		<title>Mormons, Productivity, Intelligence and Living Alone</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Interesting post up at The Audacious Epigone (HT: Gene Expression)  Mormons are the least likely of 19 denominations examined to live alone.  Also Mormons are the second highest for having an income beyond what intelligence alone predicts.  (Jews being first)  
In an other post he lists several other interesting statistics about [...]]]></description>

		<title>LDS Theological Methodology</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Over on LDS-Herm Jacob Baker posted a nice little bibliography of papers relevant for discussing LDS theological method.  This has been a topic of interest to many the past years as more formal thinking about our theology has flourished.  While I think writing on specific topics is still underdeveloped there has been a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Anselm&#8217;s Ontological Proof for God</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;d mentioned on the sidebar Richard&#8217;s discussion of the ontological proof for God.  I wanted to return to this since I think the proof is just one of the most interesting arguments in philosophy.  It&#8217;s been characterized many ways and most of the variations we have today owe at least as much to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Anodyne Age</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Secular Right has up a post on an anodyne age. 
&#8220;We live in an age when religion is good, just not too much, or too strange.&#8221;
This explains, I think, a lot of the reaction to folks like Romney.  (I didn&#8217;t care for him as a candidate but he was really mistreated in my opinion) [...]]]></description>

		<title>We&#8217;re Back</title>
		<description><![CDATA[OK, Christmas is over so regular posting will be resuming today.  My number one topic focus this week will be Blake&#8217;s book which I wasn&#8217;t able to dedicate the time to that I wished the prior two months.  So if you have his third volume I look forward to your comments.

		<title>Facts about Drugs</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Facts about drugs.  There were several things I didn&#8217;t know.  However it is clear Mexico is in a virtual civil war with their army suffering more deaths than our army has faced in Iraq.  Think about that.
I suspect the political realities means that Obama won&#8217;t engage this issue.  Although taxing alcohol [...]]]></description>

		<title>Peirce on Universals</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A few Peircean thoughts related to that quote about Derrida from yesterday.

After a good deal of reflection and careful rereading, I have come to think that the common pragmatistic opinion aforesaid is that every thought (unless perhaps certain single ideas each quite sui generis) has a meaning beyond the immediate content of the thought itself, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Derrida and Universals</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is a great quote I came upon.  It deals with Derrida but applies equally to Pierce&#8217;s conception of universals.  (I&#8217;ll see if I can&#8217;t find a Peirce quote tomorrow)  I think Derrida was actually somewhat influenced by Peirce here.  (Looking at this section on Peirce in On Grammatology)  Although [...]]]></description>
