A CiviL Union: December 2006

Progressive commentary on contemporary society from an agnostic (heathen) law student and a Christian (delusional) anthropology student. Saturday, December 16, 2006. Requiem aeternam, Angel Diaz - a Good Friday for Advent. The French social critic Albert Camus reportedly said, "The unbeliever cannot keep from thinking that men who have set at the center of their faith the staggering victim of a judicial error ought at least to hesitate before committing legal murder.". Jesus Christ, betrayed by a friend ...

Progressive commentary on contemporary society from an agnostic (heathen) law student and a Christian (delusional) anthropology student. Saturday, June 30, 2007. PICS v. SSD - Outlines. I have decided to post this piecemeal. The Roberts, Thomas, Kennedy, and Stevens outlines are posted. I'm starting to read the Breyer. Assign to the school attended by an older sibling. If, and only if, the school is not within 15% of the district's demographics, look to student's race (white or nonwhite) to ensure school...

Progressive commentary on contemporary society from an agnostic (heathen) law student and a Christian (delusional) anthropology student. Saturday, March 17, 2007. Anti-War Protests (Or Events I am Not Attending). Throughout the nation (indeed, the world) this weekend, people are taking to the streets to protest the "Iraq War." And already, we have identified the problem. I am sorry to announce that there is no war in Iraq. There is an occupation. But not a war. This is not a new development. Such a solut...

A CiviL Union: May 2007
http://acivilunion.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
Progressive commentary on contemporary society from an agnostic (heathen) law student and a Christian (delusional) anthropology student. Wednesday, May 09, 2007. A Smoldering Republic (or "The Case against Secularism"). We've been having an interesting back-and-forth since Pope Benedict remarked that he approved of local bishops denying communion to public officials and lawmakers around the world who supported legalized abortion. If this is true, certainly it falls outside of human authority to denying a...

A CiviL Union: In This Together - Washington
http://acivilunion.blogspot.com/2009/05/in-this-together-washington.html
Progressive commentary on contemporary society from an agnostic (heathen) law student and a Christian (delusional) anthropology student. Tuesday, May 05, 2009. In This Together - Washington. Every so often, one has a big idea. And it is in precisely those moments that I'm thankful to have a defunct blog where I can put the idea "out there" for ever-so-gradual input and building/abandoning (as appropriate). But this certificate isn't just a piece of paper! No, this is where it gets good. We enlist bus...

Wonder World: January 2006
http://wonderwurld.blogspot.com/2006_01_01_archive.html
My thoughts on my travels throughout the world and through my life. Saturday, January 21, 2006. By request, here's a post about my life in Manhattan. Your welcome mom. The whole place is kind of a mess (Sorry mom). "A place for everything and everything in its place" really only works if everything has a place. The real highlight of the apartment is that it is so close to the law school. We can leave the apartment and make it to class in less than five minutes. That's about all it has going for i...Of co...

Wonder World: April 2006
http://wonderwurld.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html
My thoughts on my travels throughout the world and through my life. Thursday, April 13, 2006. Well, it's a bit shameful. I haven't posted in over a month. Fun stuff is still happening, it's just such a daunting task to post about it all because I'm so behind. So, I'm going to catch you all up very quickly. We spent the next few days exploring Belgium. I took Sam to see the Begginhof in Leuven. Beggins were like nuns who didn't take a vow of celibacy. They lived in the Begginhof, which was supervi...Sam a...

Wonder World: February 2006
http://wonderwurld.blogspot.com/2006_02_01_archive.html
My thoughts on my travels throughout the world and through my life. Tuesday, February 28, 2006. I got into Leuven at about 9 pm After checking my email, I went to bed and slept for a good 10 hours. Despite my lack of acquaintances in the city, I did have plans the following day. The exchange coordinator had planned a lunch for all the law exchange students who were already in town and just waiting for the semester to start. That night there was a big party at the international student cafe. There mus...

Wonder World: November 2006
http://wonderwurld.blogspot.com/2006_11_01_archive.html
My thoughts on my travels throughout the world and through my life. Tuesday, November 07, 2006. Thoughts on Being Haggard. Last Sunday, Rev. Ted Haggard, the founder of the New Life Church in Colorado Springs, Colorado which has over 14,000 members, admitted to being "guilty of sexual immorality". After a gay man claimed to have had "drug-fueled trysts with him". Haggard was a vocal opponent of same sex marriage and had preached that homosexual activity went against the teachings of the Bible. And here's...
