If there&#8217;s one thing that the people of the Tea Party don&#8217;t do, it&#8217;s subtlety.
At a speech Saturday night, Tea Party Congressman Allen West of Florida served up some red meat to the crowd by telling President Obama, and other prominent Democrats, to &#8220;get the hell out of the United States.&#8221;
And we need to let President Obama, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and my dear friend the chairman of the Democrat National Committee [Debbie Wasserman Schultz], we need to let them know Florida ain&#8217;t on the table. Take your message of equality of achievement, take your message of economic dependency, take your message of enslaving the entrepreneurial will and spirit of the American people somewhere else. You can take it to Europe, you can take it to the bottom of the sea, you can take it the North Pole, but get the hell out of the United States of America.&#8221;

Yep.  I&#8217;m off to California, starting Tuesday, for a few days to attend the Emergent Village Theological Conversation on Process Theology.  It&#8217;s a new, to me, theological position, one that I can see some of the plusses and minuses in.  I&#8217;m definitely looking forward to learning more over the next few days and getting to pick Bruce Epperly&#8216;s brain a little.  I&#8217;ve been reading his book to study up for this conference, so it&#8217;ll be an experience to be able to interact with him a bit.
I&#8217;m also pretty stoked to hear Julie Clawson.  In &#8220;God, Creation, and Theology &#8211; A Few Questions&#8220;, she expresses some of the same concerns about Process thought that I do, particularly concerning the presuppositions that Process moves forward from.
It goes without saying that it&#8217;ll be nice to catch up with Tripp Fuller and Bo Sanders, a couple of the theology nerds behind the Homebrewed Christianity ...]]></description>

Today, during President Obama&#8217;s visit to Arizona, reporters say the Governor and he exchanged some &#8220;tense words&#8221;.  The AP snapped this photo:

I can almost here her say &#8220;Now you listen to me, boy!&#8221;
Way to embarrass the entire state of Arizona, Governor GED.

Interesting article, an interview with Chael Sonnen, posted by a friend of mine on Facebook:
The most recent example was Edson Barboza’s profuse denials of responsibility for his spin-kick KO of Terry Etim. He repeatedly pointed at the sky to indicate that the kick had been divinely ordained.
“You know, these guys want to talk about God. &#8216;Oh, I want to thank God. I want to thank God.’” he told MMA Fighting.
“Listen, I&#8217;m a God-fearing man, go to church every Sunday and have since I was a boy. But if I ever found out that God cared one way or another about a borderline illegal fist-fight on Saturday night, I would be so greatly disappointed that it would make rethink my entire belief system.” &#8211; HT: Fighters Only Magazine
Mark Driscoll is going to be ever so disappointed.

We&#8217;re now three weeks into 2012 and things are settling down into the standard rhythm after a fairly hectic holiday season.  Kids are back in school, heading towards spring break, and work has returned to somewhat normalcy.
So, what could I possibly have on my mind?
Well, the way my mind works, once things become somewhat automatic, it frees up brain cells to contemplate life, the universe, and everything.  In other words, it leaves plenty of time to be misbehavin&#8217;.
First &#8211; This was a great weekend.  I skated out of work early on Friday to spend some QT with Charlotte.  One of my outcomes this year was to definitely spend more time dating my wife.  I truly believe that it&#8217;s one of the keys to a successful marriage.  We got to hang out, run some errands, and came home with our new phones.  I&#8217;m loving my Droid Bionic.
Saturday was nice and relaxing. ...]]></description>

Oy, are we really so lazy a nation that now going through a drive-thru for fast food is an inconvenience?
Burger King thinks so.
&#160;
Burger King (BKC), trying to regain its place as the nation&#8217;s second largest fast-food chain, is trying out home delivery in an effort to boost sales. This is just one of a number of unexpected experiments going on right now. Chains usually try discounts and other moves at this time of year to counter a seasonal sales slump.
According to the company website, deliveries cost $2, and there is a minimum order of $8 to $10, depending on the market. Customers can order online or by phone. The restaurant is delivering meals such as 40-piece Chicken Tenders and two bottled drinks for $10.99 and four large sandwich combos for $23.99. (However, if you&#8217;re hankering for a milkshake or a breakfast sandwich, you&#8217;re out of luck. Shakes, fountain drinks, milkshakes, coffee ...]]></description>

This morning, I had planned to take HT dark for 24 hours in protest of SOPA and PIPA, the corporate &#8220;anti-piracy&#8221; internet legislation winding its way through Congress.
While I agree that piracy is an issue, I believe these two bills are draconian in nature, as they allow corporations and the government to force ISPs to censor or even completely remove websites from the internet.
There are better ways to combat piracy.
From the EFF:
Big media and its allies in Congress are billing the Internet blacklist legislation as a new way to battle online infringement. But innovation and free speech advocates know that this initiative will do little to stop infringement online. What it will do is compromise Internet security, inhibit online expression, and slow growth in the technology sector.
As drafted, the legislation would grant the government and private parties unprecedented power to interfere with the Internet&#8217;s underlying infrastructure. The government would be ...]]></description>

A Senate panel led by an East Valley lawmaker agreed Tuesday to let schools opt out of the federal program to offer free and reduced-price lunches for needy students.
Sen. Rich Crandall, R-Mesa, said the state should not be imposing these mandates on public schools. He said the decision whether to participate in the National School Lunch Program &#8211; and deal with the various restrictions &#8211; is best left to local school officials.
&#8220;So who gets hurt the worst under this mandate is the middle income; people who don&#8217;t qualify for free and reduced-price lunch are just above it,&#8221; he said. &#8211; Via MSNBC
Of course, Crandall says schools could opt-out and still continue to offer the program&#8230;. just at the district taxpayer&#8217;s expense.
Here&#8217;s the part that really chaps my hide.
Loredo suggested that if lawmakers want to let schools opt out of the USDA program they should at least replace it with some ...]]></description>

When is being pro-life not being pro-life?  When one supports environmental restrictions on the amount of mercury newborns are exposed to.
Like David Barton, who has no academic training as a historian but is the Religious Right’s point person on American history, Calvin Beinser of the Cornwall Alliance has no scientific credentials but has become the go-to person for right-wing activists on questions of science, particularly climate change. While he lacks any credentials what Beisner does have is close ties to organizations financed by the energy industry and a history of attacking scientists, spreading misinformation, and fueling fears that the environmental movement is a pagan plot to destroy Christianity and kill “about 95% of the human race.”
Energy industry apologist Calvin Beisner of the Cornwall Alliance appeared on Janet Parshall’s radio show yesterday to once again do the bidding of polluters. As we’ve reported in The Green Dragon Slayers, Beisner has no scientific credentials but is closely tied to energy companies. During the interview, Beisner directed his animus ...]]></description>

I recently found the website for the John Templeton Foundation and their &#8220;Big Question&#8221; essay series through a friend of mine&#8217;s tweet.  The big question he linked to was &#8220;Does Science Make Belief in God Obsolete?&#8221;
There are a few short essays that run the gamut from yes to no to yes&#8230; if and no&#8230; but.
My answer?  No.
Science is simply the toolbox we use to understand and, in some instances, control the world around us.
It helps us to explain the world, yet it cannot, and did not, create the world.
