What Does Your Avatar Represent To You?
I just saw a thread on Avatars and I thought I would ask what your avatar represents or says about you. Mine is of the great Puritan Calvinist Jonathan Edwards . . . one of the greatist minds that have ever existed on the earth. He has influenced great men of Jesus for the last 300 years . . . men like Spurgeon, Boyce, Hodge, Warfield, and more contemporary men like McCarthur and Piper. What about yours?

Mine represents the universal appression of mankind in his fight for equality with the presumed existence of extra-terrestrial life.....
Actually, I just thought it was funny.

I chose Mighty Mouse because it sums up my personality pretty well. I do not take myself terribly seriously, and view myself in somewhat clownish terms. It is my feeling that if I did not take this attitude I would quickly plunge into thinking I alone am right and everyone else is wrong. Not too healthy.
The horns and tail were from a request from someone and I thought it added yet another hilarious aspect. IE. I am a devilish little imp. If you met me in real life you would quickly note my rather zany sense of self depreciating humor and quickly wonder if I was EVER completely serious. Dead straight on that one. I am also highly irreverent... as I have said elsewhere. Can one ever be TOO irreverant. I think not. Likewise, my title of Happy Fool ties in directly with this sentiment. It is only in recent months that I have begun to consider just how naive I am. In some ways, it is rather breathtaking. Last, Piltdown Man was a great hoax. I thought that conveyed my overall opinion of religion rather well. (It has nothing to do with my thoughts on creationism as Yasin suggested a while back.) IE: Religion is a hoax, or rather a vastly amusing cosmic joke.

I chose the tiger, from the bases, because of an anime I watch. There is a character, from Fruits Basket, named Kisa. She is born in the year of the tiger and has a tendency to turn into one. In the one episode that is my favorite, she is unable to speak because she's been teased so much. I related to that in a very big way, as I've had problems with that same thing, and have always pulled my problems deep inside of me.
I admired the way that she was able to get through it, and to keep going to school even when she didn't want to. As such, she's become a symbol of the person that I want to be. And in part, I took that as the strength of the tiger. Plus, big kittys are cute!
