Tonight J. and I went to see Dr. Lennox at Eckerd College, where he was presenting a lecture on his unique experiences as a debater, professor, and, most importantly (eternally, anyways) a Christian at Oxford University.
Most of his quantum physics points were somewhat over my head, but the question and answer session at the end was very engaging. We went for coffee before our trip over to St. Pete, so that helped... I did not order my latte's espresso shots in decaf, and J. didn't stop me. (Thanks- I needed it!)
Of course we had our own debate, held later at Starbucks, but as long as friends are respectful of each other, I see no harm in bantering about some of these current issues. :)

So I have a few things turning over in my mind from events as of late, and two events in particular that happened over this weekend that are troubling. I won't elaborate further, but I am thinking that perhaps readers should not expect things from me for awhile.
I cannot, I confess, continue writing with the conviction that I held before, because I just cannot seem to find it as easily as I used to. I want to make sure that I am convinced of things I am passionate about, believe in, write about, and champion for. I am frankly so full of questions that cannot be answered that I am afraid that I would not be an encouragement, nor could I in good conscience portray something that doesn't align with my heart right now.
And with that, as Jim Carrey says: "Good morning, good afternoon, good evening, and good night, and go vote on Tuesday." (I added the last part.)
Oh, and take the "I voted" sticker off your shirt before you toss it into the washer...
