“Fighting is really, really rewarding. I truly enjoyed it. I got feelings from fighting that were bigger than those I had experienced in almost any other realm of my life. It made me feel awake in a way that I had never been awake. Those kinds of big emotions and big experiences may come with a heavy price tag.” WayFeelsKindMayMadeFeelingsBigsFightingEmotionBiggerHeavyEnjoyedAwakeRealmsTagPrice Tag Author:Jonathan Gottschall
“It was a strange lightness, a drifting feeling. Zero gravity. I understood that everything that once seemed solid and immovable might just float away. And that this was a truth of life, not an illusion in the grieving mind of a child. Everything that is hard and heavy in your world is made up of billions of molecules in constant motion offering the illusion of permanence. But it all tends toward breaking down and falling away. Some things just go more quickly, more surprisingly, than others.” WorldMindChildrenMadeHardFeelingsMightFallStrangeIllusionUnderstoodDown AndConstantHeavyBillionsGrievingZeroGravityOfferingTruth Of LifeBreaking DownFloatsMoleculesDriftingPermanenceLightnessZero Gravity Author:Lisa Unger
“I have never felt comfortable around people who talk about their feelings for Jesus, or any other deity for that matter, because they are usually none too bright... Or maybe "stupid" is a better way of saying it; but I have never seen much point in getting heavy with either stupid people or Jesus freaks, just as long as they don't bother me. In a world as weird and cruel as this one we have made for ourselves, I figure anybody who can find peace and personal happiness without ripping off somebody else deserves to be left alone. They will not inherit the earth, but then neither will I.” PeopleWorldWayLongMadeMatterFeelingsEarthJesusLeftFeltStupidFiguresComfortableDeserveHeavyBotherFreakDeitiesBetter WaysStupid PeopleFinding PeaceLeft AlonePersonal HappinessJesus Freak Book:The Great Shark Hunt: Strange Tales from a Strange Time Source: The Great Shark Hunt: Strange Tales from a Strange Time

“Christianity in our country is a lot like what the Ducksters profess. No longer doctrinaire or demanding, the mishmash of pop-religion practiced in churches across America is an extension of the therapeutic culture: festooned with feelings, mostly misdirected. Untempered by intelligent interpretation of scripture... American pop-theology: light on doctrine, heavy on hellfire and damnation.” CountryFeelingsLightAmericaCultureChurchChristianityIntelligentHeavyPopsScriptureTheologyDoctrineOur CountryInterpretationExtensionsTherapeuticDamnation Author:Ilana Mercer
