After days of rioting, the media seem to indicate that the tumult over the depiction of the prophet of Mohammad is beginning to die down. But has it really? |
"An Egyptian Journal" is a travelogue which shows that fantasies about a place and reality don't always mix. The book is by the British novelist William Golding, of "Lord of the Flies" fame.

“I SAW IT MYSELF” After leaving the George Washington Bridge, the first state we came to was New Jersey. Despite having miles of beaches and the nickname the "Garden State", most people I knew wouldn't consider it much of a haven for nature. |
“TRAVEL IN LOCAL SPACES”
“Green Lake State Park” I was intrigued by the idea of Green Lakes State Park just by the description. The park contains two lakes, Green Lake and Round Lake, that are regarded as meromictic. |

What is the world today supposed to be? What is it about, and why? Is there any reason to even care about asking these questions anymore? What is a church of the streets, anyway?
The “First Church of The Streets” is a means of answering these questions. It is non-sectarian in the sense that it doesn't rely on any one religion to satisfy these answers. Neither does the church of the streets negate religion for comfort in secular classic philosophy. With it not being constrained to any particular dogma, the church of the streets can employ any or all of these methods. It is also free to use those schools which are considered too foolish to answer anything by so-called higher thinkers, such as popular culture. Just as religion and philosophy seem to give comfort to many in times of uncertainty, to many, popular culture is a refuge and an oasis. In this respect, it is as much a part of the church of the streets as anything else. History Starting in 1998 I started posting my poetry and short stories online. My first website was an inclusion of these writings. When I completed my first two novels, I made them available online, in their entirety: New Earth Works. The E-zine was a natural extension of this activity. It went online in March 2003. It includes observations, as well as expository thinking. Since this is an e-zine of many ideas, outside submissions are welcome. Any topic is welcome, providing that one attacks issues and not people. title="Click to Comment or Contact Us">© 2003-2006 All writing, music or photography presented on this site is the property of their respective and individual creators.
