Vox Apologia II: Digital Salt

RazorsKiss has posted the results of the second Vox Apologia on the subject of “Digital Salt”. I was going to post a list of personal favorites, but they’re all so good that I couldn’t decide on just a few. Just go read them all.

Top Ten Reasons to Read Christian History

The archives of Christianity Today contain this excellent article on why it is critical for everyone to understand not just history, but also the Christian aspects of history.

Senator Rick Santorum on Evolution

Pennsylvania’s junior Senator, Rick Santorum, has written a very interesting article on the teaching of evolution in schools.

Charles Darwin wrote about his theory of evolution at a time when evidence was weak. In recent years, evidence of the complex circuits, miniature machines, sophisticated feedback loops, and digital information inside the cell has enabled scientists to poke holes in the principle evidence used to support evolution and therefore, more and more respected biologists are entering the debate as to the plausibility of evolution.

For these reasons, Darwin’s theory of evolution should not be taught as absolute fact in the science classroom. Instead, it should be taught as the leading and dominant scientific theory explaining the origin of species, but also as a theory subject to significant limitations, failed predictions and important criticisms.

More on Specter’s Schenanigans

According to this article, Senator Rick Santorum is now facing some fallout due to his support of Senator Spector instead of Representative Toomey in the Pennsylvania primaries. Now that Specter is once again showing his true (liberal) colors, conservatives are dissatisfied with Santorum’s support for a man who already had history of undermining conservative agendas and pushing liberal and statist agendas.

Personally, I’m not ready to throw Santorum out on his ear just over one mistake, even a whopper as big as this one. As long as he toes the line, he will still be better than any other candidates we are likely to see.
