I am a professor of religious studies, and the author of several books on the Bible and theology. I grew up in New York, Virginia, and New Mexico. I attended St. John's College, Annapolis, MD (BA, 1988), Harvard Divinity School (MTS, 1990), and the University of Notre Dame (PhD, 1995). I live in upstate New York with my wife and two wonderful kids. Starting in 2006, I had one of those strange midlife things, and turned my analysis towards horror films and literature. I have written Gospel of the Living Dead: George Romero's Visions of Hell on Earth (Baylor, 2006) - WINNER, 2006 Bram Stoker Award; Dying to Live: A Novel of Life among the Undead (Permuted Press, 2007); Orpheus and the Pearl(Magus Press, 2008); and Dying to Live: Life Sentence(Permuted Press, 2008).

Agreed! I almost cried about four times.
Did you see when the camera fell on Jesse Jackson? Jesse . . . standing perfectly still in a crowd of screaming Obama supporters, shoulders slumped, tears streaming down his face.
I'm with you on that one!
Succinctly and eloquently put, Kim. Despite however people voted, I hope when they saw Obama's victory speech tonight they saw the same thing I did. The beginning of a groundswell, the makings of something exceptionally important and redefining in our nation, and the introduction of the possibility that every child of any class, gender, ethnicity, or religion can truly reach their potential. I feel proud of our country today.
