LiveJournal Feed Working; RSS Fix for Firefox; Photos Up

Posted January 4, 2005, 6:27 p.m.

The Off on a Tangent LiveJournal feed is working again. If you are a LiveJournal user, just add “lifenewsblog” to your friends list.

Additionally, the site RSS feed has been properly flagged so that RSS-aware browsers (like Mozilla Firefox, the preferred browser for Windows and Linux users) will know the feed is there. This makes it an easier process to add the Off on a Tangent feed to live bookmarks and RSS aggregators so you can be among the first to know when new content is available!

Also, the Photos section (under ‘Random’) is now populated with most of what was on the old site.

Quotes

Despair is anger with no place to go.

Mignon McLaughlin

If one man conquer in battle a thousand times a thousand men, and if another conquer himself, he is the greatest of conquerors.

Siddhartha Gautama

This triangle of truisms, of father, mother[,] and child, cannot be destroyed; it can only destroy those civilizations which disregard it.

G. K. Chesterton

Fighting Communism, Socialism, and the subversion of constitutional government is everybody’s job. And working for the expansion of freedom is everybody’s job.

W. Cleon Skousen

Natural selection does not positively produce anything. It only eliminates, or tends to eliminate, whatever is not competitive.

Antony Flew

Law is order, and good law is good order.

Aristotle

Passion and prejudice govern the world; only under the name of reason. It is our part, by religion and reason joined, to counteract them all we can.

John Wesley

In the United States . . . all that [a man] asks of the State is not to be disturbed in his toil, and to be secure of his earnings.

Alexis de Tocqueville

How do we bring about conversion of those living in blindness? By love. By truth in charity. By offering forgiveness. By offering mercy. With prayer.

Abby Johnson

‘Sola scriptura’ reduces the Bible to a riddle that no one can interpret with certainty because each person can only rely on his or her fallible understanding of the sacred text.

Jimmy Seghers

Count it all joy, my brethren, when you meet various trials, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.

James the Just

We must reject the idea that every time a law’s broken, society is guilty rather than the lawbreaker. It is time to restore the American precept that each individual is accountable for his actions.

Ronald Reagan

Be united to Christ in order to purify yourself, and together with him experience the insults, the spit, the blows and the thorns. . . .

If marriage is centrally an emotional union . . . it becomes much harder to show why the state should concern itself with marriage any more than with friendship. Why involve the state in what amounts to the legal regulation of tenderness?

Sherif Girgis

The freedom to kill is not true freedom, but a tyranny that reduces the human being to slavery.

Benedict XVI

Because we are so scientific now—and so determinedly materialistic—it is very difficult for us even to understand that other ways of seeing can and do exist.

It is absurd to hold that a man ought to be ashamed of being unable to defend himself with his limbs but not of being unable to defend himself with speech and reason, when the use of reason is more distinctive of a human being than the use of his limbs.

Aristotle

He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you.

Friedrich Nietzsche
