I awoke this morning with a MISERABLE cold -- the FIRST cold or other "non-mental" illness that I've had since early 2013.
Allie Ryan with Cheese -- where workmen are RE-DOING the fence that Carpenter Ben repaired two months ago.
Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, whom I studied under (a several day workshop in 1988), at the Atlanta Church of Religious Science: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elisabeth_K%C3%BCbler-Ross
Dr. J. Kennedy Schultz (the correct spelling), President of Religious Science, International during the 1980s, is whom I studied under -- he founding the Atlanta Church, now restyled as the Spiritual Living Center of Atlanta.
Last night, I chanced on Rev. Ken Wilcox's church in St. Augustine, Florida, -- Ken was in Ministerial Training while I was in Practitioner Training at the Atlanta church, in the early aughts. And GUESS WHAT!!!
KEN is who started the Writers Group at the Atlanta Church where MY WRITING my book on working for Tennessee Williams was BIRTHED -- and I wrote the first few drafts of eventually 12 drafts there -- and with that group's feedback!!!
And my blog that you are now reading, was born in 2008 -- to PROMOTE my book, but NECESSARILY became Political, soon enough, and after 10.5 years I am just short of 1.5 million hits!!!
http://www.nancybabcockwrites.com/ -- which in late October 2012, became:
In many ways, I modeled mine on my Atlanta Friend Nancy Babcock's blog, her opening screen seen here. Nancy looks like and actually IS -- the ULTIMATE PRESBYTERIAN!!!
Hollis Gillespie, here at the CENTER of the WSB radio/Republican Party Drug Trafficking Crew in Atlanta in the mid-to-late 1990s: Sean Hannity, Neil Boortz, unknown, Hollis Gillespie, Clark Howard, FAKE Democrat James Carville, and another unknown.
Christal Presley (on far right), and I took Hollis's Blogging Class together -- and you can see Grant Henry's/Sister Louisa's paintings on the wall: https://www.shockingreallife.com/
Grant Henry looking up to me, and Christal Presley -- whom I actually met at the Spiritual Living Center of Atlanta -- where she only attended ONCE, with the intention of friending me -- which worked (until it didn't), PARTYING HARDY in late 2009.
I bought many of Grant's paintings, and gave THIS ONE to Rev. Ken Wilcox -- which when I mentioned it last night to him, he nearly FELL ON THE FLOOR LAUGHING!!!
My COLD is sapping me of too much energy today -- and will write more on all of this LATER!!!
>>> OTHER NEWS OF THE DAY:
Helsinki, Finland – The government of this Northern European country recently declared traditional Christianity as harmful. This edict is the result of a five-year study analyzing the effects the Christian faith has on society. Professor Andrew Kannard is the lead researcher in the broad analysis of Christianity’s toxicity on modern society. “From the Catholic pedophile priest scandals to conservative Christians flocking to support the President of the United States Donald Trump, Christianity undermines the foundation of civilization,” he noted.
Progressives have found themselves locked out of the Supreme Court for the foreseeable future. So some are turning to a new strategy to keep the court from damaging their policy priorities: presenting arguments to its conservative justices in a language they understand. For this court, that means making textualist arguments ― grounding a legal case in the original text of the Constitution and any relevant statutes ― to peel at least one vote from its five-vote conservative bloc. One progressive group happens to be uniquely prepared for this moment. The Constitutional Accountability Center, founded in 2008 by litigator Doug Kendall, is the central hub for advancing progressive textualist arguments in the courts and to the public.
