Everyone has things they blog about. Everyone has things they don't blog about. Challenge me out of my comfort zone by telling me something I don't blog about, but you'd like to hear about, and I'll write a post or comment about it. Ask for anything: latest movie watched, last book read, religious leanings, thoughts on yaoi, favorite type of underwear, graphic techniques, hairstyles, sports, etc.
:)
p.s. HAPPY FRIDAY!

Date: 2009-05-29 03:13 pm (UTC)Two Parter: How do you think most American's perceive "the rest of the world" and how do you think they perceive you? Why?
Thoughts on religion and do you think it plays any part in the above question?
... hmm those are bit deep and meaningful...
addendum: Do you hope that Fenrir Greyback turns up in the next Twilight movie and rips all the sparkly people to bits?

I mean, I do believe that in general Americans are very self-centered, we focus on America and don't tend to notice what's going outside of our own country. We are a very me-oriented, entitlest society as a whole. I don't think religion has a lot to do with that. I do think that some Americans see the rest of the world as inferior rather than just different. Personally, I know that a lot of people in this area (the valley where I live) don't have much opinion of people or events outside of us. This is our lives; anything that doesn't directly influence us isn't our concern.
I'm quite obviously not good at thinky thoughts, sorry. Apparently there's a reason I don't blog about these things.

Date: 2009-06-01 02:28 am (UTC)One of the things our pastor likes to say is that the Brethren like three things -- to worship, to eat, and to talk. Which is so so true. Within the fellowship of our church family, we get together a lot (weekly dinners at church, breakfast between sunday school and worship, church picnics, special events like Taters and Tunes) and do those three things.
I think that spending time together with food and family (blood or otherwise) and conversation is such an excellent thing, and I love that the kids get to be part of that.
That didn't really answer your question, but whatever. :)
