		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s an interesting article in the New York Times discussing the possible impact language has on perception. These ideas clearly have some relevance to the translation and understanding of biblical texts, but there is also some danger in proposing speculative interpretations based on the perceived significance of distinctive characteristics of Hebrew. Of course, this wouldn&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

But now we&#8217;re faced with a hung parliament and the horse trading with the independents and Greens as one or the other major party seeks to form a government. It suggests to me that the label assigned by [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Another Sutherland to Surf fun run took place on the 25th July. The weather was more pleasant than last year, but my preparation was not as good. Nonetheless I cut about half a minute off my overall time, so in the circumstances I was quite pleased. The results this year were not separated into runners [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I just felt compelled to make some pedantic observations. most movies are 3D All the old movies, including black and white ones, were 3D. On the other hand, movies in which you are required to wear special spectacles are 4D, not 3D. They record three spatial dimensions and one temporal dimension. The &#8220;old&#8221; movies displayed [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Noticed an interesting article about using computer software to decipher an ancient language, in this case Ugaritic. The article is here. There are, of course, a few caveats which are worthy of note. Ugaritic was chosen because it is well understood so the computer&#8217;s results could be checked. Furthermore, it only works if a series [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the hallmarks of recent (and perhaps not-so-recent) expressions of the doctrine of Scripture has been the claim that the autographs were inerrant. There are, however, problems with this assertion. First, it is untestable because we don&#8217;t have the autographs. Second, it is largely irrelevant, because we don&#8217;t have the autographs (why would God [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve always had reservations about the doctrine, so here&#8217;s a copy of the comment I posted over there: There&#8217;s obviously serious danger in questioning centuries of theological thinking, but where angels fear to tread&#8230; So here are my primary concerns with [...]]]></description>
