A great strip from Scott Kurtz, PVP. (A reminder: the image will looked squished so just right-click [control-click] and select “view image” to see the comic in all its glory!)

The True Meaning of Easter

I updated the blog template because of an issue with “permissions” (I could not create new categories, for example). Apparently when I did so I lost the ability to have the sidebars are either…side. So I hope you don’t mind the new look. I am not a fan, but I […]

According to Thorax of Brooke McEldowney’s 9 Chickweed Lane faith is “the unknowable promoted to the irrefutable” “doubt in exile” (my personal favorite) “the child’s comfort” “the fanatic’s trigger” Anyone recognize the piece being hummed/whistled by Thorax?

IOSOT – Passports and Visas for Slovenia

I do not yet have time to blog in this with my own comments, but be sure to read RG’s post about this debate. Interesting and, as always, very humorous. Back after many morning meetings… Ruth Gledhill – Times Online – WBLG: ‘We’d be better off without religion’ March 28, […]

Heart of the City, by Mark Tatulli. A great a creative srip. Passages like Isa. 2 and the knowledge of humanity’s ability to hate itself make it clear to me that such prophetic utterances, in oder to be fulfilled, truly require the existence of a loving redeeming God.

Isaiah – Antiwar Zealot
