Amidst all of this talk of martyrs, the victim at Columbine has been mentioned several times. People keep mentioning Cassie Bernal, but I thought for the life of me that it was Rachel Scott. Her dad goes on tours talking about the shootings as a type of evangelistic outreach, and he came to IU last year. As far as I can remember, she is the one that refused to renounce belief in God. Were there two?

The Voice of the Martrys that Phillip mentioned is on the web here. They send out a free monthly newsletter that is very informative, as well as a weekly prayer email that keeps you updated on the very large amount of persecution that is happening in the world right now, especially in the Middle East, Asia, and parts of Africa.

Now, I don’t know if this topic is a DH, but what are your opinions on the assassination of JFK: Oswald or conspiracy. I ask because this topic used to fire my imagination and I did some reading on it. (Posner’s book “Case Closed” is excellent.) A good Oswald-did-it site is here.

Also, Star Trek or Star Wars? My roommate is watching ST:TNG right now. The Federation is way too diplomatic. Go Klingons! But my lot is cast with Star Wars as it has always been.
