COFFEE BREAK 113
+ updated at 3:52pm EST
+ The snow keeps on coming. And it's very cold. This Lake-effect snow has rarely been anything but light but it has been falling most of the time for the past 30 hours or so. Perhaps 10 inches so far and more to come tonight and possibly tomorrow. I love it!
+ Thanks to the Spirituality and Practice Living Spiritual Teachers Project I discovered that On Faith offers "Christianity's Record Not Blameless" by Karen Armstrong. Excerpt: "Christians can only help to bring peace to the world if they first confront their own faults. Christianity has a long record of intolerance, inquisition, crusade and persecution. The way forward is to promote the ideal of compassion and loving kindness rather than making inflammatory and exaggerated remarks about another religious tradition, which will simply exacerbate the situation."
