On Fri\u00addays I share articles\/resources about broad cul\u00adtur\u00adal, soci\u00adetal and the\u00ado\u00adlog\u00adi\u00adcal issues. Be sure to see the expla\u00adna\u00adtion and dis\u00adclaimers at the bot\u00adtom.<\/p>\n

Things Glen Found Interesting<\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. The health effects of reli\u00adgious ser\u00advice atten\u00addance<\/a> (red\u00addit AMA): the researcher, Tyler Van\u00adder\u00adWeele, is a Har\u00advard pro\u00adfes\u00adsor and a believ\u00ader. You can see his Ver\u00adi\u00adtas talks here<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  2. If you\u2019re not a sports per\u00adson, you may not know that the San Fran\u00adci\u00adc\u00adso 49\u2019s quar\u00adter\u00adback recent\u00adly refused to stand for the nation\u00adal anthem because Amer\u00adi\u00adca is unjust. Con\u00adtro\u00adver\u00adsy ensued. Two alum\u00adni shared rel\u00ade\u00advant arti\u00adcles: <\/span>Col\u00adin Kaeper\u00adnick Is Righter Than You Know: The Nation\u00adal Anthem Is a Cel\u00ade\u00adbra\u00adtion of Slav\u00adery<\/span><\/a> and the salti\u00ader <\/span>Why I\u2019ll Nev\u00ader Stand Again For \u2018The Star-Span\u00adgled Ban\u00adner\u2019<\/a>. Doug Wil\u00adson offered good insights at The Seat\u00aded Col\u00adin Kaeper\u00adnick<\/a>. <\/span>See also Be Use\u00adful (A Post About Col\u00adin Kaepernik)<\/a> by Scott Adams and Insult\u00ading Col\u00adin Kaeper\u00adnick Says More About Our Patri\u00ado\u00adtism Than His<\/a> by Kareem Abdul-Jab\u00adbar. For a con\u00adtrary view, see Col\u00adin Kaeper\u00adnick, Meet Hen\u00adry John\u00adson<\/a> (David French, Nation\u00adal Review).<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Framed<\/span><\/a>. (Christo\u00adpher Gof\u00adfard, LA Times): this is one of the cra\u00adzi\u00adest things I have read all year. High\u00adly rec\u00adom\u00admend\u00aded. Heads up: there is a Stan\u00adford con\u00adnec\u00adtion in the sto\u00adry and it is not a pos\u00adi\u00adtive one.<\/li>\n
  4. What sci\u00adence real\u00adly has to say about sex\u00adu\u00adal\u00adi\u00adty and gen\u00adder<\/a> (Joe Carter, ERLC): this is a read\u00adable sum\u00adma\u00adry of a 144 page PDF<\/a> writ\u00adten by Paul McHugh (a psy\u00adchi\u00ada\u00adtrist at Johns Hop\u00adkins) and Lawrence May\u00ader (an bio\u00adsta\u00adtis\u00adti\u00adcian at Ari\u00adzona State). From the orig\u00adi\u00adnal arti\u00adcle: \u201cSex\u00adu\u00adal ori\u00aden\u00adta\u00adtion and gen\u00adder iden\u00adti\u00adty resist expla\u00adna\u00adtion by sim\u00adple the\u00ado\u00adries. There is a large gap between the cer\u00adtain\u00adty with which beliefs are held about these mat\u00adters and what a sober assess\u00adment of the sci\u00adence reveals.\u201d<\/li>\n
  5. How The Catholic Church Doc\u00adu\u00adment\u00aded Moth\u00ader Tere\u00adsa\u2019s 2 Mir\u00ada\u00adcles<\/a> (Tom Gjel\u00adten, NPR): \u201cThe group rea\u00adsoned that if Duf\u00adfin, as an athe\u00adist, found there was no sci\u00aden\u00adtif\u00adic rea\u00adson the woman should have recov\u00adered, who could doubt it was a mir\u00ada\u00adcle? In fact, after her inves\u00adti\u00adga\u00adtion of the wom\u00adan\u2019s recov\u00adery, Duf\u00adfin agreed that the wom\u00adan\u2019s heal\u00ading was \u2014 for lack of a bet\u00adter word \u2014 mirac\u00adu\u00adlous.\u201d The Pope and I dis\u00adagree about a lot of things (includ\u00ading saints), but I have long been impressed with the way the Catholic Church crit\u00adi\u00adcal\u00adly eval\u00adu\u00adates mir\u00ada\u00adcles.<\/li>\n
  6. FBI Says For\u00adeign Hack\u00aders Pen\u00ade\u00adtrat\u00aded State Elec\u00adtion Sys\u00adtems<\/a> (Michael Isikoff, Yahoo News): I am con\u00advinced we are way more vul\u00adner\u00ada\u00adble on this front than most peo\u00adple know.<\/li>\n
  7. The Sneaky Pro\u00adgram To Spy On Bal\u00adti\u00admore From Above<\/a> (Conor Frieder\u00addorf, The Atlantic): \u201cIn real\u00adi\u00adty, unlike in 1984, Big Broth\u00ader may watch for awhile with\u00adout reveal\u00ading that there is a Big Broth\u00ader.\u201d<\/li>\n
  8. Wait\u00ading To Die<\/a> (Michael Pat\u00adton): well worth your time.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
