Should We Save Endangered Species?

Ooops I mean, societies. 
Interesting read and not really something I have thought about before. 
I can see the pros and cons of either argument.  We cannot interfere to "save" them without ruining their society, yet if we let them pass does not a small part of our collective human soul die?
What say you?
Should we save endangered cultures?

The Critics of Islam Are Right

The critics of Islam were right

We who have carelessly thrown around the Islamophobe label including Glen Greenwald, Reza Aslan, and Karen Armstrong should lower our heads in shame and guilt. Few things are as morally depraved as attacking someone who criticizes Islam (Ayaan Hirsi Ali) rather than attacking the Islamic apostasy and blasphemy laws teaching Muslims they should kill her. We must now live with the knowledge that we've abandoned and betrayed our principles. Though we claim the mantle of human rights, free speech and equality, we lack the courage of our convictions when it offends someone. We make the cowardly lion look like Churchill.

I think our Will would have loved these!
Great post from my dear duffers, with a link to the Telegraph article.  Might be a book worth pursuing, given my love of art and our Will.

Blizzapocalypse 2016

Yes, my car is under there.
Fortunately my daughter's boyfriend is currently outside digging.  We still have another 12 hours of snow to go.
I would send more photos, but I cannot find the cable for my camera at the moment, and my daughter is reluctant to take photos to upload for me.

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to each and every one of you!  May God bless your life and your families as we celebrate the promise God made to Adam and Eve that we would no longer be separated from Him by sin through the ultimate Gift of His Son.
