    Awesome new exhibit at the Museum of Natural Science. I would highly recommend anyone with an interest in history, archeology or religion to check it out. Be sure & hit the Planetarium for the accompanying video...it covers the entire dome at times, very cool.

    Exhibit opens Friday the 1st.

    Yeah, Buck's just posting this so people can figure out that he was important enough to go to some swanky party last night and see the exhibit before most everyone else. :D

    Really interested in this. The fiancee and I will be checking it out.

    I am definitely going. The Tibetan Treasures exhibit following it looks to be incredible as well.

    Jesus said, "If those who lead you say to you: See, the kingdom is in heaven, then the birds of the heaven will go before you; if they say to you: It is in the sea, then the fish will go before you. But the kingdom is within you, and it is outside of you. When you know yourselves, then you will be known, and you will know that you are the sons of the living Father. But if you do not know yourselves, then you are in poverty, and you are poverty."
    ~Gospel of Thomas, Saying 3

    you know the Gospel of Thomas has nothing to do with the Dead Sea Scrolls, right?

    Yeah. I'm actually attempting to find some sort of gainful employment over there.

    If I can find a couple of peeps to head out with me, I'll be at Dean's tonight...

    I know there is no real connection. It is my favorite Jesus quote though. I just felt like sharing.
