Reply to Brett Keane's question, "Are Agnostics Honest?"

I got booted from YouTube, for material which was not commercially available. Yet, half of YouTube's content IS commercially available copywritten material. Time to move on

Bonus questions included!

Nurture your mind with great thoughts; to believe in the heroic makes heroes.
- Benjamin Disraeli (1804 - 1881)

Without heroes, we are all more... plain people, and don't know how far we can go.
- Bernard   more...Malamud

We all live in suspense, from day to day, from hour to hour; in other words, we are the hero of our own story.
- Mary McCarthy

We don't have to turn to our history books for heroes. They're all around us. Don't let anyone tell that America's best days are behind her that the American spirit has been vanquished. We've seen it triumph too often in our lives to stop believing in it now.
- Ronald Reagan

You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, "I lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along." . . . You must do the thing you think you cannot do.
- Eleanor Roosevelt, You Learn by Living

Hero-worship is strongest where there is least regard for human freedom.
- Herbert Spencer

The hero is not fed on sweets, Daily his own heart he eats; Chambers of the great are jails, And head-winds right for royal sails.
- Ralph Waldo Emerson

Old myths, old gods, old heroes have never died. They are only sleeping at the bottom of our mind, waiting for our call. We have need for them. They represent the wisdom of our race.
Stanley Kunitz

Myths and legends die hard in America. We love them for the extra dimension they provide, the illusion of near-infinite possibility to erase the narrow confines of most men's reality. Weird heroes and mould-breaking champions exist as living proof to those who need it that the tyranny of ''the rat race'' is not yet final.
Hunter S. Thompson quotes (American Journalist and Author, 1937-2005)



For I say unto you in all sadness of conviction that to think great thoughts you must be heroes as well as idealists. Only when you have worked alone / when you have felt around you are a black gulf of solitude more isolating than that which surrounds the dying man, and in hope and despair have trusted to your own unshaken will / then only can you gain the secret isolated joy of the thinker, who knows that a hundred years after he is dead and forgotten men who have never heard of him will be moving to the measure of his thought / the subtle rapture of postponed power, which the world knows not because it has no external trappings, but which to his prophetic vision is more real than that which commands an army. And if this joy should not be yours, still it is only thus you can know that you have done what lay in you to do / can say that you have lived, and be ready for the end.
Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. quotes (American Judge and Jurist, He was called The Great Dissenter; He often disagreed with the conservative majority. 1841-1935)  less

My idea to settle the immigration debate

I answered the video "Ten Random Things About Yourself", giving a list of Ten Random Things About Mike Nobody.

Judy Burnette´s Poem "Dad" published in 1999:

http://www.netpoets.com/poems/death/0319006.htm

Dad...so many images come to mind
whenever I speak your name;
It seems without you in my life
things have never been the same.
What happened to those lazy days
when I was just a child;
When my life was consumed in you
in your love, and in your smile.
What happened to all those times
when I always looked to you;
No matter what happened in my life
you could make my gray skies blue.
Dad, some days I hear your voice
and turn to see your face;
Yet in my turning...it seems
the sound has been erased.
Dad, who will I turn to for answers
when life does not make sense;
Who will be there to hold me close
when the pieces just don't fit.
Oh, Dad, if I could turn back time
and once more hear your voice;
I'd tell you that out of all the dads
you would still be my choice.
Please always know I love you
and no one can take your place;
Years may come and go
but your memory will never be erased.
(Today, Jesus, as You are listening
in your home above;
Would you go and find my dad
and give him all my love.)

Brett Keane´s "Poem" - "Erase My Innocence":

So many images race through my mind
Whenever I speak your name
It seems without you in my life
Things will never be the same
What happened to those days
When I was just a child
The Innocence
When my life was consumed in you
In your love and in your smile
What happened to all those times
When I always looked to you
No matter what happened in my life
You always got me through
I turn to see your face
Yet in my turning it seems
The sound has been erased
When life does not make sense
Who will be there to hold me close
When the pieces just don´t fit
If I could turn back time
and once more hear your voice
I would tell you always know
I love you and no one can take your place
Years may come and go
But your memory will never be erased

TogetherForPeace asks two question for atheists:
1. What defines your moral code?
2. How are your beliefs less prone to creating misery and conflict than Christian beliefs?

This is my response, with Penn   more...Jillette being remixed to help me out!  less

Originally a response to "Brett Keane VS Serpent Slacker", however this holds up on its own. Brett knows his stuff on the bible.
