I just watched and listened to something I can't believe is happening. In a country where we have the 9th Circus court telling us we can't say "Under GOD" in the pledge of allegiance, we have state funded universities making it mandatory that all incoming Freshman read the "koran". Somebody help me understand why North Carolina would make this a mandatory study. Here we are going out of our way to take GOD out of everything possible but yet we let the islamic terrorist "peaceful" religion a mandatory read. I'm so mad I can't even write this peace coherently right now.
It's obvious after last year's 8-20 (or so) record that no one is going to UNC to get the best basketball tickets. At least for now, the best basketball tickets in the area are about 12 miles down the road in Durham.
Of course the Dukie professors are not any less liberal than what you find in Chapel Hill.
The Constitution guaranties freedom of religion, not freedom from religion.

Here Sells defends Islam and slams Christianity AFTER the 9/11 terrorists event:
The link above includes this gem:
...but Timothy McVeigh was almost never (and never to my knowledge) called a Christian terrorist, even though he was living out a fantasy of the Christian Identity movement ...
A total lie. McVeigh was an agnostic, not part of any "Christian Identity" movements, as is well documented.
Sells defends Bosnian Muslims and bashes Christianity in general here:
Mutt America, The Religio-Racist Right, and Genocide in the Balkans
A translation of the Koran is available free online as well, here.
I also bought The Fecderalist Papers, which I never read before. I'm saving it for the five-hour plane trip from Boston to FRiva Las Vegas.
Lord of the Rings is due out on DVD on August 6, so I'll probably be watching that on the flight from DFW to Lost Wages for the Friva.
