I’m still here

May 10, 2008

October 10, 2006

And I can post again! Yay! In case you didn’t check out the comments to my last post, here’s an update on my last few days. Just after posting my last post on Thursday, I saw that there was a “Switch to Blogger beta” button on my Blogger Dashboard, and stupid me, I pushed it. [...]

In The News: Religion, Diet, Racism, and Sport

September 16, 2006

In a discussion about how faith and reason can coexist, he mentions a religious dialogue that took place between the Byzantine emperor Manuel II Paleologus and an educated Persian around 1391: In [...]
