CRUEL APRIL

T.S. Eliot wrote "April the the cruelest month."

Is it?

The U.S. Civil War began AND ended during the month of April (1861 and 1865 to be exact.)

The U.S. entered World War I on April 6, 1917; Berlin fell in April 1945 with Hitler committing suicide on April 30.

When I was younger and more ignorant I wished this were my birth month.

Spring?

Has it sprung yet?

I'm reading a book called "Sapiens." It pretty much states that our cultures are the result of large groups of people believing in an "imagined reality." Not only are all gods fictional but so are the "Rights of Man;" this concept is as much an invented fiction as the old Codes of Hammarabi. And people from the U.S. shouldn't consider their culture superior to the old Hindi caste system, re those old ideas about the "purity of the white race."

I am very "striaight" I do not find black men attractive. I also don't find them repulsive but black men just don't "do it" for me. Is that due to my own biology (which I believe is the course of my heterosexuality) or the result of culture?

CRAZY LIFE....

Mother tried to engage me in conversation about reason vs. faith.

OMG! I don't want to open that can of worms!

Today is Holy Saturday. Not a big deal to me anymore.

Objectivism states that people should enjoy being alive on this earth. I enjoy it more and more every day!
