Good morning.
- A book reviewed, a commentary on Acts by Pelikan.
- I mentioned this once before, but in case y’all missed it, one of the better web-comics … girl genius, on a MWF schedule.
- One survey of the top 20 (public) intellectuals has all of the top ten as Muslim scholars. Hmmm.
- South America and terror.
- The UN and free speech.
- A prominent Protestant blogger, in a sideways fashion, finds a reason for personal (spoken!) confession.
- Some bad maps noted. Another map of (political interest) here.
- Power generation from … the humble brassiere.
- Some music for your morning, Bruckner’s Ave Maria.
- Ephraim! On St. John the Forerunner aka John the Baptist.
- A le Tour preview (or at least some history) for the anglophone … Mr Simpson.
- I don’t think the logic is quite as cut and dried as he makes out.
- Mr Imus and the Obama race speech/moment thing.
- Marking Mr Washington.
Mr Imus and the Obama race speech/moment thing.
Interesting point. Question: is it a good thing or a bad thing if Obama’s speech has caused us to judge a person as a whole rather than as exemplified by a single facet?
JA,
So how does that apply to Mr Imus … who I’ll admit I’ve never listened to, so I can’t say I have any real opinion of him or his character.
I’m in the same boat as you regarding Imus. No idea what his character is like outside of these incidents.
