Saturday, January 2, 2010. Here I go again. Of mine invited me to join in an on-line review and discussion of Charles Taylor's. This book became a little more difficult to source than I first thought. Amazon.ca had only 4 copies left before Christmas, and I was too late to beat the Christmas backlog of orders and the overloaded mail system. And, given the desire to support independent book stores, I inquired at Pages. Across town to the south end Chapters. Is the notion of a secular society a myth? How d...

Monday, February 26, 2007. I made an interesting discovery today while posting comments at the Globe and Mail. The article. Discussed the upcoming documentary on the purported discovery of Jesus' tomb in Jerusalem. Was semi-moderated, meaning that an automatic filter is used to restrict postings. One of my posts. Was continually rejected, until another member of the conversation pointed out in a post. Did the Globe and Mail hire the same censor. As the airline industry? Benjamin van den Berg.

Sunday, February 7, 2010. A Secular Age - The Bulwarks of Belief (7-9). By the fifteenth century, Europe had emerged from the Age of Calamity. As referenced by one of my history books), or an age of anxiety as described by Charles Taylor (p.88). In this new era comes two major societal transformations: the Renaissance. On page 75, Taylor turns his attention to the impact of one particular Protestant theology, Calvanism. Could they be the Emergents of their day? But I digress . One cannot dismiss it either.

April 24th, 2008. My doctor's trying to reschedule my c-section for later next week, if I don't go into labour on my own. There's no available appointments right now, which is a little worrisome, but I'm sure it will all work out. On Monday I have another prenatal appointment and something called a Non Stress Test. I'll be 41 weeks at that point. Comments: Leave a comment. 2008-04-24 08:51 pm (UTC). We're anxiously waiting for the good news! Come on, baby! 2008-04-25 06:27 pm (UTC). Sorry about your cold...

August 3rd, 2008. We've been talking about this for a while, but last week our attempt to get one was stymied by getting to the Apple store too late due to Mr. E's music class. By too late, I mean before noon on a Saturday. But this morning,. Did not opt for the iPhone, as he's planning to get an Android-based smart phone whenever they finally come out. Here's a cute conversation I had with Mr. E. this morning after he discovered Daddy was not at home:. Me: Daddy went out. MrE: (To) Buy more nectarines?

Blah: Danish Riots
http://neuroticburritos.blogspot.com/2007/03/danish-riots.html
Monday, March 5, 2007. Here are my 30 second thoughts on the subject of the recent riots in Denmark. Sparked by the eviction of squatters from an abandoned building in Copenhagen, the rioting has largely been carried out by "leftist youth" (muh? As the building was used as a makeshift youth center and was a gathering place for anarchists, punk rockers, and left-wing groups. It was purchased by a Christian congregation 6 years ago, and was demolished today. Benjamin van den Berg. Benjamin van den Berg.
