Here is some news that caught my attention this afternoon:

  • Jesus is coming on 21 May 2011. This has to be the news of the millennium.
  • Anti-Semitic teachers torment Canada. Now, I know that some readers will say that it is not anti-Semitic to criticise Israel. True, but to only bash Israel and systematically ignore the Palestinian terrorism that makes cause the tension is an expression of anti-Semitism. It’s like always talking about what the black boy was fighting in the schoolyard and not mentioning that the white boy hit him on the head several times. If you do this once and it could be written off as a mistake, if you do it over and over and it is most certainly racism.
  • Uneven rights for gay Europeans. Some European countries are near perfect while others are increasingly homophobic, a new reports from the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights reports.
  • The euro crisis. Greece, Ireland, Portugal, Spain, Italy, Belgium. Where will it end?
  • European Enlightenment art to Beijing. I hope the ideas will rub off.
  • AIDS concerns us all. Julie Rhoad has written an article about HIV and what it has done to us.
  • Mercury turns birds gay. I wonder what chemical element will do birds straight.
