    I'm still not dead. I'm just in the midst of trying to figure things out before I write them down in any kind of permanent fashion. If you'd like to know something, email me and maybe I'll write about it.

    Tsunami.No.Kami

    The Abolition of Man

    By Tsunami.No.Ai

    There are very few things in life that are quite as satisfying as a good answer to a very tough question. Last night I had an opportunity to find one of these answers that had been bothering my thoughts for probably over a year. So for this article I decided to regale you all with the question and the answer I found.

    Depression, Suicide, and the Self-righteous

    People are continuously confusing “the blues” and depression. They seem to think that true depression and real suicidal thoughts can be cured by simply showing a little attention at a few times to numerous people. I personally find this ludicrous and here I will state what should be the correct way to deal with someone truly suicidal.

    Where Does This Ocean Go?

    I would like to think I began a small excursion towards “enlightenment” (or really it was more me deciding to stop acting like a jackass and find something more meaningful in my life). Part of this excursion was what has turned out to be a possible end to the logical progression that started several years ago.

    Something to Think About

    Lately, I’ve been studying some Eastern philosophy; specifically the codes of honor from Japan. Here is something that everyone, regardless of creed, should probably read and take to heart.

    Weird Science

    This is something I have been meaning to say for a long time. I have been asked on numerous occasions “Why does science and how the world was formed matter to Christians?” Here I try to explain why it matters and why we should all be concerned that we are dividing ourselves from the rest of the world. Even if you think you have your mind made up about this issue, please consider this article carefully.
