- Pope seeks to impact US presidential race
  Posted by Jeff from Rawstory
  "The Pope certainly can elevate the debate and force presidential aspirants to grapple with these issues," says the president of a polling company to ABC's Dan Harris, who asks, "So even though he doesn't vote here, he doesn't live here, he wasn't elected here, he can impact the race here?" The pollster replies, "Sure."

- US evangelicals aim to influence European law
  Posted by Jeff from Christian Science Monitor
  The Busekros case is emblematic of the growing effort by US Christian legal organizations to take the "culture wars" overseas. Pushing back against a perceived assault on their values by an increasingly secular society, the groups are striving to influence European law on issues ranging from home schooling to stem-cell research to gay marriage.

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.
