'Sermon on the Collapse'

Blessed are those who depend least on modern technology, for they have notforgotten how to take care of themselves.

Blessed are those whose culture is communitarian and not individualist, for they will share and prosper.

Blessed are they who have no exploitable natural resources, for no one will bother them.

Blessed are those who know how to grow food, for they will eat and feed others.

Amen



This is from one of those fun, light reading kind of books I wish I had time to read more of. I'm thinking it can replace our tradition of holding hands around the dinner table with our eyes closed when new people come over for dinner.

speaking of prayer, who is addy going to vote for in the MI primary?

oh wait, you guys won't have a complete ballot!

what a farce, huh? hopefully the crazies settle down and everyone starts playing nice again soon so you can have a full ballot, not just Clinton and Dodd.
