Today's Cultural Warfare Update

In the wake of another study showing a possible biological component to homosexuality, FotF pushes a book they sell mostly saying "does not!!!!!";

FotF action item / news article about Senator Lindsey Graham's attempt to put together a filibuster-rules-change compromise - tells everyone in the country to contact all moderate Republicans against it;

Action item to congratulate President Bush for criticising South Korean stem-cell research efforts;

Focus on the Family main radio broadcast is on the filibuster rules change - I may transcribe and may not;

Main radio broadcast page contains a link to an action item calling for calls to all moderate Republicans against any compromise effort on Senate filibuster rules changes;

CWA propaganda article supporting Senate filibuster rules - I can't call it news, it's just kind of weird, rambly commentary;

CWA article against embryonic stem-cell research, attacking Republican Rep. Mike Castle (Delaware) for expanding funding;

James Watt comes out of the woodwork to write an op-ed in the Washington Post condemning the "Religious Left";

American Psychological Association recommends endorsing marriage rights for same-sex partners;

Long article by the author of "Homosexuality: A Freedom Too Far" against the APA and other psychiatric organisations which oppose "conversion therapy," and keeps re-fighting the 1960s.

Very informal

I thought these wildflowers by the road were pretty. Nothing formal, just volunteers growing on their own under a hedgerow.



Didn't ride my bike today, had to carry too much cargo, so drove. I hate that.

Miles today: 0.4
Miles out of Hobbiton: 142.7
Miles to Rivendell: 315.3

I'd probably write more, but I'm too sleepy. G'night!
