Things I have recently spotted that may be of interest to someone else:
Humor:
Science:
The Panda's Thumb presents evidence against Michael Behe (Darwin's Black Box) claims of irreducible complexity.
The same blog (which is indispensable on the subject of Intelligent Design -- they don't like it) refers to an article by Robert John Russell, who believes in God's creative activity, but says that ID is not scientifically supportable.
The ID movement sometimes claims (at least to non-Christians) that it does not know who the Designer is/was. As Russell says, if living things were designed, it was either by God or by a natural agent, which, if the latter, must have not been designed, but appeared due to chance processes.
Politics:
or maybe Religion: Article in USA Today about the religion of President George Washington. According to the article, he at least believed in Divine Providence.
Sports:
Computing:
Literature:
A good blog post on "The Sacramental Theology of Gene Wolfe."
A blogger has re-written the end of Tolkien's The Return of the King, as if, she says, Ursula K. Le Guin had written it.
Philosophy:
Christianity:
This week's Christian Carnival is here. (For information on locating these Carnivals, see here.)
When I don't tell where I found an item above, I either found it directly, or was probably pointed to it by the Librarian's Internet Index, SciTech Daily, or Arts and Letters Daily. All of these sources are great.
Thanks for reading! Keep clicking away.
