      China's prosperity inspires rising spirituality

      Posted by Billbar from Christian Science Monitor

      As China becomes more wealthy and worldly, it's also experiencing a growing interest in spirituality. Chinese are emerging with "more time and freedom to think," says Yuan Ci, a monk who works with the Buddhist Association of China in Beijing. In doing so, they are helping to revive China's venerable religions, like Buddhism.

    • Breaking the Spell: Review

      Posted by Billbar from Majikthise

      There is widespread concern that understanding religion as a natural phenomenon would undermine religious faith. Dennett agrees that disenchantment is an empirical possibility, but Breaking the Spell doesn't appeal to naturalistic explanations to refute or discredit religion.

      Satellite Sleuth Closes in on Noah�s Ark Mystery

      Posted by Billbar from Live Science

      Images taken by aircraft, intelligence-gathering satellites and commercial remote-sensing spacecraft are fueling an intensive study of the intriguing oddity. But whether the anomaly is some geological quirk of nature, playful shadows, a human-made structure of some sort, or simply nothing at all—that remains to be seen.

    The Cult of Chris McCandless

    I just watched this film and I am haunted. Although I knew about  Chris I had no idea that his journey killed him. I will forever remember him and I am better for knowing that he was bold and brave enough to do what he needed to do.

    I am also very sad that he only found out to late that there is nothing without the company of others.

    His life will be remembered.

    If anyone knows an email address for his family I would love to convey my respects(after all these years)

    Vitter was a repeat customer

    Vitter was a repeat customer and will continue his illegal and immoral activity as long as he can go to his priest and be forgiven. He and his wife seem to feel that they deserve forgiveness from the American people but in the eyes of many, the hypocrisy is worse than the sin itself. We are a broadminded and forgiving nation, but when looking back on the self righteous attitudes of he and he wife during the Clinton/Lewinsky scandel, most of us feel no pity for these two.
