23 Marḥeshwan 5769: World Television Day/World Hello Day

Greetings.

Worthy causes of the day: “Tell Congress to Ban BPA From Baby Bottles and Other Products”, “Ask Obama to support the World’s poorest people”, “Support a Strong International Affairs Budget”, and “A hand up, not a hand-out”.

Relevant to Divine Misconceptions:
  1. “What if Starbucks Marketed Like a Church? A Parable” (with a tip of the hat to Crummy Church Signs):

    This video is a bit of Christian introspection on what not to do when marketing a church, namely that one should avoid freaking people out.  It is very nice to see self-criticism like this.
  2. “Candid criminal: undercover psychologists find bad behavior may be contagious”: Another reason not to be evil. Never forget that humans are imitative.
Today’s news and commentary:Today’s weird thing is “History's greatest conspiracy theories”. Enjoy, share the weirdness, and Shabbath shalom.
