Actor Rainn Wilson asks, on his blog, "Can Justice Be Spiritual?"

What do you think?

Ran accross this piece from U2 front-man, Bono, in which he reflects on the "Bloody Sunday" massacre in Ireland in 1972 and contrasts it with the recent apology, for the massacre, by the British Prime Minister a few days ago.  Best part was the concluding paragraph:

In fact, it can be that quick everywhere. If there are any lessons for the world from this piece of Irish history ... for Baghdad ... for Kandahar ... it’s this: things are quick to change for the worse and slow to change for the better, but they can. They really can. It takes years of false starts, heartbreaks and backslides and, most tragically, more killings. But visionaries and risk-takers and, let’s just say it, heroes on all sides can bring us back to the point where change becomes not only possible again, but inevitable.

Claremont has posted a great FAQ about the new interfaith university project. It addresses many of the misconceptions about the new project. One of those misconceptions is:

Some talk show hosts and bloggers have suggested that the $10 million seed money that Claremont received from its United Methodist board member David Lincoln and his wife Joan, was actually received from “Wahabist Muslim fanatics” who are trying to “flip” the seminary into a Muslim extremist organization. Where did this  rumor come from?

We have no idea.

Wow.  As my sister-in-law, Rebecca, said when I read the above quote to her, "People are whack-a-mole."
