+ I have begun a series of posts on God Has A Dream by Desmond Tutu at The Abundancetrek Blog.
+ Shuck and Jive offers "Better Living Through Evolution" by John Shuck. Excerpt: "Evolution isn't just about biology. It can help us understand human behavior. While theology encourages us to think in categories such as sin and redemption, evolution encourages us to think in terms of variation, consequences, and heredity." The post goes on to promote a book and website which challenges us to embrace Evolution, learn from it and thrive. Excerpt from the book: "For many students who take a course such as the one that I offer, learning about evolution is like walking through a door and not wanting to return. Using it to think about their interests and concerns becomes second nature, like riding a bicycle. They are eager to develop their expertise in subsequent courses and disappointed by professors who do not share their newfound perspective. In response to this demand, I and my colleagues at Binghamton University created a program called EvoS that enables anyone to use evolutionary theory to explore the pageant of life on earth, including the pageant of human life." (Evolution for Everyone: How Darwin's Theory Can Change the Way We Think About Our Lives by David Sloan Wilson, pg. 9)
