"The certainty of a God..."

turned on the television to c-span this morning and listened to a fellow who was describing how many people were being removed from those government jobs which serve to help those who "served"...cuts in the veterans administration...now i am watching p. hegseth talk about putting the defense department back in the hands of the "war fighters"...a new term to me...i wonder if the "war fighters" ever take into consideration how many military vetrans commit suicide or end up washed up in the dregs of addiction or how their suicide is related to what they experienced while they "served"...also was surprised to learn of pope francis death today...obviously he was killed by v.p. vance...had an uncomfortable night after an encounter with a person who sought to harasse me...i mulled over the encounter and determined that i handled it poorly...i went into scream mode...i eventualy concluded that religion is not what a person believes but what they do...buddist think that the only thing a person owns is their actions... watched some interesting DVDs...i was amused to note that 'criminal minds" broached two subjects which are seldom discribed...necrophilia and canibalism...both probably against the law in most societies...but what about necrophilia by prior agreement or canibalism by prior agreement...can a person engage in these acts with legal impunity...just a thought. i saw an excellent interview called "Branford Marsailis on Jerry Garcia and the grateful dead" very well articulated...Branford was described as the "true musician" in the family "The certainty of a God giving meaning to life far surpases in attractiveness the ability to behave badly with impunity." albert camus (1942)
