History: They’re digging at stonehenge again (and why can I net help thinking of the Spinal Tap song)

I don’t know if this guy was a Christian, but reading his story and remembering my Bible, I’m feeling a little convicted.
“You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.’ But I say to you, Do not resist the one who is evil. But if anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also. And if anyone would sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as well. ” Jesus, as recorded in Matthew 5: 38-40
“The Christian faith has not been tried and found wanting, it has been found difficult and left untried” – G.K. Chesterton
Environmentalism?: Seems the circus around the seal hunt is beginning again.
History of the Church of England: A la Eddie Izzard. Very irreverent… but funny.

Christian Progressivism: John Stackhouse wonders at the integrity of people who disagree with the doctrinal statements of a Church and yet draw salaries from it.
Islam: Geert Wilders finally releases his openly anti-Islamic film.

Okay, for some reason, the graphic I have at the top of my post “Why do People Go To Hell” has been taken up by the image search at google. The result is that my website has been getting copious amounts of hits recently (at least for me). This is a weird feeling, as the post in question is one of my least favorite, and now I suddenly have some people happening by my site (and me not having written anything recently).
Unfortunately, this also makes for the reason that I set my comments to “moderate” as I have recently been getting many comments seemingly designed to vent people’s frustration with my belief structure, with very little in the way of actual reasoned response. I’ve been allowing some, but from now on I’ll delete unless there’s some kind of reasoning behind the statements.
I’ll also probably delete the ones made up almost entirely of swearing.
