Just sharing some Google search statistics.
• “Militant Muslim” — 301,000 results.
• “Militant Atheist” — 174,000 results.
• “Militant Christian” — 96,500 results.
• “Militant Israeli” — 28,600 results.
• “Militant Catholic” — 26,400 results.
• “Militant Protestant” — 24,400 results.
• “Militant Buddhist” — 14,300 results.
• “Militant Jew” — 4,630 results.
I see this list as a fear gauge. I’m surprised that atheists were only in second place.

I have something like seventeen blog posts in the works: skeletons of themes awaiting the flesh of words. The topics include free will, taxes, originality, my mom, my best friend, business and politics. Saying what I would like to say about these subjects calls for more than a Facebook-like attention span — therefore I ask friends of this blog to bear with me between posts. I cannot possibly produce enough output to sate the maw of the internet, and so I will not try.

I just reread with greater care the comments to my post “The Wonder Years” and was moved by the emotion and humanity my friends expressed. I am grateful for what you so candidly shared, as it made me feel part of a greater whole, different as our stories are.
