		<description><![CDATA[This post contains a few brief excerpts from chapter 6 of Dallas Willard's book, <em>The Spirit of the Disciplines</em>, with a little commentary about my own experiences. The chapter is concerned with showing the folly in equating the physical body with something evil; then Willard begins to explain the role of the physical body in spiritual life.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In this post I include a lengthy quote from Dallas Willard about how in order to understand Salvation, we need to understand the nature of what is being saved. Then I rant for a while about why I think 'The Spirit of the Disciplines' is one of the greatest books ever written and why today's Christians ought to read it carefully and immediately, lest I pitch a fit. This will be the first in probably a few posts about this book as I re-read it. And boy, do I need to read this book again and start living accordingly.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA["Ida", the 47-million year old fossil is said to be "re-writing our history" .. but what do they mean by "re-writing", given that evolution has been sold as a proven fact for years? The Discovery Channel is at it again, mimicking their widely panned 'Tomb of Jesus' shenanigans by hyping this latest 'discovery' as important as the Kennedy assassination or landing on the moon. Full film in production, elaborate website, and professional branding and media tour commences today. Forget peer-reviewed research, forget measured and thoughtful discussion, IN WITH THE CAMERAS. Where's James Cameron?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Why does the right embrace figures like Miss California as some kind of spokesperson? Isn't this the wrong hill to fight and die on? Aren't there bigger battles out there? Everybody knows her answer to the gay marriage questions was essentially what our President has said. Why would we even lower ourselves to converse, even indirectly, with someone as pathetic as Perez Hilton? Included in this post is a video clip of John Stewart humorously and elegantly commenting on the hypocrisy on all sides here.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Whether or not water-boarding is torture, and whether or not those who authorized, carried out, and/or knew about water-boarding and other interrogation techniques used since 9/11 has been a hot topic in the last few months. However, as a Christian concerned about the church's response to these questions, my instinct is to push the conversation back a bit further and just clarify the important questions regarding torture in general.]]></description>
