Links for the day 05-03-2007

At Lonely Iraq Outpost, GIs Stay as Hope Fades. Depressing article on fights in Iraq.

Thought crimes? Think again. I am truly sorry for this woman's loss. This is one of the bizarre articles I have come across, however. I hoped for a reasoned defense of the hate crimes legislation, but this just does not make sense. Almost all of her defense of the legislation consists of calling its opponents hateful, manipulative liars, which seems even more incongruous in context.

And what does this mean: "Let each of us be mindful that the only crime of thought we can commit this week would be to let these divisive politics get in the way of what is right and what is just. It’s time for all Americans to be able to live their lives free from hate violence."? Is she suggesting that all opponents to her point of view are guilty of thought crimes? Does she think that hate violence (is there any other kind?) will ever be removed? Is she aware of how fascist this sounds?

The overblown charms of Spider-Man 3. Fun review of SP3.

John Franke and the Character of Theology. Paul Helms on John Franke's attempt at non-foundational theology.
