"And do you now begin to see why Christianity has always said that the devil is a fallen angel? That is not a mere story for the children. It is a real recognition of the fact that evil is a parasite, not an original thing. The powers which enable evil to carry on are powers given it by goodness."

That's Some Powerful Software

I went over to classmates.com to see if I could hunt down an old buddy from high school. We lost touch in the years after I moved out of state.

The website told me I could view his Q&A, a short list of answers to the basic catch-up questions for people you haven't seen in a while, if I did my own Q&A. It turns out I had already done one, but it was several years ago, and it needed updating-- for example, on how many kids I've got. So I went to look over the list of my previous answers.

Among the questions was this:

Q: Your gender:
A: Male

With this option below it:

Did you use the edit button?

crossed out "delete" and wrote his patient "stet."

No, as luck would have it, I'm still a male. So no change necessary.

You're the funniest (is that a word?) Thinkling, and you're not even a first teamer. However, the apparition that is Blo is the funniest looking Thinkling, but that's because Blo is the only chick Thinkling.

When will you get your own bio at Thinklings?

5. Alan - 03/12/2007 3:31 pm CDT

Herein lies the paradox-- that non-corporeal Blo has a biography, yet I who am true flesh and blood, appear to have no history at all.

Blessed are those who believe without having seen.

Shouldn't that be "without having been seen?" :)

But who is behind that non-corporeal's bio anyway? Mayhaps he is a mini-Alan? GWAHAHAHAHAHA!

Yes yes, I know. I have now blasphemed the name of Blo or something, right? ;)

That's hilarious about the bio options, though. It makes you wonder if someone had to lobby them to put it there. Somebody somewhere surely wanted to edit their sex. "Oh, what a world! What a world!"
