Benefit Of The Doubter

There is a saying in Zen Buddhism: Little doubt, little enlightenment... Great doubt, great enlightenment. I believe that doubt is as important to a person's faith as belief...or do I? Socrates had a saying too, "The unexamined life is not one worth living". In this blog, I will presume to pick at the things that I (or other people) believe in. It will be my digital Walden. As you work towards enlightenment, it is to your benefit to be a doubter.

the kids of today should still defend themselves against the seventies

My simple pleasure for today was driving around town and I tuned in to the public radio station that, instead of depressing you with the antics of international control freaks, plays good music. They were playing "Against the 70's", by Mike Watt and sung by Eddie Vedder. I haven't heard that song in forever...good stuff!

(click on the title, and magically it will make sense, barring any technical error or mental deficiency)
