maybe u need a new thang.... but then again, doing a new thing sometimes makes our readership quit on us. :(

hang in, Meta.
The “One” is the space of the “world” of the tick, but also the “pinch” of the lobster, or that rendezvous in person to confirm online pictures (with a new lover or an old God). This is the machinery operative...as “onto-theology."

I know these things go in cycles. A certain segment is interested in what I'm doing for the moment and I keep doing it and they lose interest for one reason or another and move on. The long term people get tried the same things. Like Mike said "I'm not into God arrangements right now."

There are several frustrations driving this. I wanted to keep my hit rate up until the book comes out so I can use it to advertise the book. The process is so slow it just keeps dragging on I can't keep interested. I can't keep myself stretching all the time to do three four blogs things a day. I have Atheistwatch, not enough shovels (which is all but abandoned), Metacrock's Blog, then I have to treat the Religious a prori like a blog and post several times a week to build traffic because it a blog really.

So with all that I'm just tired. then I'm rusted because I can't find a venue for Doxa, it's essentially been stolen form me. I can't work in it. I can't change it or upgrade it becasue the host put on some stupid editor that I can't work in. He wont teach me how to really do it. They have ruined web hosting so there's no alternative.

then the atheists are so stupid (not offense Fleet, sorry smart atheist) On CARM i mean. that discourages me I keep thinking "who will read it? no one cares." I get stuff from people all the time saying "your stuff is great keep going" but then...atheists send hate comments saying blah blah blah all the stuff they say.

I feel like who cares? The world is full of idiots no one is listening who gives a damn.

I know you guys are great, you are my friends, you are smart, you care. You are also the chorus. You are the not the people I have to convince. Notice the only smart atheist left on here is Fleet. Even Quantum Troll decided to do real life and left us. not that i mean to take you for granted.

Emuse got pissed and jumped ship, but I shouldn't have been at CARM anyway.

Ouch. Doubly damned. Identified neither as "atheist" nor as "smart."

I understand: I don't really post much, so I'm not as easily estimable. Ah, well. I still like you, Meta.
