So let me try this:<\/p>\n<p>The Bible is not a book about homosexuality and it will not allow itself to be treated as a book about homosexuality. Nor is the Bible a book about sex. But the Bible is, in fact, very much a book about wealth, possessions and the poor. That is not the central theme, but it is a massively important theme that pervades every portion of the book. If you don&#8217;t agree with that then I don&#8217;t know what it is that you&#8217;ve been reading, but it surely wasn&#8217;t a Bible.<\/p>\n<p>Did that work? That last sentence was deliberately confrontational and accusatory &#8212; did it make you angry? Because I want you to get angry. I want you to become so angry that you won&#8217;t rest until you prove me wrong.&#8221;<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"delicious-tags\">(tags: <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/religion\">religion<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/politics\">politics<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/class-war\">class-war<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/blogs\">blogs<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/slacktivist\">slacktivist<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/history\">history<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/society\">society<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/culture\">culture<\/a>)<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div class=\"delicious-link\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thenation.com\/article\/god-science-and-philanthropy?page=full\">God, Science and Philanthropy | The Nation<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"delicious-extended\">A detailed investigation of everybody&#8217;s favorite science-and-religion organization includes lots of vague insinuations but not much evidence of sinister behavior.<\/div>\n<div class=\"delicious-tags\">(tags: <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/religion\">religion<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/science\">science<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/politics\">politics<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/funding\">funding<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/culture\">culture<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/society\">society<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/history\">history<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/US\">US<\/a>)<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div class=\"delicious-link\"><a href=\"http:\/\/backreaction.blogspot.com\/2010\/06\/impressions-from-pi-workshop-on-laws-of.html\">Backreaction: Impressions from the PI workshop on the Laws of Nature<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"delicious-extended\">An annotated guide to the talks at a recent workshop titled &#8220;Laws of Nature: Their Nature and Knowability.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div class=\"delicious-tags\">(tags: <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/science\">science<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/physics\">physics<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/philosophy\">philosophy<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/blogs\">blogs<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/backreaction\">backreaction<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/meetings\">meetings<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/presentations\">presentations<\/a>)<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div class=\"delicious-link\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.insidehighered.com\/views\/2010\/06\/03\/larson\">Views: Higher Education&#8217;s Big Lie &#8211; Inside Higher Ed<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"delicious-extended\">&#8220;As The New York Times reported recently, there are now more students enrolled in U.S. institutions of higher education than ever before.
