Children know that if they have a question about the world, the library is the place to find the answer. And someone will always be there to help them find the answer-our librarians.

Christianity is NOT a religion; it is the proclamation of the end of religion. Religion is a human activity dedicated to the job of reconciling God to humanity and humanity to itself.

It is the bizarre proclamation that religion is over - period.

College football is no more of a minor league than, say, the universities' schools of journalism, engineering or music are. We can argue at another time whether football should occupy the same space on campus as those disciplines, but for now, it does.

Comedy Central does a really good job of finding totally different comedies.

Comedy today is definitely skewed to the filthy side, but it's not as hard today as I am more mature as a comedian and a person. I'm a grown up now doing a kid's job.
