"Supposing truth is a woman—what then? Are there not grounds for the suspicion that all philosophers, insofar as they were dogmatists, have been very inexpert about women? that the gruesome seriousness, the clumsy obtrusiveness with which they have usually approached truth so far have been awkward and very improper methods for winning a woman’s heart? What is certain is that she has not allowed herself to be won:—and today every kind of dogmatism is left standing dispirited and discouraged. If it is left standing at all! "

If you follow me down the rabbit hole You’ll see so many things Dancing rainbows and candy colored trees A thousand silvery moons shining over stormy seas And hearts never break there But only grow lighter They float around carelessly Where souls go to swim While jaded mermaids play and wait for their loves And Unicorn Men sing endless songs with no words If you follow me down the rabbit hole Is it the journey or the destination? The only thing that matters is your lack of hesitation
Figure caption with the NPR political article/source:
"A display of a series of skeletons showing the evolution of humans at the Peabody Museum, New Haven, Conn., circa 1935."
That, and copying Huxley’s famous figure, might be what the museum exhibit creator had in mind, but these 80 or so years later we’re all done recklessly and inaccurately insinuating that we evolved from gorillas, that evolved from chimps, that evolved from orangutans, that evolved from gibbons.
A row of primate skeletons does not depict human evolution any more than a row of dog skeletons depicts the evolution of dogs.
It’s images like this that perpetuate misunderstandings that contribute to the obstacles to evolution acceptance. And of all places to mislead readers about evolution, an article about evolution denial is definitely not one.
I am a creationist and an evolutionist. Evolution is God's, or Nature's method of creation. Creation is not an event that happened in 4004 BC; it is a process that began some 10 billion years ago and is still under way.

She is not “my girl.” She belongs to herself. And I am blessed, for with all her freedom, she still comes back to me, moment-to-moment, day-by-day, and night-by-night. How much more blessed can I be?

To understand meditation in a nutshell, go get a camera and take two pictures of the same thing.
For the first, hold your camera as still as possible, and take a picture.
For the second, shake your camera back and forth as fast as you can while you snap the photo.

Scotch, bourbon and rye are all types of whisky; they are all liquors distilled from fermented grain that are then aged in casks for a given period of time. When you think about scotch, bourbon and rye, imagine them as members of the whisky family.
