I found the following Lifehack.org article on Lori’s blog the other day and thought it was worth reprinting here, if only as an easy-access reminder for myself. But I also thought most people would relate to it – there are at least a couple habits here that feel very true for me. I wasn’t sure whether to post this here or on nothing ventured …
in the end I posted it on both because, although it may get more response here initially, it’s more likely to stay at the top of the page at the other place (for easy reference).

Many of our problems come from within our own minds. They aren’t caused by events, bad luck, or other people. We cause them through our own poor mental habits. Here are 10 habits you should set aside right away to free yourself from the many problems each one will be causing you.

This is so incredibly vile and disgusting … and I don’t think it is a hoax.

I couldn’t find a ‘youtube’ version that includes the four-year-old girl ‘very cutely’ spewing out all this hatred by rote at the end of it – though I’ve seen it elsewhere.

These are Christians? Bob save us all!

Anglicans ‘obsessed’ by gay issue

Archbishop Desmond Tutu has called on Africa’s Anglican church to overcome its “obsession” with the issue of gay priests and same-sex marriages.

He said they should spend time on more pressing issues in the region.

Zimbabwe’s Anglican church also lacked courage to stand up to President Robert Mugabe’s regime, he said.

  7. Target key individuals
  8. Control the press
  9. Dissent equals treason
  10. Suspend the rule of law
  11. Continue reading →
