Got married.

Completed a philosophy course (OU – A211: Philosophy and the Human Situation).

Trained for and completed the Wessex 100 mile cycle event for charity.

And a few weeks ago became a father!

So, I’ve had good reason not to update my site. :-)

I recently started (and currently behind on!) another philosphy course – OU AA311 – Reading political philosophy: Machiavelli to Mill.

Life for me is busy!

So, rather than make the same mistakes as before, I’ve bought a copy of Clear Blogging by Bob Walsh (thanks to Nigel Warburton’s advice) to get some pointers.
 
Also, I’ve decided that focusing on Philosophy of Religion is becoming a bit tedious.  I’m going to branch out into other matters that keep me awake at night, such as:

- Virtual Reality and Life 2.0
- Philosophy of Mind
- Economics, capitalism and current affairs
- Privacy, Data Protection and life in the Digital Age (by profession I’m a technical consultant)
- And other ramblings that take my fancy

So, a new year (though a bit late with it) and a new start, with more frequent updates, shorter posts and a lighter tone.  I hope…

…here goes!

The journey for the development of a web-site dedicated to the philosophy of disbelief starts here. In the meantime, think about this:

The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want. He makes me down to lie.
Through pastures green He leadeth me the silent waters by.
With bright knives He releaseth my soul.
He maketh me to hang on hooks in high places.
He converteth me to lamb cutlets.
For lo, He hath great power, and great hunger.
When cometh the day we lowly ones,
through quiet reflection and great dedication,
master the art of karate,
lo, we shall rise up,
and then we’ll make the buggers eyes water.
