Blogachute #3!!!

It’s Friday lunchtime! – which means blogachute! Time to jump off the blogplane and freefall into cyberspace until I land on the ground.

Today’s freefall takes us into the world of atheism, spiritualism and a lot of New Age stuff. I guess if we want to be relevant in today’s world, we need to know what we’re up against. After all, Paul preached on Mars Hill using the statue of an unknown god.

8000 feet - http://atheist1.com/blog/

A resourceful website for people who want to get rid of their religious burdens by turning away from God. I didn’t realize there were so many books! Maybe I should stock up on a few and review my systematic theology. Argumentative site, but applies comment moderation. I’ve asked a couple of questions here, but they never show up.

7000 feet - http://churchofintegrity.blogspot.com/

Lots of huggy, touchy, feely stuff going on here. Respect and tolerance for one another, although the blogger questions existence of God and the purpose of religion more than a few times. I guess this is how the other side think.


6000 feet - http://www.non-violent.com/

Otherwise known as Maryilyn’s Non-Violent Planet. Lots of great Peace Movement links and resources here. Nice philosophy going on, too. I like the layout and graphics. A cyber-encyclopedia of pacifism.



5000 feet - http://members.aol.com/AngriesOut/index.htm

Sounds a bit corny and looks a bit dated, but website is a great resource for family life and strengthening relationships. Lots of counseling tools and perhaps small group study stuff here. Definitely a bookmarker for Family ministries.

4000 feet - http://www.coloringtherapy.com/

An interesting site about the therapeutic use of coloring. You have to purchase the designs, though. Some ideas about transcendental meditation – I thought that went out of style when the Beatles broke up. I guess not.


3000 feet - http://www.expressyoursoul.com/

Website of Dr. Joy Lynn Freeman – a healing arts coach/consultant whose into yoga, dance, and creativity. Very pleasing and aesthetic site to view. Some of the links are painfully slow to view – or maybe it was just my computer. New Age stuff doesn’t go down well with my e-machine.


2000 feet - http://www.john-paolucci.com/

This blogachute jump is getting weird and wacky, almost like Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland or Milo’s journey in the Phantom Tolbooth. This website is about controlling the universe through your own thoughts. Sounds a bit like that new book “The Secret.”

The human imagination is a wonderful vehicle for endless creation.


1000 feet – back on course - http://www.labyrinthonline.com/

The definitive website about labyrinths. I walked one about three weeks ago and fell in love with the spiritual journey. Great site for history, meaning, and resources on labyrinths. One day, all our churches will have one – although some folks think that Presbytery is a bureaucratic labyrinth…but that’s me getting polity political…heheheheheh..

Zero feet – back to terra firma, as well as opus major
