This web site is very flashy, but it talks about an interesting fact about Machen that I never knew. He was a libertarian.

Now I have to get dressed and head to church. :-)

I just watched the tribute to the Pentagon Victims. That was beautiful.

From that site:

I almost feel as though I were in some kind of penal institution. I feel somewhat as I do when I am in Los Angeles or any of the over-regulated cities of the West, where pedestrians meekly wait around on the street comers for non-existent traffic and cross the streets only at the sound of the prison gong."

LOL

(I use Avant Browser, and it enables me to turn off the flashing. That's good -- because I was getting HYP-MO-TIZED!)

Say, that's a great little article! Thanks for pointing me to it.

From that article once again, I love this admiring tribute from Pearl Buck, whom Machen opposed assiduously:

"He stood for something and everyone knew what it was."

Not a bad epitaph, eh?
