Naomi Wolf - "The End of America"

Go watch Naomi Wolf Celebrated Author of "The End of America". Scary story about the history of how fascism began in democracies in history, identifies the specific steps, and you'll recognize, from Nazi Germany to Pinochet's Chile. Then ties that together with what is happening today in America. I'm certainly going to be buying the book.
Conservatives are working to stop these losses via the American Freedom Agenda.
Liberals (yes, I'm proud of the word) urge the same goals at the American Freedom Campaign.

Green Room Seattle

Saturday, I attended a Willow Creek Worship Arts Green Room event at Timberlake Community near Seattle. It was such an amazing day. I find myself telling everyone about it, so... to ease how many times I send out all these links

Sudden Discoveries Takes Years of Hard Work

Eureka! It Really Takes Years of Hard Work - New York Times:
"WE’VE all heard the tales of the apple falling on Newton’s head and Archimedes leaping naked from his bath shrieking “Eureka!” Many of us have even heard that eBay was created by a guy who realized that he could help his fianc�e sell Pez dispensers online.


The fact that all three of these epiphany stories are pure fiction stops us short. As humans, we want to believe that creativity and innovation come in flashes of pure brilliance, with great thunderclaps and echoing ahas. Innovators and other creative types, we believe, stand apart from the crowd, wielding secrets and magical talents beyond the rest of us."

Would anyone notice

My great friend Kenton Borror said something yesterday that i found deeply profound:
if all the world were deaf, words were no differentiator, would the world know who the Christians are?
Cut out all our blathering on and on about theology and spiritual issues, distinctions and beliefs. Would they know just by our actions and behavior?

Everywhere but Here

Found in Translation

Wow. I fear my government. Amazing, isn't it, that something happening here, an FBI translator who uncovers nuclear misbehavior in the US Government, would get ZERO coverage in the States, but plenty overseas. Scary.
