Random Endorsement
"Funky Dung is one of those rarities of the Evangelical Ghetto, a Roman Catholic. I have found that his blog is a useful antidote to the lingering bigotry amongst some Evangelicals (as opposed to constructive debate) against the RCC, and his site is wonderful at showing some of the things that we have in common. Any Christian can learn from his examinations of piety and faith, not just fellow Catholics. His posts about uniquely Catholic topics (as opposed to general Christian ones) are excellent at dispelling some of the misconceptions that abound, and even if I can't fully subscribe to them all, I find them well worth reading." -

random thought of the moment:
If a government resorts to inflation, that is, creates money in order to cover its budget deficits or expands credit in order to stimulate business, then no power on earth, no gimmick, device, trick or even indexation can prevent its economic consequences.

Dr. Paul May Do Harm
On 21 May 2008, “Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008” became law. Essentially, the act prohibits health insurance companies from denying coverage to someone with negative genetic makeup. This law is good legislation since it guarantees that everyone has the opportunity to enroll in or buy into health insurance to help improve or save peoples’ […]
