TV Like It’s Meant to Be Seen

...like a movie. I jumped on the LOST bandwagon earlier this year, and have watched all 5 seasons over the past 5 months to get caught up before the final season. I wouldn't have it any other way. It's the epitome of instant satisfaction. In fact, I like it so much that I recently watched the second season of Mad Men within a week as well.
Of course, since I work from home, there's really no downside at all, since there's no watercooler gossip to miss, talking about your favorite shows the next day. You might have it different.
But, for non-sitcoms that play out more like broken up movies anyway, you might as well just wait and watch it like one.

Karma Policing

Karma is what we think we want to be in control of the universe, because we think we are morally good people, and will be rewarded as such.
But by what standard are we comparing ourselves? To me, taking the ego crunch of admitting yourself as a failure, and then being both instantly redeemed and progressively reformed to a new life seems more appealing to me - simply from a cost/benefit analysis alone.
Throw in the evidence for the resurrection in there, and Jesus wins in straight sets.
