RACE For What It Is
Edward James Olmos gives a very interesting and enlightening speech on “race” at the United Nations. They were there to talk about his hit SciFi show Battlestar Galactica.
I agree with the idea that we will never get rid of racism until we stop referring to “race”.
Have you filled out your 2010 Census yet? For all the “programs” that the US Government has on fighting racism why do they keep perpetuating the situation by forcing you to choose one?
UND Logo Suggestion
I read a local blog called the BismarckMandanBlog.com. The author has some interesting views on issues and I especially like his comments on the UND Fighting Sioux. His latest is a suggestion of changing the nickname to the UND Valiant White Men. In his words: “nothing could be more "hostile" and "abusive" to the PC crowd than a white guy.”
He also has several other articles that refer to the UND nickname:
- Another "hostile and abusive" logo spotted in Bismarck – ND State Highways are “hostile & abusive”
- "Hostile and abusive" logo discovered in Bismarck-Mandan – ND State Patrol are “hostile & abusive”
- University AD apologizes for UND’s presence at their tournament, Clint gets quoted by Dartmouth Review – Dartmouth College Athletic Director appologizes for the UND’s “offensive and wrong” nickname. Read his response on this one, it’s really good.
Saddest April Fools Joke Ever
Catholic School Stands Firm
In Boulder, CO there is a Catholic school that refused to admit a preschooler because the child’s parents are lesbians.
I wasn’t realy sure how I felt about this story: Catholic School Rejects Child Because Of Lesbian Parents on TheDenverChannel.com – until I read through it.
In the eyes of God: sin is sin is sin is sin is sin.
There are no degrees of sin where you can be forgiven of some and not others. Jesus died for all of our sins, not just some of them.
So, I guess I am on the side of the protesters in that “God loves all people”.
However, I also believe that if this particular Catholic school wishes to keep out the influence from this form of sexual immorality they should have the right to do so.

Politically Incorrect Hockey Jersey Design Champion
The Hockey News had a contest and found that the best design of ALL hockey jerseys is the University of North Dakota Fighting Sioux. That’s right. They put it against the big boys in the NHL and still came out on top. I guess their readers don’t understand that “Fighting Sioux” is offensive.
If you read to the bottom of the article you will notice that they have made it even better.
