Religion and Philosophy: December 2007 Archives
Looks like the court case I mentioned has been postponed again. Essentially a ruling on religious freedom in Egypt, this issue has again been swept under the rug and ignored. Here is a re-posting of an article from an Egyptian newspaper on the subject (also posted here). This is getting ridiculous.
Time for some links, I think.
- Egyptian court to rule on religious freedom cases next week, or at least they're supposed to. As the article summarises, "The government requires all identification papers to list religious affiliation but then restricts the choice to the three officially recognized religions -- Islam, Christianity, and Judaism. Baha'is are thus unable to obtain identification papers because they refuse to lie about their religious affiliation." Let's hope it doesn't get postponed like last time.
- The Machine Girl. Possibly the best film trailer ever. Is actually a real film.
- Rap represented in mathematical charts and graphs. I find some of the Venn diagrams particularly awesome.
