With all the talk about gun control, it turns out that the trend over the last 25 years has been toward deregulation.
Who’d a thunk?
On Affability as a virtue.
It’s a discipline I got by hard example from my dad. 🙂
Howdy. Here’s some interesting reading:
* 83% of physicians are considering quitting, and other interesting answers from a Doctor Patient Medical Association survey.
* CS Lewis and GK Chesterton agree: Tyranny for the good of the people is called… tyranny.
* Similarly, in test cases tyranny leads to rebellion.
* Passive solar heat from aluminum cans. What I want is aluminum can air conditioning.
* Book burning
Here’s a collection of my favorites from today’s reading:
Jollyblogger has a new post up. I really love to watch this man think, and I think it’s a great pity that he’s able write so rarely.
It also strikes me as odd how a man can be so important while chastising himself for thinking he might be important. Particularly when the thing that makes him important is how profoundly he realizes his pride in thinking he might be important. Similarly with courage: It is sad, but bright to see someone die so well.
So apparently Jesus never said much about what happens when you die. I think I’ve seen this kind of thinking before – in high school. But from a pastor??
John Calvin would have supported the Occupy Wall Street movement says Setri Nyomi, the General Secretary of the World Communion of Reformed Churches.
My guess is that Nyomi spent more time reading theology than biography.
This is why every mom should be trained as a nurse. Also: note the clinical style. 🙂
Update: Continued in Parts 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. Part 7 is an interview with the patient.
Speaking as literature analyst, I must tell you that the terse style is excellent for bringing out the emotional pull of the experience. As a friend I can say, That’s a good mommy! I’m also left with the distinct sense that Tom is a better husband than I.
I also love the chatterbox questionaire. I’d love to see Jocelyn answer some classic theology questions.
Says Doug Wilson:
‘I looked and looked,’ Matthew said, ‘and there is no book in the whole library called Ibid.’
I’ve often referenced Ibid myself. It’s a very useful resource!
