Beware of drop bears

Greetings.

Jewish date:  9 Nisan 5769.

Today’s quasi-holiday:  National Find-A-Rainbow Day.

Worthy causes of the day:  “Stand With Dr. Dean”, “Support Health Reform in the Budget”, and “Support Global Food Security Action”.

Relevant to Divine Misconceptions:  “No Holds Barred: Christopher Hitchens and the killer Jews”:  There is a major rule in all good reasoning, violation of which completely undermines one’s argument:  YOU WILL NOT LIE.  One can create a lie to “support” any position whatsoever.  However, telling a lie does nothing to change reality and thus proves nothing except about the reliability of anyone who tells a lie.  R. Shmuley Boteach has caught militant atheist Christopher Hitchens lying in “An Army of Extremists” and rightly tears his claims to shreds.

Today’s news and commentary:
Today’s weird thing is the drop bear.  Enjoy, share the weirdness, and Shabbath shalom.

Aaron
