The Power of Dreams

Myth and religion are always intertwined, never more so than the Islamic claim to Jerusalem.

Interesting read.

Australia Day

Happy Australia Day!

Needless to say, it's a good time to drink beer and eat the barbecued flesh of dead animals.

Can't Make a Chinese Omlette without Breaking a Few Eggs...

The most disgusting piece of mass murderer-apologetics seen yet in the Guardian is here.

You know, it is possible to modernise without killing tens of millions of people.

Still here.

Yeah, I'm still alive....now officially in my mid-twenties. Yuck.

On a more positive note, I saw Tenacious D in Sydney on Tuesday night, and they most certainly did rock.

Mr Mahathir has long been a critic of Western democracies, which he says offer too much freedom, including allowing homosexuality and same-sex marriages.

Interesting note: Homophobes often have repressed homosexual desires of their own, "Dr" Mahathir.

Not just a fast bowler

Nosireee....

Nothing in life became him so much as the manner in which he left it?

I'm not annoyed that Saddam's dead. Good riddance.

I am, however, highly concerned about the manner in which he left it.

Christopher Hitchens explains why.

Simple explanation:

Executioners cheering al'Sadr = Bad News

On a similar note, this girl was either an delusional idiot, heavily brainwashed, or possibly both.

UPDATE: Charles Krauthammer agrees with me.

Truly incredible. The world's greatest living mass-murderer and this is the way they chose to get rid of him?
