deathislove

I have recently changed the name of the site from Set to Shuffle to Death is Love.  There are a few reasons for this, one being that Set to Shuffle was the name of a website that my friend and I were working on but ultimately abandoned, I just recycled the name.  However, in this new context it had lost it's earlier meaning.

The second reason I changed the name is that it was hard to tell people what the website was called without a lot of spelling confusion.

The third reason is that deathislove was originally part of a tattoo idea I had and has since morphed into a convenient summary of how I view God's love towards us as humans and how I see the ideal relationship between humans.  We show how much we love one another by what we are willing to sacrifice for one another; how much we are willing to "die to self" for the sake of the one we love.  Thus, our "death to self" demonstrates our love, and so our death to self is our love for another.  It is just a simple concise statement of belief that gets strange looks and allows me to explain and unpack my take on relationships or the Gospel and the situation calls for; that is also why I think it makes a great tattoo.

The final reason I moved away from Set to Shuffle was that the domain was taken.
