boiling frustration

Dear Minnesota Army National Guard,

Thank you very much for your interest in me as an employee. However, I am a pacifist and employment in a military organization would be against my morals.

Good luck,
Heather Anderson

you have dual citizenship? that's way cool! which other country claims you? i wish another country claimed me!
my pacifism stems from liberal christianity, so i can't quite justify dumping my anger on them. not everyone can be a pacifist (a government that will not defend itself is not a government very long), but i am appalled at our current strategy for just about everything.

Well, I guess I have triplicate citizenship w/ USA, Canada, and Italy. And yet I've lived in the US, Ireland & Canada.
I notice that you're doing the theology thing. I've got my MA in theology (BA in Theo., English, Art & Music).
I'm just getting the hang of the LJ thing and am transferring my old blog to this site...still have a lot of work to do. You do seem to have a lot of the same opinions I've come up with tho.

Ceil
(I wonder if it'd be easier to IM or email?)

where did you study theology? have you found christianleft? or were you raised with a different faith? feel welcome to read my credo if you are interested (just a day or two past in posting). and please feel welcome to e-mail or im me (info on my userinfo page). i'm not often online for im, but it does happen occasionally.
i've only lived in mn for a year. i am originally from northern va. i am terribly homesick and very interested in new friends in the area...however far you may be, you are closer than the friends i grew up with. one of my best friends ever is named cecilia, btw, but she is bolivian, not canadian. :)
