Sorry for the delay today but you are getting the first newly scanned napkin in months! I just
got a new computer and scanner. I have been waiting for quite a while so I have a backlog of
napkins and drawings to do now.
This quote is particularly important for me. I have a long history within the christian church
and I had to part ways intellectually with it in many ways due to the truth behind this quote.
The traditional christian church isn’t really interested in its congregants thinking freely. They
want to give the illusion of thinking through ideas. But in the end they fully expect that the
answer they supply will be accepted and further questions will be not be forthcoming.
I was not comfortable being a youth leader when I was basically not allowed to encourage the
students to really think for themselves especially considering I had daughters in the youth
group. Luckily my daughters have all become thinkers in their own right, often leading the way
for my progress in the world of ideas.
