Sacred Treasure
- Religious people are psychotic apparently… Interesting article by Jules Evans from Wired – a classic sign of the prevailing culture that values pragmatism over truth.
- A very interesting critique of the US Christian right from a member of the US Christian right (HT Carl Trueman)
- The 17 most misused verses in the Bible? Discuss
A work of genius: the contemporary 7 deadly sins… (HT Josh Harris … not sure who created it)- OMF have produced a nice trio of Hudson Taylor wallpapers – hope there are more where they came from
- Findo does a nice job over at Transpositions on Haydn’s Creation
- This is a pretty interesting site: ORBIS, an interactive map of the ancient Roman world (HT Brigid of Kildare)
Topical Treasure
- The power of the net for oppression – behind the scenes of Gaddafi’s Electronic Army
- Some moving photographs of Africans taken by Africans
- If you got hooked by the recent transit of Venus, this will be a very interesting read
Quirky Treasure
- Slightly nuts: a piece of music that can be played upside down
- A Natural Spectacular: A Murmuration of Starlings in Scotland
- I’m a sucker for this kind of thing: vintage photos taken back years later to the place they were originally taken
- And Guy Laramee is a genius – wonderful 3-d metaphors of the worlds that books draw one into
- Rather lovely film about people looking back on their school photos
