From Dalek sex to religious memoir via portentous bigotry
Dalek P or n - via, of course, spark_au.
If you are willing to step foot inside a Starbucks™, take up the fair trade challenge.
Adam Baldwin, [as he stars in] Serenity star. Jake Andrews, entirely different sort of star (not work safe [new worksafe version, click 'muscle']).
Good news on the HIV front.
Apparently, Star Wars has provided part of the lexicon of modern Christian language.
Change in Greenhouse emissions since 1990 by industrialised country. The collapse of communism had by far the “greenest” effect (but that is true generally). “Green” Canada and New Zealand have done rather worse than “Brown” US in increasing emissions.
Its Catholically official: homosexuals destabilise society. Gays generally cannot be priests because they are not secure in their masculine identity. The full text of the Vatican document. Putting the best possible construction on the words of the text. The first known priest resigns over the new Vatican position on homosexuals. Pope Benedict is using the sexual abuse issue as an excuse, not a reason. Clearly, the simple notion that homosexuals are just folks is regarded as profoundly offensive and that they are not is unexceptional. It is also classic scapegoating: the priest abuse scandals are to be construed as being a result of the Church’s “excessive generosity” in allowing homosexuals to join the priesthood. Pope Benedict is managing to be both Pontius Pilate and Caiaphas.
Pope Benedict seems less than thrilled by interfaith meetings.
About a very matter-of-fact spiritual memoir.
