I’ve heard that same-sex marriages are happening in Nevada, too, but I can’t find a news story about it. Anybody got a link? It’s more good news, in any case 🙂
From dailydig:
Intentions, of course, are always good. The worse the fight, the higher its justification. “Justified” violence is the worst. Unjustified violence bursts out of a bad character or bad feelings, but it doesn’t go very far. But when people feel justified in the use of violence, it becomes systematic and leads to all the horrors of history.
–Lanza del Vasto, from The Horrors of History
And from qotdrss
I maintain there is much more wonder in science than in pseudoscience. And in addition, to whatever measure this term has any meaning, science has the additional virtue, and it is not an inconsiderable one, of being true.
–Carl Sagan
