Tuesday

• From Face to Face: Would the needy turn down your obsolete computer from 10 years ago? More on planned obsolescence and conspicuous consumption.
• From Ex-Army:
  • Women in the sciences.
  • Nature and human exceptionalism.
  • The medically homeless.
  • “Free” stuff from the government isn't.
• Why Catholicism. More from Modestinus.
• Christianity in Asia. Might any kind of Christianity free the Chinese from the hive mentality, devaluing individual life and liberty, that has hobbled Asian societies? If you think China’s booming now, imagine what that change would do.
