Steve Roby comments on the proposed Defence of Religion Act expected to show up in the House of Commons here in Ottawa soon. Not my choice of phrasing, although I share some concerns of his on this matter.
Lee Barnett notes the potential pitfalls of a meme now in progress on LJ, the spirit of which I sympathize with for reasons personal and ethical. I also keep in mind something Alan Alda said whilst "in character" on The West Wing that leads me to sympathize with Lee's concerns.
