Name:Daniel
Home: Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada
About Me: I used to believe that evolution was reasonable, that homosexuality was genetic, and that people became Christians because they couldn't deal with the 'reality' that this life was all there was. I used to believe, that if there was a heaven - I could get there by being good - and I used to think I was more or less a good person. I was wrong on all counts. One day I finally had my eyes opened and I saw that I was not going to go to heaven, but that I was certainly going to suffer the wrath of God for all my sin. I saw myself as a treasonous rebel at heart - I hated God for creating me just to send me to Hell - and I was wretched beyond my own comprehension. Into this spiritual vacuum Jesus Christ came and he opened my understanding - delivering me from God's wrath into God's grace. I was "saved" as an adult, and now my life is hid in Christ. I am by no means sinless, but by God's grace I am a repenting believer - a born again Christian.

Daniel's posts are almost always pastoral and God centered. I appreciate and am challenged by them frequently. He has a great sense of humor as well.
- Marc Heinrich
His posts are either funny or challenging. He is very friendly and nice.
- Rose Cole
[He has] good posts, both the serious like this one, and the humorous like yesterday. [He is] the reason that I have restrained myself from making Canadian jokes in my posts.
- C-Train
This post contains nothing that is of any use to me. What were you thinking? Anyway, it's probably the best I've read all day.
- David Kjos
Daniel, nicely done and much more original than Frank the Turk.
- Jonathan Moorhead
There are some people who are smart, deep, or funny. There are not very many people that are all 3. Daniel is one of those people. His opinion, insight and humor have kept me coming back to his blog since I first visited earlier this year.

| Twas... |
Twas twixt the tweed n' twinkle-briar,
where fast stood he that fatted friar
neath sable ether,
twain field n' sky,
below that silver autumn's eye,
silent neath that twilight's choir,
twixt, tweed n' weed n' twinkle-briar,
hoary head inclined
twain sky n' field,
In mire lo the old knees kneeled,
Yea dawn did find him in the mire
twixt tweed n' weed n' twinkle-briar.
- Daniel
Okay, so there is no such thing as twinkle-briar, and tweed is a textile, but I like the syncopation and the flavor!
Did I mention that I am a flippery fish slimy mollusc again? Woot! (I know I am a little old to be using "woot!" but I thought why not?)
In other news:
Bryan's lawyers have advised him to use the "cloak of liberty" defense in order to justify offending others...
C-Train's blogsphere comeback was pretty funny.
Rose Cole's has entered the home stretch on her current series on TULIP.
Marc over at purgatorio finally entered his seven sevens meme tag blog with his own personally flair.
And beyond all reason - my bizarre and freakish avatar where I morph my face into that of a Tim Burtonesque Lemur type thing and back, has likely generated more hits on the page than everthing I have ever done before - proving once and for all, if you look like a freak, people will stop in to see just how deep the rabbit hole goes... |

Daniel,
I've decided your Avatar is really a visual metaphor of becoming all things to all people and therefore acceptable to me now... eeesh, who am I kidding, it still gives me the willies!
-
nice alliteration on the poem...so what if tweed is a textile and twinkle briar is non-existent...if Lewis Carroll can make up words to fit, so can you.
your avatar looks like monk/dagwood schizophrenia
-
I love paintings by Caspar David Friedrich.
-
Admit it, you put that Lemur-type pictorial just to rival Frank Turk. I think you came out the winner on that one.
-
Kim - Hey, welcome to my blog!
Frank's eyebrow is trademarked material, it is out of my league - he doesn't just have the jumping eyebrow - he has that whole "shekinah of glory" thing going on. Who can top that??
-
Dr. Seuss made up words too, Bilbo.
-
I heard that Dr. Seuss (rhymes with loose) was originally supposed to ryhme with Joyce. I wonder if that is an urban myth?
-
You are so creative. Now quit looking at me like that!
-
Daniel, I think your Avatar shows you must be a Reptilian-Hybrid, one of the descendants of the Nephilim-
