so why the anarchist reverend? you'll find out soon enough.
on my bookshelf
- douglas p. fry: Beyond War
an anthropological study debunking the idea that humans were born to be warlike. a fascinating book with solid research behind it. definitely a must read for people who are interested in peace. (*****) - alan moore: v for vendetta
a graphic novel dealing with issues of totalitarianism, violence, suppression of rights, and many other issues. chilling, but well done. (*****) - john taylor gatto: dumbing us down
a really fascinating book about the failures of compulsory schooling in the united states. (*****) - jaques ellul: christianity and anarchy
a decent book about the intersection and agreement about christianity and anarchy. walter wink: jesus and nonviolence: a third way
this is an excellent book about non-violent resistance. it's easy to read and has some really concrete examples of how to use non-violent resistance as well as the biblical basis behind it all. excellent book. (*****)
currently listening to:
- anais mitchell: the brightness
listen to her "song of the magi" for a beautiful telling of jesus' birth and homeland. (*****) anais mitchell: Hymns for the Exiled
mitchell's voice and lyrics are just haunting. i love her more every time i listen to this album. (*****)jess klein: city garden
with a raw and passionate voice, jess' music is thrilling and powerful. this album is great.antje duvekot: big dream boulevard
a wonderful artist who writes beautiful and heartrending songs full of love and loss and passion. she is hands down one of the best songwriters out there. (*****)bright eyes: cassadaga
this is an excellent new album from "bright eyes." i love connor oberst's take on religion and God. his views are refreshing and heart-rending.- the aracade fire: neon bible
an interesting album by an interesting band.
