About jamesbradfordpate

My name is James Pate. This blog is about my journey. I read books. I watch movies and TV shows. I go to church. I try to find meaning. And, when I can’t do that, I just talk about stuff that I find interesting. I have degrees in fields of religious studies. I have an M.Phil. in the History of Biblical Interpretation from Hebrew Union College in Cincinnati, Ohio. I also have an M.A. in Hebrew Bible from Jewish Theological Seminary, an M.Div. from Harvard Divinity School, and a B.A. from DePauw University.

    Thank you very kindly for reblogging. I’d forgotten about this. It was nice to revisit that time.

    Happy New Year!!

    I could identify with it. I have had my periods of recovery from evangelicalism, and I could be snarky to Christians in those times.

    I have been taking a vacation from social media the last few months. I will probably go back on when it’s my birthday, or family members’ birthday, since I am more comfortable exchanging birthday greetings there than by phone. Otherwise, though, I am enjoying the vacation. It can get lonely, but I do like the vacation from the rancor and being inundated with people’s opinions (though I read people’s opinions, only in smaller doses).
