I think he's actually Kanglican he just admires Mormons
I'm about at the point wherein I'm going to a priori exclude baby boomers from intellectual consideration.
What you don't appreciate their depth of self-help-slogans-as-thought?
I can't think of one I respect.
Can you?
Am I forgetting one?
No
I've basically cut all out all blogshit
I forgot; you don't read books.

How do you read buddhism?
Fortune cookie?
I thought it sublimated itself via eating Chinese takeout
