Foolish Things

As you may have noticed there’s been a bit of change here. For a couple of reasons which I will soon go into, I have decided to change the name of my blog from “gods.geek” to “Foolish Things”. You can still access the blog at the same address and nothing else will change, just the name.

As I said, I have a couple of reasons for making this change. The first is basically an administrative reason more than anything. There are a few different projects that I have wanted to start for a while now, and I decided that the “gods.geek” name would better serve as an overarching theme for them all. I hope to fill you in on at least one of these projects in the coming weeks.

The second reason is related to recent events and discussions in which I have taken part that have cemented something that I have long believed to be true. I am a fool — at least in the eyes of the world. People look at my beliefs and can’t fathom why or how I could possible hold to them. 1 Corinthians 1:26-29 is one of my favorite sections of the Bible and one that I have vowed to live my life by. This hasn’t always been the case. There was a time when I subscribed more to the beliefs of this world than the ones I now hold and I looked for approval of others. The transformation has been a long, gradual and hard one, but however difficult it has been at times, it has been well worth the trip so far.

So, it is with joy that I now wear the label of “fool” and re-name this blog “Foolish Things”, of which I am one.
