May 7 Daniel Francis commented on NPR's Ari Shapiro Is Coming to Seattle to Ask Me Questions About American Savage.

Ari Shapiro looks a LOT hotter than I thought he did..........

May 7 Daniel Francis commented on John Grant Rules My Eardrums Right Now.

I LOVE Queen of Denmark.
But I don't like the second album as much.
Still, a good musician overall.

Apr 26 Daniel Francis commented on State Senator Mike Hewitt's Office Backpedals on Gay Farming, Calls Earlier Conversation "Poorly Handled".

WOW!
You really called from a different area code and got an answer?
Well, well, well.

Apr 18 Daniel Francis commented on Obama Is Pissed, Calls Today a "Shameful Day for Washington".

Proud of the President.
Time to make those folk who voted against it pay.

Apr 17 Daniel Francis commented on The Senate Fails to Break Filibuster as Background Check Bill Dies.

My soul aches on this, it really does.
There is absolutely no illusion in my mind that the Republican party has to be beaten completely for the American people to make any progress, or even be heard in this country.
I would say more about the weak kneed, yellow-bellied democrats who sponsored this bill that had absolutely no way to be enforced, but I thought that their wouldn't even be 50+ Dems.
So I'm proud Dems suck slightly less than I thought they would.

This experiment in bipartisanship is over.............

Apr 15 Daniel Francis commented on Explosions at the Boston Marathon.

A sad day. I'll pray for the families.
To all of you blaming Muslims, note that they are not the only folk in the world who have ever planted a bomb somewhere.
We'll get the facts when we get them.
No need to make unnecessary fools of ourselves..............

Apr 7 Daniel Francis commented on Slog Bible Study: Job 9:23.

This text, of course, is Job complaining about God. It's texts like this however that make the book such an interesting read. Job's defiance, his refusal to admit that he is suffering because of something he did (which was a common view about suffering), and his insistence on justice from God are inspiring.
It gives validation to all people who seek to make change in the moral perceptions of their communities.

Apr 1 Daniel Francis commented on John Corvino: Love the Sinner, Hate the Sin.

Watched and liked ALL the new videos and just got the book in the mail.
John Corvino, my favorite living, gay, secular humanist (sorry Dan, you're #2).

Mar 25 Daniel Francis commented on SL Letter of the Day: Closed Door Etiquette.

Somehow, the world makes sense now...........

Mar 23 Daniel Francis commented on Pope Francis Is Upset About the "Spiritual Poverty" of Wealthy Nations.

I think The Pope was right generally in that speech. There is a spiritual poverty in the west. We DO need to live by truth and not relativity. And truth IS essential to peace. The problem of course is that the church in general, and Catholicism in particular, is as great a source of the relativistic thinking that leads to spiritual poverty, as any of the usual suspects.
So a good, if potentially hypocritical speech.
