    Huffington Post falls for obvious Facebook troll page

    And so do HP commenters. Operation Burn Notice, Anti-Scott Walker Recall Group, Seeks To Destroy Petitions This is what passes for political news at HP when they're not promoting quackery and pseudo-science. And would anyone who was really destroying signed recall petitions admit it on...

    Hollywood and Washington, D.C.: proof positive that clirus is full of it

    If prosperity is proof of virtue and poverty is the result of sin (and therefore the poor are deserve no charity or help), then how does clirus explain the rich and powerful who are sinful? Oh, wait, she can't.

    Ayn Rand: a sociopath who admired a sociopathic child murderer

    Ayn Rand’s Superman: A Serial Killer and Rapist » First Thoughts | A First Things Blog I unfortunately already knew enough about Rand, but this is just beyond the pale. It's disgusting that this person, her awful books, and her joke of a philosophy have recently gained influence...

    Down with the people(?)

    Blame the childish, ignorant American public—not politicians—for our political and economic crisis. - By Jacob Weisberg - Slate Magazine While the writer is coming from a liberal point-of-view, I have to admit that I see his point. It seems much of the American public are a bunch of idiots...

    Left and Right

    In my opinion, the views of most people on the modern Left and the modern Right are incompatible with Christianity. Most on the Left support moral/cultural nihilism and while most on the Right celebrate war and bloodshed and have hatred and contempt for the poor (and both sides worship Mammon).

    Persecution is a Holy Word (on oldie but goodie).

    Persecution Is a Holy Word | Christianity Today | A Magazine of Evangelical Conviction Just for any American/Western Christian who still complain about how bad they got it (you don't what persecution even is).

    The Deadliest Warrior

    I like this show, but some of the pairings don't make much sense. They should have had the samurai fighting the knights and the pirates fighting the Vikings.

    Bush calls Clinton his "brother" at Toronto forum

    Bush calls Clinton 'his brother' at Toronto forum - Yahoo! News Yeah, it made me retch, too. Like father, like son, I suppose. I'm sick of politicians regardless of the political party.

    Millennium

    Is anyone else a fan of this series? I used to enjoy it while it was still on prime-time, especially for the apocalyptic/End Times and conspiracy themes, even if they sometimes created confusion about Frank Black's purpose was. The Chiller channel is now airing re-runs.

    Charity begins at home.

    It's an old statement, but it's true. It irks me a bit whenever I see huge benefit concerts put together for relief for Third World countries when there so many people here in America that need help. I'm not saying that the people in these countries are any less important, but it seems to me...

    U.S. religious right concedes defeat.

    US religious Right concedes defeat - Telegraph Predictably, they lay much of the blame on Bush even though they supported him the whole time he was President. I think the real reason people like Dobson lost the culture war is they thought they could win it through attempts at censorship and...

    Social Darwinists who don't believe in evolution.

    What are your opinions of people like this? It should be obvious as to who I'm referring to: They're so-called Christians who reject the theory of evolution yet hypocritically follow a "survival of the fittest" worldview and have a callous, heartless view of the poor, the homeless, and the less...

    Depressing anime.

    I think the most obvious one is FullMetal Alchemist. There were several episodes which just left me an emotional wreck, they were so sad. Neon Genesis Evangelion and a few episodes of Cowboy Bebop are downers, too.

    Battlestar Galactica (the final season)

    Any guesses on how it will turn out? I myself think Earth will be revealed to be the true homeworld of humanity after all, just from looking at evidence from the past seasons.

    Reaching out to atheists: what mistakes do Christians make?

    I think a great many Christians do a terrible job at trying to bring atheists to Christ, and that's because they tend to make sweeping generalizations about them. Once you do things like ridiculously label them all as, say, communists, you just end up pushing people away even further. When I was...
