Lyrical Perspectives: Religion
The followup on (obviously) the first part. This time around, it’s lyrics with some religious kind of thought happening. And they say God is dead. Pah!
Girls

Muahaha! Now I’ve got everyone all eagerly anticipating what I’m going to say (don’t deny it. I’ve seen the comment counts on the other relationship posts). Well, sorry to disappoint, but this is *not* a post about romance. This is about friendship, and how come I’m just chillin’.
Lyrical Perspectives: Life
A collection of lyrical excerpts that I find interesting. Some because they have some interesting ways of looking at life, some because they made me think differently, and some ‘cos they’re just plain funny. The opinions and feelings expressed below quite probably do not reflect mine. (Except for that Rage quote. I’m totally down wit dat.)

Heavier Things (It’s a review)

The other day I bought John Mayer’s Heavier Things. And honestly, the album artwork by itself is worth the price (well, the $7 I got it for anyway).
Theology Professor ordered out of U.S.
In
Courtesy of Greenflame (the blog of one of my lecturers from last semester), and Christianity Today comes this article about a Professor at Fuller Theological Seminary being ordered to leave the U.S..
It’s pretty scary; the U.S. has redefined (for visa purposes at least), the term “religious professional.â€? It now means someone working in an “approved seminary,â€? which means tied to a specific, single denomination. This bodes badly, considering the large number of inter-denominational seminaries in the States, and how important many of them are to worldwide theology. It looks like a number of other widely-respected theologians can expect to be kicked out too—so much for religious freedom.
