his is a bit of a ramble so bear with me :)

So I have been a casual fan of Dr. Who for a while and I have never seen the original series. The wife and I decided to watch the relaunch on Netflix instant watch (m new favorite thing). after 3 seasons I realized that Dr. Who is something I always tell people Sci-fi has the potential to be, but rarely is.

Have you every thought about mercy and grace and peace? I mean really think about them. How can we bring peace to the world? If you were given perfect wit, power, and intellect would you have the power to restrain yourself? If all you wished was to bring peace to all and you had the powers of a god could you do it?

I’m not sure if it is that every season begins at Christmas or the fact that the most powerful things in the universe are words but something in it makes me so dang excited I can’t even begin to express it. not only is The Doctor this crazy detailed image of God but he actually works in the Sci-fi world they writers created. The show is uniquely able to do some amazing things that would seem out of place or inappropriate in other context. The Doctor on the other hand is a character who I believe capable of unmatched and seemingly irrational grace and mercy. He is capable of moving freely thorough time but will not changing time but allowing free will of all humans determine the outcomes of all events. His acts are called upon by all who ask and even occasionally prayers(physic paper). now with all that said about his mercy and grace the flip-side of that is that it is said (by River Song)just his presence in the midst of those who know him can drive back armies of evil. and that at times his justice and mercy are so great that he hides it from those who it will destroy because he has mercy in a way that we don’t understand and cant comprehend.

So go watch Dr Who…I’m waiting…seriously

Once I watch the rest of the old episodes Im planning on a whole treatise on Dr Who so stay tuned for my newest obsession!
