekly in DC. Wow, ok… did not expect that. We rode all over DC in bikes (I highly recommend this approach). Last time we walked everywhere and my feet were killing me, not to mention that severely limits how far you can go.

rick warren and sam harris debate about god
Posted by Peter Owen | Filed under religion, science
I’ve been trying to read A Purpose Given Life by Rick Warren (to see what all the talk is about) recently. I managed to get about one third of the way through it.. maybe even almost a half and I lost complete and total motivation to finish it. That being said, I ran across this interesting debate between Rick Warren and Sam Harris. Sam’s latest book God is Not Great looks like an interesting read. I’d like to finish Rick Warren’s then read Sam Harris’ in order to compare their contrasting viewpoints. Check out the following article and let me know what you think.
The God Debate | Newsweek.com.
PS – One of the things I’m struggling with is.. what’s the difference between not believing in God versus believing that there exist something that people label as God that is everything. Kind of like naturalisticPantheism. The difference to me seems to be in the details of the label. What are your thoughts?
