Word cloud: Dobson’s “Letter from 2012″

View Comments

By now I’m sure most everyone has at least heard of Focus on the Family chairperson Dr. James Dobson‘s so-called “Letter from 2012.” You can read the entire diatribe here. To be honest I haven’t read it all — based on what I know of Dobson and his think tank, I consider it to be a colossal waste of time.

I won’t take the time to critque it or add my comment (there are some good ones worth reading here and here).

Being the good Web2.0 junkie that I am, I created a Wordle cloud from the text of the letter.  It is below.  Pretty revealing I think.

Hauerwas Lecture on the End of Religious Pluralism

View Comments

Here is a link to the audio and video of Stanley Hauerwas giving a lecture at Boston College on his position against religious pluralism. Interesting lecture. He approaches it from a different angle that I haven’t ever heard before, at least not in the way he articulates it. I’m not sure I agree with all of his argument, but he definitely offers some good food for thought.
