This is a slice of my philosophical, lay scientific, musical, religious skepticism, and poetic musings. (All poems are my own.) The science and philosophy side meet in my study of cognitive philosophy; Dan Dennett was the first serious influence on me, but I've moved beyond him. The poems are somewhat related, as many are on philosophical or psychological themes. That includes existentialism and questions of selfhood, death, and more. Nature and other poems will also show up here on occasion.

Some conservatives really ARE really, really crazy
The latest proof the “secular apocalypse” is here? Parents believing the Fisher-Price Little Mommy Cuddle ‘n Coo doll says “Islam is the light.”
Other people claim it says “Satan is King.”
I think I’ll go to my nearest Target and see if one says: “Sarah Palin is smart.”
Then, I’ll KNOW it’s a plot.
This is just the aural equivalent of pareidolia.
Next: Face of Sarah Palin seen in a tortilla.
