On New Years Day
It seems we don't get snow like we used to in Minnesota these days. It was a joy to experience a bit of it on New Years Day.

It seems we don't get snow like we used to in Minnesota these days. It was a joy to experience a bit of it on New Years Day.
This blog was created in December of 06 by Alex as a way for him to explore the big questions in life. Matt was invited on as a guest contributor since he has been offering up thoughtful questions from the very start. The conversations generally take the form of an ongoing dialogue exploring the potentially loaded topic of Christianity and Atheism. We pride ourselves on our respectful, honest, yet sometimes pointed exchanges. If there's anything we have been able to agree on thus far, it is that no matter what we may come to during the course of our discussions, nothing is worth resorting to insults and temper tantrums. We both find these topics fascinating and we encourage open and honest participation.
About Me
- Name: Alex
- Location: Minnesota, United States
For as long as I've thought seriously about God I've been engaging those who see the world differently than I do. Usually, but not always, these folks are atheists. Through the course of my discussions I have perhaps learned (and been spurred on to learn) more than any other educational endeavor I've engaged in. About 6 months after starting this blog I quit my day job as a graphic designer to pursue a Masters Degree in Christian Thought. I should be finishing that up in 2010. I welcome all view points and encourage honest disagreement with me. Who knows, I just might learn something. (again)

It looks amazing - all we got was some drizzle and cold wind.

It seem like more and more that's all we get as well.

I'm just mulling over your previous post at the moment- you've covered quite a lot of ground, so it might be a little while before I respond to it.
[Plus, it's my little brother's birthday today, so I'm going to be a bit busy with that. No matter how fascinating a blog post is, it just can't compete with the allure of a nice Chinese meal]

Take your time. I need to catch my breath a little from time to time as well.

And wish your bro a happy birthday from me! How old is he?

He's... [desperately tries to remember what his own age is, then deduct the right number of years] 23.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one who does that. I usually have to ask Megan how old I am!

I had to quickly check my blogger profile, just to be sure. I think it's an attempt to deny getting older.

Your situation there is like ours here in the fSU. It's appalling. January 3rd and slushy rain washing ALL the snow away. Almost in tears.

Winter has just become the death of summer. In the old days we were transported to a wonderful new world of pure white wonder. Now days we are left with with nothing but the pain of living through the funeral until spring. My boy will probably never know the winters I had growing up. Very sad indeed.
