Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries ….
- Friendly Atheist » Trust Him; He’s a Pastor – Um … I wouldn’t give this guy cab fare, let alone my bank accounting information to pull out stuff. Heck, I don’t like doing that for utility bills, let alone some guy in a sharp suit with a big multi-media screen up on the megachurch state. (Relying on social peer pressure is a pretty dickish move, too.)
- The Plum Line – Dem memo: GOP doesn’t have mandate for repeal – Again, consider that Truman quote …
- Head of Belgian Catholic church: AIDS is justice for gays – So AIDS is “intrinsic justice” for “mistreating human love” through homosexuality. But elderly priests who “mistreated human love” through sexual abuse of children should get a pass from any sort of civil justice. Yeesh.
- Sophisticated Smuggling Tunnel Containing Rail System, Oxygen Pumps, And 30 Tons of Marijuana Discovered [Marijuana] – And you don’t go to that effort (and transport 30 tons of pot at a time) if marijuana isn’t a major money-maker for the drug gangs. Too bad their market didn’t get legalized this week; it might have put a crimp in their profitability.
- Best television adaptations of science fiction and fantasy novels – I love me some Tripods. (And the original books were some great YA SF, too. Hmmmm … need to pull those out for Kay.)
