I’ve been a fan of Scott Adams for a long time. He’s the creator of Dilbert. Not only does he draw one of the funniest comic strips ever, but he also finds time (daily) to blog. On top of that, he responds to emails personally. Wow. Considering that many of his blog entries will have 300+ comments, that’s amazing.

N-E-WHO, Scott has been blogging in recent days about religion. In today’s entry, he asks how people know which prophets are legitimate and which ones are looney tunes. I don’t think Scott claims any particular faith, but his blog has provoked some amazing, fresh, and respectful dialogue.

Hats off to Scott, for presenting such honest questions on his blog and being willing to provide a forum for many different view points to interact. The Truth is out there…

BTW… there’s a great interview on Souldish of the Ebay Atheist...

There’s no surprises here for me, but if you’ll stop by this site, you can take a very brief quiz that purports to be able to classify your political leaning. I’d be interested in knowing what you all are. Post a comment to let me know!

Here’s mine:


CONSERVATIVES tend to favor economic freedom, but frequently support laws to restrict personal behavior that violates “traditional values.” They oppose excessive government control of business,
while endorsing government action to defend morality and the traditional family structure. Conservatives usually support a strong military, oppose bureaucracy and high taxes, favor a free-market economy, and endorse strong law enforcement.

Stop by Tom’s blog and read this touching account of a soldier’s return from Iraq. Tom was a student at UAM when I was there as the BCM Director. Thanks to Brandon, for hooking me up with Tom’s blog!

Hop on over to Justin’s blog and read about the avowed atheist on Ebay who auctioned off his willingness to attend church… It’s an amazing story that’s getting national media attention.
