    I had promised in an earlier post to write a bit about the Catholic Church & Native people, so here goes... Earlier this month, I met an amazing man. He's native, from New Mexico, raised Catholic, but with a strong adversion to the Catholic church- not Christianity mind you, just Catholicism.  Read more >

    As some of you might know, I was scheduled to get married on July 4th, 2006 to an aethist. Perhaps it was because God intervened. Some might say that it was because there is no God. Whatever the case, the wedding is off. The guests have been informed. & he and I are trying to figure out if there is a future for us.  Read more >

    We were told to go to dinner together as a group. The vision- that we would get a chance to talk amongst ourselves, as secularists and people of faith. Being the good retreat participants that we are *smile* we did & during dinner we went around the dinner table- 3 women of faith & 2 secular men- telling stories about our life, our faith/lack thereof, growing up in the U.S. and our commitment to our values.

    When you hear the word secularist, what thoughts come to mind? How about when you hear the term people of faith? A few days ago I engaged in the most interesting of excercises. As a part of broader visioning excercise, I was asked to list on a flip chart all of the stereotypes about secularists that exist and in turn also list all of the stereotypes that I think that secularists might have of me, as a person of faith. There were about half a dozen of us doing this excercise. You can probably guess most of the list.  Read more >

    Isn't it funny how reality can shift in a matter of seconds? In my experience, all it takes is a single word, pose or look to completely shift someone's perception of reality. & it all flows, seemlessly weaving itself into life & how life goes. <1--break-->  Read more >
