MeFi Projects

The first essay starts this way: "I'm crazy." Perfect for the start of this project. I take inspiration from the song "American Pie": "Did you write the book of love?" I want to say yes to that. Raise your hand if you always wanted to say, "Yes, I did write the book of love." No? Just me?

It's some unconventional Christianity that I posit, based on my experiences in the "other side". More will be forthcoming if this is received well.

This is the beginning of a book I’m working on. I’ve linked first to where it starts from the beginning and not the reverse chronological order that the main site shows, the normal link. Right now it’s the roughest possible draft, jumping around to whatever comes into my head, having experienced just recently some intense stuff, the inspiration for this book. I know there is already a book out there with the same title, totally different idea. To comment you must register, wanted to make sure that you couldn’t comment unless you really wanted to. It’s an ongoing affair, hopefully I’ll update it every day with a little tidbit.
