Abolishing slavery, again
Joe Carter in Evangelical Outpost has written a thought-provoking article that I recommend to you. It's short. Christian Doctor's Digest had an interview about human trafficking in the past few months.
EO is a blog by an Evangelical former Marine, computer geek, who used to work at the Center for Bioethics and Human Dignity. I met Joe up there when I spent a week on a miniretreat to learn something about bioethics. Also about blogging; he is so much better at it than I but he was generous with his time and talent. He is always thoughtful, at times maddening, but comes up with interesting topics all the time. His "Yak shaving razor" series which lists little useful items is a must see. From that I learned that if you type "Starbucks 80113" into your text message on your cell phone and send it to GOOGL (46645) you will in seconds receive two texts listing the closest Starbucks. I've also used it to find bank branches, hardware stores, etc. All you need is the zip code. Here is a link to Google that explains all the features. Weather, sports, stock quotes, driving directions, we live in amazing time.
