Out of Town

November 18, 2005 · No Comments

Well, I’ve been working out of town for the last few days, hence, no new posts.
 
I haven’t even had a lot of time to listen to my iPod.
 
However, I did have time to find this little nugget, thanks to my homegirl back back at home:
 
 
Enjoy, people.  And make sure that you look at the Q and A.  It’s worth the time.
 
I’ll be back soon, with tales of frivolity and such from our West Coast.  I think.

This cannot be.
Cardinal Paul Poupard, head of the Pontifical Council for Culture, said the Genesis description of how God created the universe and Darwin’s theory of evolution were "perfectly compatible" if the Bible were read correctly.

His statement was a clear attack on creationist campaigners in the US, who see evolution and the Genesis account as mutually exclusive.

Wait a minute.  Did I read about this last week?  Oh, no, not exactly.
 

Cardinal Paul Poupard, who heads the Pontifical Council for Culture ( search), made the comments at a news conference on a Vatican project to help end the "mutual prejudice" between religion and science that has long bedeviled the Roman Catholic Church and is part of the evolution debate in the United States.

Ok.  Wait a second.  Who is this Cardinal Paul Poupard guy?  Hmm.  This bears watching; something is afoot.  Is one of the Big Culture Wars about to REALLY get started?

Shout Out To A Friend

November 1, 2005 · 1 Comment

Hey, L,
 
I noticed that you have starteed a Cleanse.
 
I wish you luck.  I know what you mean, feeling nasty emotionally and physically.  Really, the last few days, I can’t even describe how badly I’ve been feeling.  Probably stress has a lot to do with it.  But we’re with you, babe.  You have friends.  And you know how to get a hold of us if you need to. 
 
So hey, hon.  Just showin’ a little love.  Ok?  Hang in there.  If you do, I will.  Promise.
