2010 by dan episcopal news service the 227th annual convention of the episcopal diocese of pennsylvania by a vote of 341 134 has asked bishop charles bennison jr to resign immediately a resolution containing the request also said that bennison does not have the trust of the people and clergy of the diocese of pennsylvania to continue to serve as their bishop bennison made no comment on the resolution after it passed passage of the resolution came hours after bishop paul marshall of the neighboring diocese of bethlehem wrote to bennison and the convention calling on him to resign and suggesting that convention participants urge bennison to leave you need to realize i humbly submit that you are the premier diocese of the episcopal church in this commonwealth and arguably along with connecticut the mother diocese of our church in this country marshall wrote it matters to the rest of us and to the world how you get along it is not a confession of sin to admit that things have not worked out well but it is surely a matter of empirical evidence marshall also suggested that the diocesan leadership examine with humility and contrition the extent to which they have mirrored attitudes and actions that they profess to reject noting that the concept of systemic change is harder to assess than that of mere personnel change episcopal life online diocesan digest posted in

without god do watch the video it is quite good i have a great deal of respect for christopher even though i pretty much disagree with most of what he has to say brothers christopher and peter hitchens squared off tuesday in a debate over whether civilization can survive without god christopher the older of the two is a renowned atheist thinker and author peter the lesser known of the two is a practicing christian and also a well regarded author the two hitchens brothers debate if civilization can survive without god shroud of turin blog posted in noted with interest 2 comments junk science warning new shroud of turin 3d web site posted on october 12 2010 by dan we are referring here to some 3d work done on the shroud of turin images that is dubious unfortunately it is being widely displayed in some churches the pastor of a large parish in new orleans wrote to me by email i think this new 3d image is the most convincing scientific evidence yet for arguing that the shroud is authentic i strongly disagree the pastor is referring to the red cyan anaglyph image of the shroud that you can see only with red and cyan 3d glasses personally i feel that this is a work of art an artist s impression of what jesus may have looked like expressed in 3d it doesn t prove anything any more than the animated 3d movie barbie and the magic of pegasus proves that horses can fly don t get me wrong there is 3d data in the shroud s images it is the most important quality for knowing that these are not images formed by reflected light as a painter would envision or a camera would capture a human form the 3d data is a quality that must be accounted for in any hypothesis attempting to explain how the images were formed be it miraculously naturally by fakery or even as honest art indeed this quality treated scientifically without various forms of electronic manipulation sooner or later may suggest how the images were formed troubled by the new shroud of turin 3d web site

martin peretz yom kippur atonement in the new republic posted on september 18 2010 by dan remember in early september when marty peretz the publisher of the new republic wrote but frankly muslim life is cheap most notably to muslims and among those muslims led by the imam rauf there is hardly one who has raised a fuss about the routine and random bloodshed that defines their brotherhood so yes i wonder whether i need honor these people and pretend that they are worthy of the privileges of the first amendment which i have in my gut the sense that they will abuse now yesterday on the eve of yom kippur this from him this is the eve of yom kippur or the day of atonement introspection is the order of the day the jewish tradition divides sin into two categories sins against god and sins against man and insists that god can forgive the former but not the latter because only the sinned against have the power to absolve the sin this is why the asking of forgiveness is an act of supreme importance in this season i myself have much to ask forgiveness for and much of this asking will be done in private as is appropriate but there are sins that are committed in public and in this past year i have publicly committed the sin of wild and wounding language especially hurtful to our muslim brothers and sisters i do not console myself that many other americans at this moment are committing the same transgressions against others i allowed emotion to run way ahead of reason and feelings to trample arguments for this i am sorry may all who fast tonight and tomorrow have as americans jews say an easy fast but not too easy because the contemplation of one s flaws and culpabilities is a difficult task and i wish us all luck with it almost all comments to the latest words from peretz on the new republic site are favorable this one caught my attention because it is the way i feel thank you for posting an unambiguous statement of regret i was looking for the subscription info so i could cancel my subscription when i saw this post so very glad that i now feel comfortable continuing my subscription read all the comments here martin peretz apologies for the sin of wounding language the new republic posted in general noted with interest leave a comment feisal abdul rauf s repellent record as a property developer posted on september 17 2010 by dan that is the

with interest leave a comment atheist richard dawkins is incandescent with rage at pope for tying godless and nazis however posted on september 17 2010 by dan cathy lynn grossman at usa today tells us britain s best known atheist richard dawkins is sputtering mad over pope benedict s equating the godless to potential nazis in his speech to queen elizabeth when the pontiff arrived yesterday for his four day visit to scotland and england benedict hit his standard theme of warning against secularism and backed it up by praising the way britain fought nazi tyranny that wished to eradicate god from society despicable outrage dawkins howled describing himself as incandescent with rage as he called for a letter writing campaign against the pope to the papers and british broadcasting company but over at the guardian andrew brown says dawkins should chill out over this attack on atheist extremism brown writes he didn t mean us he didn t even mean richard dawkins he was talking about the nazis who he said wished to eradicate god from society and denied our common humanity to many especially the jews who were thought unfit to live and if this isn t enough tension for day two of the papal visit let s see what comes from the meeting between benedict and rowan williams archbishop of canterbury and head of the worldwide anglican communion whole article atheist dawkins rages at pope tying godless nazis faith reason posted in general noted with interest 1 comment my my says the trentonian about high minded progressives posted on september 17 2010 by dan someone at the trentonian presumably the editor doesn t like liberals or progressives but the writer makes an important point that will resonate among both supporters and opponents of the park51 cordoba mosque near ground zero community center project and yes we should say alleged slumlord for now it turns out according to union city municipal officials and to tenants in a position to know that ground zero imam feisal abdul rauf is a slumlord local officials are asking a court to appoint a custodial receivership for the imam s apartment building which allegedly is rife with ignored health and safety violations my my doesn t this put our high minded progressives in a pickle they ve been supporting the imam against what they describe as a tidal wave of islamophobia and how could they not given his inclination to fault america as the major source of all the world s problems but do our high minded progressives formerly known as knee jerk liberals go on supporting the imam even if he s shudder a slumlord it is even a problem for conservative supporters and liberal opponents yes there are some source cp from god christ questions faith posted in general leave a comment a student wonders why we hate in the

americans and pretend they are worthy of the privileges of the first amendment which i have in my gut the sense that they will abuse here i quote martin peretz editor in chief of the new republic unjustly by citing a sentence out of context for which he has apologized then again an unusually animated nick kristof did worse calling peretz s blog post and all anti park51 activists venomous and
