Woman on Memri TV on Muslim Culture Clash

Not Invulnerable

Trust flows between us, a ribbon of years collecting and growing until the tragic break. A thoughtless word, a look, a laugh, a glance at another who shares your displeasure. My inadequacy becomes your superiority, and I fall. Words fail. Knowing you are right, I laugh with you. If I let you know the pain you have caused, you will know where it is. The chink in my armor, my Achilles’ heel, the vulnerability I extended to you becomes your weapon of choice. I wrap my pain about me as a shield. I have heard you speak of others and know it must be so of me when I am not there. What fatality did you see in me that you must share with others in my absence? Just what did you expect? Have I not told you all along that I am a joke, a veil of coverings over the real me that I too despise? Why then should your betrayal surprise me? I know the balance of the scale or lack thereof. The tipping to the side. At times the weight of my faults bears down so hard the light goodness in me is catapulted off the other side.

Resolve. I steel myself and beg God to guard my lips and eyes that I might not cause such pain. Still, I know my guilt. Forgive me for the pain I have caused.

Do not pay attention to every word people say,
or you may hear your servant cursing you-
for you know in your heart
that many times you yourself have cursed others.
Ecclesiastes 7:21-22 (New International Version)

A teacher with faith and reason - The Boston Globe

Could a professor who believes in Biblical creationism teach physics at a major university?  Yes, and he did a good job.  He
"notwithstanding his religious fervor and intense interest in Biblical interpretation -- went on to become the most renowned scientist of his age, and arguably the most influential in history."

"In order to make even the most mundane of everyday decisions it is necessary to have good information. The public depends on television, radio and print media to deliver reliable and accurate information. For the most part, reporters and editors do their jobs and the result is an informed public. In some instances, however, the information relayed to the public is neither reliable nor accurate. Far too often, inaccurate information is reported and repeated until it achieves a certain myth status. The goal of this site is to debunk myths that take hold as a result of inaccurate or irresponsible media reports.

Truth Through Scrutiny -- When inaccurate information is reported in the news media, especially when it is reported on the wire services and gets repeated worldwide, it is difficult to "take back" the initial report and correct the record. With the rise of new media such as talk radio and blogs, traditional media has come under increased scrutiny and some stories that in past generations might have been left to stand, have been exposed as false. Those instances, which are often relegated to small print at the back of the newspaper, will be collected here."
