Thomas Merton on "sanity" and Christianity in the modern world

Václav Havel's 1994 speech on transcendence

Inspiring, but also provocative and fascinating. Havel basically insists that some kind of religiousness is all that can "save" us now, though he doesn't really say how or what.

Flickr + Library of Congress: Flickr Commons

What a great idea. Collaborative tagging and description for publicly-owned, historic photos. Some creative thought re copyrights as well -- they've introduced a new designation, "No known copyright restrictions." Cool.

Critical response to a seminar on teaching with the theme "Religion in American History," from a conservative Christian perspective (from EdWatch.org). For the record, I think the critique is misguided, but it's still an important one.
