传的短篇,还有自己写的“创作感想”。看到TRENDS那一篇,居然发现他在1938年(当
时他还在读大学)成功预测成两件事:1)1940年第二次世界大战,2)1970年,人类登

两件事都只差1年而已!
我一直觉得那个SF黄金时期的创作高峰,后来者很难翻越……

TRENDS
John Harman was sitting at his desk, brooding, when I entered the office
that day.
It had become a common sight, by then, to see him staring out at the Hudson,
head in

定這種題目,我想很多人都會想要罵我,先別急!?因為定義基督教為『邪教』我並不
是第一人,早在西元 4 世紀之前,羅馬帝國就已經定義基督教為邪教,後來因為政治
上的需要,君士坦丁大帝才將基督教改為國教,甚至到東羅馬帝國皇帝狄奧多西二世曾
經在 435 年頒佈命令對所有除猶太人以外的異教徒處以死刑。而一些伊斯蘭教國家,
如中東的沙特阿拉伯、非洲的迦納等信奉伊斯蘭教國家中基督教是被視為『邪教』列入
禁止的,信徒只能秘密聚會。
然而把基督教列為『邪教』這種有悖於世俗觀念的命題,並非是大隻熊要譁眾取寵,而
是有鑑於近幾年國人被基督教文化污染的人越來越多,一些光怪陸離的現象不斷的出現

g********d 发帖数: 4174 | 43 The founder of the antigay National Organization for Marriage, Maggie
Gallagher, wrote her last syndicated advice column on Wednesday and
announced she was giving up optimism.
Gallager's column has run in various publications for 17 years, where she
espoused her conservative, and often antigay, beliefs. Gallagher has long
been the face of the anti-marriage equality movement, appearing on talk
shows and news programs. In her final column, Gallagher admits much of her
work has proved fruitless. "O... 阅读全帖 |

去年发生在科罗来纳州一处农场的两名女童非正常死亡案,涉案的就是一个连名字也没
有、仅有9名成员(其中包括4名儿童)的末日派邪教。对此,受相关媒体之托,美国丹
佛大学宗教学教授卡尔·拉什克通过对法庭证词进行研究,指出了这种小型却致命邪教
的基本特征:信奉末日论和通灵说,滥用其他宗教(包括邪教)的教义、标志和实践。
查阅了数百页证词的丹佛大学教授卡尔·拉什克认为,去年在科罗拉多州偏远地区
对两名女孩死亡负有责任的末日派邪教,具有“硬核新时代”(hardcore New Age,“
硬核”一词有“极端”之意)组织表征,其教义混杂融合了多个有名的宗教组织。
去年9月份的时候,十岁的玛克拉·罗伯兹(Makayla Roberts)和八岁的汉娜·马
歇尔(Hannah Marshall)被发现死于诺伍德农场的一辆锁死的小汽车内,与此同时有
数名成年人在附近唱颂歌、冥想、等待世界末日降临。

Disorganizer-in-Chief
Jean Quan is a poor excuse for a mayor.
Occupy Oakland called for a general strike — the city grinding to a halt,
banks unattended, and schools closed. What they got was a few thousand
protesters vandalizing banks and briefly closing a unionized port, but more
important, a mayor happy to facilitate it all. Wednesday night would have
been no more disturbing than a vigorous though destructive demonstration by... 阅读全帖 |

MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- Meet the new boss, says Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker,
pledging to make peace with Democrats after his historic recall victory.

the triumphant governor isn't the same as the old boss.
"A lot of what the governor had to say he said last year in his inauguration
address," a skeptical Democratic state Sen. Jon Erpen... 阅读全帖 |
