		<description><![CDATA[Braveheart. My favorite movie of all-time, by a substantial margin. Every time I watch this  movie I end up having fantasies about being William Wallace of Scotland &#8212; living and dying for a great cause, far beyond myself. Being willing to take risks. Living to go after what I want, and not merely to avoid [...]

		<description><![CDATA[Many Christian people don&#8217;t worship God, they worship the Bible. I assume the same is true of other sacred books such as the Koran, the Torah, and the Bagavhad Gita, although it wouldn&#8217;t HAVE to be this way.

My remarks were based substantially on the work of Dr. John Gottman, who has probably done more research on marriage than any other person in the country. I highly recommend his books. &#160; Related [...]
