A brilliant animation of a Slavoj Žižek lecture addressing the central tenet of his book First As Tragedy, Then As Farce, engaging issues I’ve addressed before. (Hat tip: Michael Jimenez)

Quit

Anne Rice has quit. After garnering attention a few years back for becoming a Christian, this week she posted this on her Facebook page:

For those who care, and I understand if you don’t: Today I quit being a Christian. I’m out. I remain committed to Christ as always but not to being “Christian” or to being part of Christianity. It’s simply impossible for me to ‘belong’ to this quarrelsome, hostile, disputatious, and deservedly infamous group. For ten years, I’ve tried. I’ve failed. I’m an outsider. My conscience will allow nothing else. As I said below, I quit being a Christian. I’m out. In the name of Christ, I refuse to be anti-gay. I refuse to be anti-feminist. I refuse to be anti-artificial birth control. I refuse to be anti-Democrat. I refuse to be anti-secular humanism. I refuse to be anti-science. I refuse to be anti-life. In the name of …Christ, I quit Christianity and being Christian. Amen.

In an interesting response, the Huffington Post thinks this makes her more Christian than ever.
