Ich bin ja so aufgeregt! Mal sehen, ob das alles stimmt, was man sich darüber so erzählt…

Maniraptoren als Haustiere: Der neue Hype? [en]
Ok, ok, der korrekte Plural wäre wohl Maniraptora – aber ich hatte halt nie Latein.
I Feel Hate [en]
Danke Donna! Und danke Giorgio! Schad’ ist’s. Sehr viel weniger Dank hingegen an die GEMA und die GEZ: Gesehen im Podcast der Tagesschau — einem der wenigen Gründe, die mich noch dazu bewegen ehrlich meine GEZ-Gebühren zu bezahlen. Statt aber auch Internetnutzern adäquate Inhalte zu bieten, halten es ARD und ZDF wohl für sinnvoller mich mit …
Sacral Architecture [en]
Admittedly, religion can be good for something. What I enjoy most, is some of the architecture it left behind. As for Christianity, some of their buildings even prove useful for skiing: Shout-out to the rider and the photo team!

Open Letter to the Atheist, Secularist and Humanist Society at London School of Economics [en]
Subject: Your controversy with the LSE Students’ Union Dear Members of the Atheist, Secularist and Humanist Society, I’m writing to support and encourage you in your struggle with the LSE Students’ Union, which apparently originated around your endorsement of a Jesus and Mo cartoon on Facebook. Actually, to me it seems the conflict only arose …
