Part of the culture of blogging is writing about other
people’s writing, sometimes even copying posts and essays whole (because it’s
much easier than coming up with something original!). What the heck … doesn’t
hurt to say, “Hey, guys, this is what I’ve been reading recently! Take a look!”
So there are three essays I want to commend to your attention: one on the pro-life movement’s “devil’s bargain” with the Republican Party, one on American educators’ theft from students of their cultural heritage, and one on the problematic nature of proving God from science.

Distributist Review: “Pro-Life or Anti-Abortion?” by John Médaille
This article came just before I read that a
Google extension is soon to be released which would change all instances of
“pro-life” to “anti-choice” for those who want it. Frankly, I believe the
extension would likely infringe on copyrighted material (“If I’d meant ‘anti-choice’, I’d have written ‘anti-choice’!”); right now I
have neither the funds nor the interest to pursue the matter further. If
pro-aborts are that desperate to maintain the illusion that they control the
terms of the debate, I suppose that’s their problem.
