Another wisp of fog

Haven't had a lot of time or head space for blogging this week. Back into full-time work, with things on in the evening, and it soon has to slide. We actually had a hot topic night at my church on Monday night on "Dating ... in a sex-crazed world". Our minister recently got married, a good bit later than many church ministers it would seem, so was in a unique position to comment. My church is also unusual in having a higher proportion than most of what would probably be called "older single people", so it went beyond your usual youth-group relationship material. It was deliberately not recorded, so that things could be said and frank discussion had without that being splashed all over the internet. For that reason I haven't posted anything on it, till I can do so without being modern stupid, but one of the unexpected results of the evening for me was that I learnt a new word (well it's possible I just came up the Clyde on a banana boat when it comes to dating, but I don't think so). I liked it and I'll post it some time.

Last evening when I got home I found a curious package in the mailbox which contained a DVD called Making a Killing - The Untold Story of Psychotropic Drugging. I wondered if this had been widely distributed or I was one of the privileged few. It said it was from the Citizens Commission on Human Rights. I've since looked up the website and this commission claims to be "a non-profit, public benefit organization dedicated to investigating and exposing psychiatric violations of human rights". Turns out it's also founded by the Church of Scientology and is basically part of their campaign against psychiatry and psychiatric drugs. I don't think I am going to bother watching it any time soon!
