Back by popular demand... here are this week's links:
: Another time-wasting game. Shawn says, "get to the top left corner and chill, then cut across the middle to the bottom right." He got 22.352 seconds.
: Fundamentalism = bad. Some of these quotes are borderline unbelievable.
: Write an email to your future self and browse emails others have written to their future selves.
: This is pretty cool. You can watch a sketch go from nothing to a portrait of a woman beginning with the skeletal frame to the end product.
: Ever wondered what a website would look like in ""? Gizoogle can translate whole webpages into izzle. This is what mine would look like. My favorite: "I, along wit T-to-tha-izzom, proposed present'n a to-be-wrizzle papa witin tha topic of Christianity n globalizizzle." Some of the language may offend. (Thanks, )
: Christianity Today interviews Ben Witherington III, professor of New Testament at Asbury Seminary in Kentucky. An excerpt: "Perhaps in a postmodern culture—where image and story are more important than text and didactic argument—the Bible is more relevant than ever. Exactly. In the 21st century, we're moving increasingly in a postmodern direction. We have a new opportunity to re-engage the biblical text, which is trying to present word pictures and stories to a world that wants not just answers to its questions, but also its imagination fired up. That's what this visual dimension of the text does."
haha! Although it might sound stupid, try it out and before you know it you’ll understand what i mean! I really liked that game, and love that FLF is back in action. I cried last week. :’(
after staying up way too late conversing with jake on the issue, i thought i’d post a comment…
on “American Taliban”… While it’s scary some of the things said in here, I think it’s sad the juxtaposition of certain people under any umbrella unit simply because they may all fit in the shoe of “fundamental christian.” For one thing, fundamental christian shoes come in a variety of sizes, colors, widths, and souls… yes, pun intended. Lumping the likes of Ann Coulter and Fred Phelps into the same category as those like James Dobson and Gary Bauer is really as ridiculous as trying to put any assortment of individuals into any one box and assuming the lid will fit nicely closed.
