A couple of fairly goofy, interesting things out there.

Wacky Ministers Invade Public Schools to Rid World of Gays: You gotta give it to the religious right, they truly believe no place is beyond their reach. There is legislation up for passage in the upcoming Southern Baptists Convention for churches to "investigate" the local gay activities in their school districts. [WorldNet]

Now see, I know that the left has been told to quit making fun of these people and try to start engaging them. See I disagree, those people in that story need to be made fun of and I don't care how many votes it might cost someone, the message has to be clear -- I'm NOT involved with those assholes.

And to think, it's not as if high school wasn't tough enough for kids. Between the demands on wearing the right clothes and hooking up with the right cheerleader, high schoolers have enough problems without the church being involved. So I hope baptist ministers will ignore this and concentrate on the things they do well -- eating and sweating.

Bombs? What Bombs: I'm note really sure what to think of John Tierney yet. I find him to be fairly provocative but I'm not sure what happened to him this week. He is saying that the media should start ignoring bombing attacks and other crimes because it's not a true reflection of what's really going on [NYT].

Huh?. Bomb attacks aren't a true reflection of what's going on in Iraq? Even worse he seems to support a form of government censorship over these things. I really have no clue where he's going with this. Unless he really believes that war crimes are media sensationalism and that's a scary thought.
