The crux of the origin arguments is a basic issue. Those who believe in the myth of abiogenesis and evolution use a common practice. They sneak in the conclusion before discussing the proof (evidence). Instead of being viewed as a proposition requiring verification, universal common descent is often regarded as the jumping-off point in modern biology. After that, that perspective becomes the default for practically all subsequent analysis.

I felt like everybody else had their voices heard but mine. Being a young person in love will do that to you.

There was a time when joy came in the form of crayons, paint, and a plastic yellow caddy I wanted more than anything in the world. As a child, art wasn’t just something I enjoyed—it was my escape. In a life that often felt chaotic, creating something beautiful gave me peace. But somewhere between growing up, becoming a mother, surviving hardship, and carrying the weight of “real life,” I quietly let that part of myself slip away. Years turned into decades without me even realizing I had abandoned the one thing that once made me feel whole. Until one day, I found my way back. Reclaiming a childhood passion isn’t just about picking up a hobby again—it’s about rediscovering a piece of yourself you didn’t realize you lost. And sometimes, that return can bring more healing, joy, and peace than you ever expected.

Most fans of the horror genre have seen American Psycho. For me, when it was released for home viewing I raced to Blockbuster with a note from my parents conceding to let me rent the VHS. I brought it home and probably watched it ten times over the weekend before I needed to return it. I got to school Monday morning with the skinny for everyone else on a movie that nobody else's parents would let them see. For once, I was the cool kid.
