Just a quick reminder: blogactionday (October 15) is approaching rapidly--next Monday! This is a day where bloggers are encouraged to devote a posting to the environment, regardless of their views of the multifarious issues surrounding this topic.
existdissolve.com is signed up for it, and I would encourage fellow bloggers to do the same. It only takes a second, and you can do it at blogactionday.org .
Finally, as a bit of mild entertainment, blogactionday.org has released a "What Kind of Blogger are You?" test. I took the test and am apparently an "undiscovered young upstart purist." Hmmm...Anyway, if it sounds interesting, take the test here . If you do, let me know in the comments how you fared...

Welcome to my blog. I am often asked what "Exist/Dissolve" means. Well, that is certainly a good question, and I am currently in the process of discovering the answer myself. Prima facie, it strikes me as encapsulating the existensial crisis that is our lives as finite, contingent beings. For a brief moment, we exist, and the next we dissolve into the nothingness of non-existence. From a theological perspective, it is, for me, a sort of ad hoc apologetic for resurrection - i.e., if to exist/dissolve is the human dilemma, there is nothing inherent to the person that guarantees existence, either now or "after" death. Therefore, resurrection is at the same time both the height of absurdity (for it is a notion entirely alien to the paradigm of existence to which we are naturally enculturated) and the only hope for the human to persevere beyond the pale of death.
