Fried Brain

I don't have a whole lot of anything creative worthwhile to say. I think it's a combination of no gluten, no Diet Coke, and no coffee. I'm trying to eat better to control some digestive problems I've been fighting since college. I've also had a lot of thoughts on my mind lately. I've recently read some articles/blog posts that have really helped me round out my thinking in some areas. Here they are:

  • I've really been frustrated with the hypocrisy behind Christian women reading Fifty Shades of Grey and watching Magic Mike. Most women don't want their husbands looking at porn, so why do they think it's okay for women to read or watch these?

    • A Christian's view on both
    • A Plugged-In review of Magic Mike from Focus on the Family
      • Caution: this review is not suitable for children.
    • A liberal, non-Christian view of Fifty Shades of Grey
      • Please excuse her language. I think it's really valuable to read a non-Christian perspective. She's actually against the book as well! 
  • I've also been frustrated with many Christians panicking over the recent Obamacare ruling. Sure, it's a really bad idea. Sure, it's going to mess up our country further. Sure, Obama is arguably the worst president we've ever had. (Well, maybe some of the lesser known old dudes could've been worse, idk.) However, God will take care of us. He takes care of the sparrows, right? Here's a great radio interview/transcript on how new American immigrants view America. It's humbling to hear them speak of the glory of our country. We really do have a lot to be thankful for.

  •  On a more positive note, I've been eating gluten-free this week. It's been okay so far. Here are some helpful links I've found:
Sorry for the complete randomness of  this post. I hope some of the reviews are helpful. Hopefully no one stumbled on my blog after researching recipes for fried brain. ; ) Sorry if you did!
