Merry Christmas to all my Christian readers
One of my favorite bloggers, Real Live Preacher, tells the Christmas story. Enjoy!Jeff Jarvis on Christmas and the public sphere, with links to those who are arguing with him.
And God rolled His eyes I
And God rolled His eyes II
And God rolled His eyes III
Comments are good too.
Callimachus observes the debate, makes sensible comments, and contributes some local history.
Ann Althouse is also sensible, as usual.
Donald Sensing is loaded for bear.
Eric demonstrates why his blog is called "The Young Curmudgeon."
Michael Totten is also sensible.
Some thoughts on what is lost when individual expression of religion is banished from the public sphere.
Norsemen for Thor are emboldened to launch their campaign.
And I'm off to a Chabad-sponsored Shabbat dinner . . . .
UPDATE: An article on how American Jews interact with Christmas.
(If you wonder how I am spending my Christmas, I attended an enjoyable community Shabbat dinner last night, and spent today customizing Firefox and learning how to manage fonts in Panther, which I just upgraded to when I bought my new computer. I finally abandoned my trusty Netscape 7.1 and began using Firefox. So far the things I dislike about the interface are really bugging me, but it is faster and very customizable.)
UPDATE: The ultimate computer customization usability rant.
Last night I had one of the most frightening dreams a man can have. I dreamt that someone, who hated me very deeply, got me a new computer for Christmas. I woke up screaming, but the dream persisted. The horror! The horror!Related.
. . . This Christmas puppy came loaded with Fritterware. It had Pantless OS, BrokenWindows 2010, HomelessOffice 2004, Internet Deplorer, Fretscape, Opensource Godzilla, iEverthingEverywhere and Pong. The Paperclip was back as the host of a computer training program aptly named RageMaker. When I opened the box in my nightmare my first impulse was to rip open all the other presents in hopes that someone had given me a gun so I could just shoot myself.Nothing is worse than life itself than a fully loaded new computer, and I've been using them for nearly 20 years. Setting up a new computer is like getting ready to French Kiss an elephant; you know it will be a new experience, but you know it wont taste like veal cordon blue.
