My yes expresses gratitude that the 90 seconds actually makes sense - I've expressed elsewhere a slight concern about our need for quick hits in terms of our attention span - Djiezes will typically clip articles that require an investment of time to fully appreciate - this delivers against its headline but also hits the other parts of our brain that are willing to take their time.

Wow, awesome.
Poor Judaism, it seems to just linger in the background of all these revolutions. ^^

Guess how many wars were started by atheism? None! (Except maybe the war on Christmas.)

True, it might be more useful to view most of my clips as a pointer, a foretaste of what's following instead of treating it as a summary of what's at the source.
... hence my heavily used remark "... more @ source ..."

I think this might be somewhat at odds with the 2000-character limit & the 'bite-size' philosophy (/ideology?) of clipmarks; which I didn't like from the start. But then again, I'm an "information-junkie" myself, so I realize & fully appreciate the usefuln...

I'm NOT religious. I'm SAVED!!!
John 3:16 (The Message Bible)
16-18"This is how much God loved the world: He gave his Son, his one and only Son. And this is why: so that no one need be destroyed; by believing in him, anyone can have a whole and lasting life. God didn't go to all the trouble of sending his Son merely to point an accusing finger, telling the world how bad it was. He came to help, to put the world right again. Anyone who trusts in him is acquitted; anyone who refuses to trust him has long since been under the death sentence without knowing it. And why? Because of that person's failure to believe in the one-of-a-kind Son of God when introduced to him.

It's somewhat a simplistic and a not quite so correct repartition of religions
