Mindblown: a blog about philosophy.

  • Al Gore Wins Nobel Peace Prize

    No, Really. http://www.nytimes.com/2007/10/13/world/13nobel.html?ex=1207800000&en=a09d6d4a2d4bb2ed&ei=5087&excamp=GGGNalgorenobelpeace&WT.srch=1&WT.mc_id=GN-S-E-GG-SEM-KP-1055490488-S-NA-al_gore_nobel_peace And futher, his book based on the “Documentary” “An Inconveiniant Truth” is the most stolen German Book: http://uk.reuters.com/article/oddlyEnoughNews/idUKL142392220071014?feedType=RSS&feedName=oddlyEnoughNews

  • Bible Arguments

    http://www.ethicalatheist.com/docs/religion_and_science.html An interesting site. Those of you that regularly read this blog (which I think amounts to my mum =) ), will note that I’m generally open minded. This site, however, is a direct oposite for all the things I’ve ranted about Fundies. Indeed, most of the articles on this site managed to annoy both…

  • Ghastly Alphabet

    http://www.admetam.org/arsmoriendi/ How many of us would have learned the alphabet quicker with these pictures? BX

  • Hey Dude

    http://www.cybermoonstudios.com/8bitDandD.html Hey dude, Don’t be afraid, You were made to, roleplay better. Remember to get into your characters skin, then you can start to roleplay better.

  • Testing the Faith?

    http://www.vexappeal.com/lolgod/uploaded_images/groundfaith-714848.jpg Of course… as I was once told “This is God’s Little Joke”. Work out for yourself what I mean by that. BX

  • On Eating of Animals

    Seen on a signature, of (as far as I can gather) G.Pitman on the RedHat List “There’s plenty of room for all God’s creatures… Right next to the mashed potatoes.” Interesting to think that we had the passage from Mathew on Sunday about Jesus saying that it was not what went into a man that…

  • Never Forget

    Unforgettable Photos We often think that things we shouldn’t forget came only out of the Second World War. Visions of concentration camps. Visions of the mass graves. The pain fades over the years. These photos show things havn’t changed. I have more to pray for, it seems BX

  • Prospective Ordinand Open Day: Is God Calling you to Ministry

    Turns out, the Answer may be yes. But then, I kind of knew that anyway. This was a day being run by the Diocess where all those of us with questions can go and see people who have been through the process, where we can meet people at the same level as us, and generally…

  • In Search of a New Name

    Using this Name Generator, I managed to find the names “Standard Pirate”, and “Mechanical Angel”. One shortens to SP, and the other MA. Not bad. I quite like Mechanical Angel, however it appears to be a picture. After that, it stopped being imaginative. Storm Angel appears to be available, but doesn’t seem to be Male…

  • Useless Fact 105

    105. China has more English speakers than the United States. Need I say more? WFKSK

  • 301 Useless Facts

    301 Useless facts Essentially what most blogs are about, random stuff that’s out there, mixed with a little opinion. This Blog, par example, is missing on a bit of opinon, mostly due to time constraints. Hopefully, I can fix that sometime soon. Until then, enjoy the links. WFKSK

  • A Gigapixel Image

    Van Gogh’s Starry Night seen here as a Gigapixel image. That is, (as the page explains), thousands of smaller images used to make up the picture. I thought it was quite neat. WFKSK

  • Name Change?

    Is it time for an interent name change? I’ve been ShadowKnight since ’97. Thing is, every man and his dog is now ALSO ShadowKnight. DarkSkye managed to get a fairly unique nick, so I think perhaps it’s time to update the name, and see if I can find something that’s unusall, different, and more importantly,…

  • Drawing Manga

    Why? Well, because I thought it would be fun. I’ve been meaning to get into it for a while, because I used to enjoy drawing, but never found a subject matter that kept me interested. So, I gathered together a few sites, and had a go. I popped down to the local Supermarket, and picked…

  • YAQ

    It does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods or no God. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg. – Thomas Jefferson

Got any book recommendations?
