The Elijah/Elisha cycle of stories is one part of Scripture to which I continue to return for inspiration in science, religion and social concerns. I get these interests from both my parents - my mom as housewife, feminist, lay pastor and my dad as engineer turned into pastor. I have lived in both city and country. There are things I love about both. I've been a cook, roofer, manager, pastor, musician, and more. Currently I work at a motel and am trying to become a writer.

Freedom from unreasonable search and seizure
If you want to know one reason for the fourth amendment read Citizen Crain on what happens, sometimes, without it. There are many freedoms we have taken for granted in this country. But letting them go without a fight is the wrong message. Secret courts, untraceable warrents, those are the actions of a police state. When we do them as a part of our war on terror we become the very thing we say we're fighting.
