The ‘biblical view’ that’s younger than the Happy... →
In 1979, McDonald’s introduced the Happy Meal.
Sometime after that, it was decided that the Bible teaches that human life begins at conception.
Ask any American evangelical, today, what the Bible says about abortion and they will insist that this is what it says. (Many don’t actually believe this, but they know it is the only answer that won’t get them in trouble.) They’ll be a little fuzzy on...

Californication dialogue recap
You know... I often wonder which one of the writers is the one that is working through his issues by writing stuff like this. . . ..
k: but i don't want you to be lonely.
h: oh, pshaw, i ain't lonely.
k: yes you are. yes, you are! you're like this little boy, lost, who, kind of...it didn't work out between us and you're still pouting. you've picked up your ball and you've run home and you're never, ever gonna play with anyone else again.
she's right, you're wonderful. you are. and when women get to know you, of course they want more. but it's kind of cruel to let them think that they can have it when really...it's just no more than a hologram.
h: contrary to popular belief, i'm not out there trying to hurt anyone.
k: i know. but -- what do you think becca's suffering from right now? some guy, good or bad, he's charmed his way into her heart, and obviously she wants more.
h: you're trying to tell me that i've given her some horrible...daddy complex?
k: no. don't worry about her. i'm talking about you. worry about yourself. 'cause if really, if all your life is, is a series of fuckin' meaningless...flings...and some idealized version of our love story... then i'm really sad for you. because i know what you're capable of.
h: yeah? well, what if you're wrong? what if this is it for me? what if i'm just destined to sit around and wait for the band to get back together?
k: you'll be waiting on a miracle.

“Prisons vs. Public Schools”
OurTime’s opinion:
America’s priorities are backwards. We’re spending tons of money scooping up young people and throwing them in jail, instead of trying to solve problems by having a better education system and offering better social services. The state and federal…

The TRUTH about Ron Paul's Young Voters →
I’ve been reading several stories about Ron Paul following the the successes he’s had in the Iowa Caucus and the New Hampshire Primary with young voters. Many of these stories speculate that this somehow speaks to the “message” of the Paul campaign or that Paul’s issues are the issues of young voters this election. While some of these assumptions are partly ...
