Especially at this time of year, when everyone is plumping up on baked goods, fatty fireside drinks and extra time spent inside and away from the cold, it’s not a bad idea to put our body image ideals in check.

Interesting article on Christians' changing views... →
I may not consider myself Christian, but I consider this article a worthwhile read. I think it says something about American’s (slowly) changing sexual mores.

Pop disappointments
This is a trivial matter, but they have their places in the world.
