Vanity asks the question: &#8220;Is it popular?&#8221; But conscience asks the question: &#8220;Is it right?&#8221; And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular but one must take it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was speaking with someone recently about tomorrow&#8217;s election and they brought up a very good point that I want to explore in myself.

I found myself getting very pensive about the old question:
&#8220;How do we know what we know?&#8221;
It&#8217;s impossible not to be the progeny of our ancestors in all our beliefs.  In other [...]]]></description>

Some more negative ad campaign junk mail that Karl Rove would be proud of:
This is the most despicable of the lot.  It weakly tries to implicate Obama with terrorism.  For shame!  How about talking about issues?  Why throw stone after stone?

		<description><![CDATA[Guest reader Sarah&#8217;s comment on my blog post about movies referenced in Christian books got me to thinking.

Here&#8217;s what Sarah said:
Since I am clueless most of the time about popular culture, I find it unhelpful at best.
Fair enough remark.  Not everyone is plugged into pop culture in the same ways.  For instance, Sarah&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

Might makes right
Ends justify the means
Winners write the history books

I don&#8217;t collect historical tidbits of the year 1973 for any egotistical reason. It&#8217;s just plain old vanilla obsessive compulsive disorder.  The following are facts I&#8217;ve collected about this year, [...]]]></description>

Besides laser blasters and spaceships, there are quite a few similarities between it and his debut movie Dungeons &#38; Dragons.  For those born yesterday, D&#38;D is probably the most popular role playing game ever.  It also has survived a spat of [...]]]></description>
