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:
Few people are capable of expressing with equanimity opinions which differ from the prejudices of their social environment. Most people are even incapable of forming such opinions.

Cheney Shot His Friend, Not the Prime Minister of England
I'm listening to Jerry Bowyer right now. He just read an email that described an amusing antedote to much ado about bird shot. Let's send as many brown paper bags as possible to the major news outlets so they can stop hyperventilating.

Thisentryis part 3 of 5 in the series 2008 Running

"When church music directors lead the congregation in singing some praise music, I often listen stoically with teeth clenched. But one Sunday morning, I cracked. We had been led through endless repetitions of a meaningless ditty called, 'Draw Me Close to You.' The […]
The Perils of 24-hour News
"The scare tactics, poor reporting and lack of reputable sources came to a sad and tragic climax this week as we news junkies watched.
