Monday a week or so ago, the Gazette published an Associated Press article lamenting that many ordinary Muslims, calling themselves ordinary Americans, apparently do not have the confidence of the rest of us. Perhaps they don't realize that most of us common Americans do not share their tolerance of blowing up each other and we infidels as a way of evangelizing.
And then today, the following Saturday, everyone's favorite Rocky professor reviewed all the misunderstandings that us ordinary non-Muslims have about the "religion of peace." I wonder if she has her columns on Islam vetted by someone who reads Arabic? Or is there a Gazette editor who makes sure that only the politically correct terms and definitions appear in the paper?
This is a small experiment in the blogosphere. "If you have no interest in what it's like to grow old, what follows is not for you. However, if it's going to happen to you, and the outcome is ultimately going to be negative, then finding a way to make the process as bearable, even as enjoyable as possible, might be worth a little attention."—from John Jerome's On Turning Sixty-Five

“In beholding old stones we may feel our anxieties about our achievements–and lack of them–slacken . . . Vast landscapes [and seascapes] can have an anxiety–reducing effect similar to ruins, for they are the representatives of infinite space, as ruins are the representatives of infinite time, against which our weak, short-lived bodies seem no less inconsequential than those of moths or spiders.”—Alain de Botton in Status Anxiety
