		<description><![CDATA[I know that I&#8217;m writing from several time zones ahead of many of you, and I&#8217;d like to report that there has still not been a rapture yet.
The world didn&#8217;t end in 1994 when Harold Camping said that it would, it didn&#8217;t end in 2000 when EVERYONE said it would, it didn&#8217;t end yesterday, and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Let&#8217;s do a bit of an experiment today, shall we?
Say we have two well educated, intelligent people, both of who did very well in school, but each had one subject that they struggled with and just plain didn&#8217;t get.  Now, imagine them each saying the following things:
Person A:  I really can&#8217;t read much. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Why are we so obsessed with the end of days?  The apocalyptic movie 2012 was a major box office success.  It seems that everywhere you look there is someone spouting off about how Global Warming, Nuclear War, Sunbursts, or who knows what else is going to doom us for all of eternity.

		<description><![CDATA[Now it&#8217;s been a few weeks since the G20 Summit and Protests in Toronto, but I&#8217;m still at a loss for explanations.  Normally I can understand things that I don&#8217;t agree with, but this certainly is not one of those times.

		<description><![CDATA[Way back in May I had the absolute pleasure of heading to China&#8217;s Western Frontier, Xinjiang Province.  It was simply a breath-taking experience.  I got to see pristine mountains, vast seas of desert, and bargain for goods in several different languages.
