Michel Foucault & Truth

nobody@vox.com(Koios) — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 20:15:20 -0700

I found this today. Pretty interesting quote, imo. Looks like I've found another book to read. :) "My intention was not to deal with the problem of truth, but with the problem of truth-teller or truth-telling as an activity … Who is able to te...

QOTD

nobody@vox.com(Koios) — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 07:40:01 -0700

Bored at work, I'm doing some reading on my buddy, Nietzsche. It's been a while since I've actually been able to read something thought provoking. Today I actually found something interesting. First, I found this great quote: There is in general...

Does truth define us?

nobody@vox.com(Koios) — Tue, 29 Sep 2009 15:53:27 -0700

So, I've been thinking about truth a lot lately. Namely, I've been wondering how important truth really is in our lives. Does truth really matter that much? Most of us make a big deal out of it, but is it really that big of a deal? Does it define ...

God Is Not Love

nobody@vox.com(Koios) — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 20:48:48 -0700

The phrase "God is love" is quite a popular phrase among Christians. It's an interesting phrase that doesn't make too much sense at first. But after thinking about it for a bit, one simply understands that God is considered to be the ultimate exam...

Interesting Quote

nobody@vox.com(Koios) — Mon, 21 Sep 2009 10:59:13 -0700

I normally give C.S. Lewis a hard time. But, surprisingly, I found this interesting quote: Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art, like the universe itself (for God did not need to create it). It has no survival value; rather it is...

We live in an age when unnecessary things things are our only necessities. -Oscar Wilde Hello everyone! It's been a while since my last blog. School, studying, life, socializing - all of these things have kept me busy. I've missed my solitude...

Woot!

nobody@vox.com(Koios) — Mon, 17 Aug 2009 12:05:15 -0700

It's really refreshing to be ecstatic about something. I interviewed for a part-time job last week and I found out today that I got it! With bills to pay, and full-time grad school coming up, I was a little worried about having enough time to work...

Love

nobody@vox.com(Koios) — Sat, 01 Aug 2009 12:26:41 -0700

There are numerous types of love: platonic love, romantic love, humanistic love. It's been quite a while since I've experienced romantic love. And, to be honest, I'm not sure I will any time soon. As one of my females friends recently told me, I s...

Life is good

nobody@vox.com(Koios) — Tue, 28 Jul 2009 08:35:48 -0700

Don't ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive. -Howard Thurman For the longest time I really felt like I was in a state of constant allay; I didn't feel ...

Brad Pitt is A Nonbeliever

nobody@vox.com(Koios) — Fri, 24 Jul 2009 06:44:14 -0700

I'm probably 20 per cent atheist and 80 per cent agnostic. I don't think anyone really knows. You'll either find out or not when you get there, and then there's no point thinking about it. -Brad Pitt It turns out that Brad Pitt is a nonbelieve...
