First Parish Gorham

I found a wonderful blog today, or at least someone I knew did.
Its called First Parish Gorham, and is the blog of Reverend David Butler, who says of himself:
"I am a non-traditional minister with a passion for social justice, the pursuit of truth and peace, and openness to other points of view (as long as they are open views as well). I am also an actor, writer, and playwright."
One post I really liked, Agnostic Christianity. Go read it.
While you're at it, go visit Senator Olympia Snowe's page. I'm writing a report about her and all her work with bipartisan reform.
Also visit Tamora Peirce's blog; especially if you liked the Girls Read Comics links.

Quotes pulled from various sources:

• "Faith is the relationship we have with whatever it is that we consider truly transcendent." -Reverend David Butler
• “Just because we have different views, that doesn't mean that we lack principles.” -Senator Olympia Snowe
• "Thou art God" -Stranger in a Strange Land; Robert Heinlein

Girls Read Comics

And now for some links to the wonderful world of Girls Read Comics:

Bingo: The Callers Include You

Myth Is A Metaphor

Science Heroism

A Distinct Lack of Shouting

I Am Not Doing This Twice

Read these and then read all the rest.

Comics

In light of the fact that I failed horribly at trying to promote awareness of sexism and misogyny in comics at school, I provide these links to you:

The ladies (and men) there have done a wonderful job with the topics mentioned above and I will let them do the talking.

However, this does not stop me from touching on the same topics, or indeed writing whole posts about it.
