Negative Space: religion
- The Adjustment Bureau
- A potentially great movie, The Adjustment Bureau devolves into a chase and a cheap love story in the final third of the film. It’s as if they ended the first Matrix movie with Trinity and Neo settling down in the suburbs of the Matrix.
- Article VI
- Article Six of the U.S. Constitution transfers power from the Articles of Confederation to the Republic.
- Divine Lore
- Lists of divine spirits and gods.
- Is religious faith a political sin?
- I’d be more afraid of someone who masturbates emotionlessly, than someone who follows Christianity’s teachings on adultery.
- Lord, thy will is hard
- We all fulfill God’s will. From the mightiest to the lowliest, we all are a part in God’s plan. Ask any Christian, and they’ll tell you that they believe this. Get down to the specifics, however, and you’ve touched on a central, and difficult, part of Christian faith.
- The Temple of Aphaea at Aegina
- On the north coast of Aegina, about 9 miles from the ancient town, there was a sanctuary on a wooded ridge. There, people were by the second millennium already worshipping a nature deity, who in Greek times bore the name Aphaea.
- There will be lies
- The media takes a blunder by Coons on the first amendment—and outright changes what both candidates said to make it look like a blunder by O’Donnell.
- Why Drugs?
- Whether it is children spinning themselves into hallucinations or religions incorporating mind-altering drugs, there appears to be some human need to induce “variations in consciousness”.

“Now You’re Eighth Level”, from Chick Publications. So, I want to know where this “Mind Bondage” spell is, that causes your parents to buy you tons of gaming materials... I could have used that about twenty years ago. Beware of the cute javascript app.
