		<description><![CDATA[This post was initially headed in the direction of parsing a little history around the word intellectual. It just didn&#8217;t come together as a single post, and I am not great at separating a long post into constituent parts – so the beginning of my posts on men of letters as they were once called, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The shingled gray of clouded thunder shook me in the trees on Little Digger Mountain. Roiling the rain, white flashes of lightning seared holes in the sky, and the air clapped back in on itself, with me, standing there in the trees on Little Digger Mountain. I stepped off the bank, knee deep, and let [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I opened this new version of Skalduggery with a post concerning cowardice and virtues that had as its triggering subject an article by Christopher Hitchens. It happened that I disagreed with Hitchens in that case – I found his claim that &#8220;religion poisons everything&#8220; unconvincing. More, it&#8217;s often easier to find ideological zealotry outside of religion; [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Once upon a time religions were categorized or classified as either Apollonian or Dionysian. The Apollonian faiths were more cerebral, focused on knowledge, poetry, and the arts. Dionysian faiths were more earthy and visceral, focusing praise, celebration, fellowship. Think in terms of Episcopalians and any of the many Charismatic churches. In a variety of ways, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ever hear of Theo van Gogh? Ayaan Hirsi Ali? Based on conversations with random people at coffee, sandwich, and ice cream shops it seems many Americans don&#8217;t really remember or know these names. Understandable, but if I asked if they remembered a Dutch movie director murdered because of a movie he made – then there [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is a post from the old site, but one that fits the direction I&#8217;m headed. I received about 25 emails in response to last week&#8217;s post… of course; only 15 of them actually provided anything worth reading. Some spam, a little ranting, and a couple accusing me of being part of &#8220;the right wing [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve two daughters who are veterans, and one is still on active duty. I watched a segment on the Fox channel; I think it was their morning program that featured a singer I enjoyed once upon [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As I mentioned in my previous post, the aim of these posts will hopefully be predominantly corrections; however, I reserve the right to chase any sparkly thing! Sometimes, I believe the sparkles and corrections may converge. Sometimes, a patriot’s writing provides a number of avenues to explore. For example, one of Thomas Paine’s most famous [...]]]></description>

There is a reason for this other than laziness – it establishes, in a small way, some of the values I cherish. Christopher Hitchens, in the first article of a [...]]]></description>
