Here I am now, entertain me!

I'm stuck home on a Sunday morning. I'm sick and I'm bored.

Ask me anything.

ETA: As my sick son watches Scooby Doo cartoons in the background -- did you know Shaggy's real first name is "Norville"? Like, I had no idea!

Wow, you don't fool around, do you? Let's see if I can answer these briefly without doing them a total injustice:

Most reprehensible: self-centeredness (because it leads to every other kind of reprehensible behavior -- there's a good reason that "pride" is the worst of the Seven Deadlies). Best: self-sacrifice ("Greater love hath no man...").

I don't think I'm up to debating the nature of good and evil in less than 5,000 words, so I'll just say that I believe good is that which conforms to and flows from the character of God and leads us back to Him, whereas evil is a rejection of God's order and authority that leads us farther away from Him.

One quality or attribute to give to a child: Wisdom.

Agreed. :D And I hope you don't might that I've abruptly become a rabid reader of your blog, hoping to steal some writing tips. :)

Well, I don't know how many tips I have to offer -- my writing method at present seems to consist chiefly of trying things and finding out they don't work -- but I'm always glad for more readers! Welcome!
