Things I have recently spotted that may
be of interest to someone else:
Christianity: A blogger from Relevant
warns
Christians against being known for what they are against -- and
there's a lot of that going around.
Why a Christianity Today blogger likes
the mainstream media.
Another article on Relevant has an
annotated list
of things that many Christians think the Bible says, but it doesn't,
such as "cleanliness is next to godliness."
And Relevant also has a post on the value (and extreme rarity) of silence in the Christian life.
Politics: FiveThirtyEight, the statistical site, says that Rand
Paul, Republican Presidential candidate, will have serious problems winning the nomination.
Sports: FiveThirtyEight also says that Kentucky
men's basketball coach, John Calipari, lost because he used the wrong
strategy at the end of his team's Final Four match with Wisconsin, on April 4th. (Kentucky had not lost a game all season, up to that point.)
FiveThirtyEight also posted on the amazing efficiency of the Connecticut women's basketball team, compared to all other women's college basketball teams
-- no wonder they won. (This was posted before the Huskies beat Notre Dame on April 7th.)

Musings on science, the Bible, and fantastic literature (and sometimes basketball and other stuff).
God speaks to us through the Bible and the findings of science, and we should listen to both types of revelation.
The title is from Psalm 84:11.
The Wikipedia is usually a pretty good reference. I mostly use the World English Bible (WEB), because it is public domain. I am grateful.
