Again -- Is Wikipedia Controlling References to Predominantly Western Sources?

Sun, 20 Apr 2008 12:58:44 PDT
I had a fair share of tough times before my wikipedia article on Social Network Aggregation got published. Initially the wikipedia article was put on notice for deletion several times and I had to really really push to keep it alive! I started this article by contributing my own blog content. It has now been expanded and enlarged while my original content and references have mostly been deleted. Arguably I am not an authority or important contributor to the subject in the view of powers that ho

Reaching Out — Leaving Something Behind

Sun, 20 Apr 2008 14:52:32 PDT
And he Jesus] took the children in his arms, put his hands on them and blessed them. Mark 10:16 (NIV) Like so many, many MANY young adults today I grew up going to church every week, following the example of my parents. When I reached college and was able to freely make a decision to stay connected or not I chose not. I had no personal knowledge or relationship with God so making a weekly pilgrimage to a church was not a high priority. Continue reading at Jody Along the Path.

Reflections on the Pope’s Visit

Sun, 20 Apr 2008 11:48:46 PDT
As we draw near to the end of the first visit of Pope Benedict XVI to the United States, we can begin to reflect on the themes he addressed. My reflections are rooted in my own perspective as a Seventh-day Adventist pastor who, nonetheless, spent many years as a member and a lay leader within the Catholic Church. As I reflect on the pope’s remarks, I see much that is positive, from which we can learn, as well as areas for caution and concern. Throughout his visit, starting with his remarks at

Cons: RCMP Raid Was a 'Publicity Stunt'

Wed, 16 Apr 2008 13:10:43 PDT
Pass the tissues. Oh how I weep for those poor victims of the RCMP raid of the Cons' headquarters. Not. The tories are scrambling to paint themselves as being oppressed after yesterday's raid (which continues today). The problem is that they appointed the two Elections Canada officials they're now suing and that they applaud the RCMP (even protecting Zaccardelli to the bitter end) except when they're the targets of a legally-sanctioned warrant. And now, they're also trying to implicate the Li
