MORE THAN A POSSIBILITY OF MORAL RESPONSIBILITY-Analysis of Galen Strawson’s work.
We say that a process is random if we can’t discern a pattern in it. However, a truly random process can, in principle, produce anypattern by mere chance. Imagine flipping a fair coin. If we can’t discern a pattern in how the coin lands, we might consider it a random process. However, even in a…

Good Friday
In the garden’s hush, as others rest, Past midnight, you’re on watch, the most stressful part of your quest. Morning creeps, sky still darkly dressed, Back to the garden, your steps divest. Your anguish, beyond our view, Foreseeing trials, but you did pursue. No fleeing, no hiding, though shadows grew, You faced it all, for…

Songs and souls eternal
Late I hear the sweet songs of old, Echoes through time, stories retold. Thousands of years, yet nothing’s changed, Invention of the soul, forever ordained. Oh, the melody, it’s been going strong, Through the ages, it carries on. The sweet hum of hymns, eternal and pure, Forever I’ll cherish, forever I’ll endure. Too often we…

Trestle Town Traveler
From the trestle to the mine, The landmarks of my town so fine, But bricks and cowheads line the shore Didn’t think I could bare so much more. Life is good with the ones you love, Don’t complain, trust in God above, Trains and buses tempting me to roam, But for now this is home.…

Flesh’s Weakness, Soul’s Persistence
Restless I am for another battle has begun, Tired my mind grows as another season comes, the days are long but also short, the ocean big, each grain of sand so small. Each made by your hand he made it all. The one who stands by me through battle and peace though I may scatter…
