I HAVE AN EASTER challenge for Christians. My challenge is simply this: tell
me what happened on Easter. I am not asking for proof. My straightforward

怀疑者的八大质疑(七下) “教会历史充满压迫与暴力”
编者注: 这一系列文章是改编自 李·史特博(Lee Strobel)所著的《为何说‘不’?
— 基督信仰再思》(The Case for Faith). 史特博是耶鲁大学法学硕士, 美国著名日
报《芝加哥论坛报》屡获新闻奖的法庭与法事资深记者和编辑, 并在罗斯福大学任教.
他曾是个不信神的怀疑者, 极力反对基督信仰. 但他因着妻子1979年信主后人品和性格
的改变而对基督信仰开始改观. 他要找出有没有可靠的证据, 证明耶稣是神的儿子. 为
了证实四福音的可靠性, 并主耶稣受死和复活的真实性, 他以两年时间访查13位美国著
名圣经学者, 向他们提出怀疑派常问的尖锐问题. 结果是: 在证据确凿, 无懈可击的情
况下, 他于1981年11月8日, 真诚地认罪悔改, 接受主耶稣基督为他的救主. 他把访查
实录写于《重审耶稣》(The Case for Christ)一书中.
信主后的史特博读了不少质疑基督信仰的书籍和文章, 包括一本题为《告别上帝: 我摒
弃基督信仰的理由》的书. 此书作者坦布尔顿(Charles Templeton)本是... 阅读全帖

内容提要:在中国社会经济史学界,“加州学派”近年来影响日益扩大,其观点正
变得日益清晰和引人瞩目。“加州学派”并不是一个无差别的整体,而是不同国别、不
同研究领域、不同方法 论背景的学者的聚合,他们既有相似的理论诉求,又各自发掘
着独特的研究思路。“加州学派”关注中国研究是要在一个更加宏大的全球视角中看待
中国问题;他们 强调中国经济曾经有过的发展,是为了去除中西二元对立,揭示出中
国历史独特的发展逻辑;“加州学派”未来的发展尚未确定,为其下定论还为时尚早。
“加州学 派”现有研究成果大多向15-19世纪集中;宏大的历史视角和单因素比较使其
历史叙述稍显粗糙;新的研究范式难以置换已有的研究结论。因此,他们的观点经 常
受到学者的质疑。国内学界和“加州学派”所进行的中国社会经济史研究各有价值,应

there is no concrete evidence for global warming.
even if there is global warming, it is not clear how much human activities
contributed to it.
even if it is resulted from human activities, it is not necessarily a bad
thing. every year more people die of cold temperature than high temperature.

来自主题: Statistics版 - 伪科学卫道士——方舟子
读了人物专访——方舟子论基督教后,形成了关于他的这么一个观点,理由是,
人类的现代科学文明是且只能诞生于基督教文明区而非任何其它文明区。基督教对人类
科学与哲学的推动是双向的,既从正面促进,也从反面激励。反观其它历史文明形态和
宗教文明区,都没有,也无可能导致现代科学文明的诞生。
NanoSpeed (纳米速度) [FROM: 24.151.]反驳我说:如果教会烧死布鲁诺是推动

我对此的回答是:如果现代科学体系及其方法论诞生在非基督教文明区,那么方
舟子可能对了。遗憾的是,现代科学及其方法论体系的诞生与基督教文明区的历史关系
是唯一的相关性。四大古文明,尤其是从未中断过的中华文明的历史对此作了极好的注

任何运动,都不是横空出世的。占领花街(OWS)也是,美国左翼也是做了大量的工作
,特别是通过电影和书籍。
比如说,Matrix(特指第一部),就深刻揭露了资本主义制度对人类的控制机制。而这
部电影又是改编自Jean Baudrillard的那本很薄的书simulacra and simulation,电影
里也出现过这本书,好像是先知手里拿着。Baudrillard自己也是深受马克思主义影响。
但是对华尔街的深入批判所产生的明显效果,还是集中出现在08年次贷危机之后。毕竟
,事实最能教育人民。应该说,在08年之前,好莱坞就已经拍出了一些讽刺华尔街的优
秀作品,例如著名戏剧演员金凯利(Jim Carrey)主演的喜剧《Fun with Dick and
Jane》(2005),讽刺了WorldCom,安然。
到了08年之后,好莱坞的电影批判的深度加强了,例如卡麦隆的3D巨片,阿凡达,揭露

标 题: 支持进化论证据太多了,科学和宗教的本质区别
发信站: BBS 未名空间站 (Fri Apr 15 01:57:12 2011, 美东)
看到前面一帖子,5岁孩子好奇人类的起源,妈妈说不清楚,然后有些回帖质疑进化论。
忍不住另外开一贴说几句,
对生物起源等问题保持open的态度和好奇心是好事,对孩子也确实不必要一味地灌输知
识和结论,而是应该启发他们思考。
以上都是科学的态度, 科学和宗教的根本区别就是,科学是不claim绝对真理的,科学
是不断前进发展的,人类的知识在科学证实的过程中日益壮大,科学在证伪的过程中比
以往任何时候都更接近真相,推陈出新。
持科学的态度去看待细节还没有被完全复现和解释的问题,比如生物起源,并不表示可
以无根据地虚无地对被广泛证实的进化论本身持怀疑态度。

姚新宇律师: 关于奥巴马连任对在美华人的影响
作者:姚新宇律师 发文时间: 2012年11月09日 22:18:19

首先声明,这篇文章完全是我个人的看法,和我做律师业务没有关系。请大家理性看待。
奥巴马成功连任,值得祝贺,虽然在加州那一票没什么用,但还是表达了自己的支持,
晚上还喝了瓶啤酒。这本来是自己的私人事情。 但最近看到,有些人在大面积的攻击
虽然,现在年末快过节了,案子非常忙,我还是简单表达一下个人看法。
我认为, 奥巴马成功连任对在美华人无疑有很大好处。

美国媒体从来不是真正左派
西方正真左派比如法国罗兰巴特,福柯,美国詹姆逊,乔姆斯基等等
都是以批判资本主义文化体系为己任
西方马克思主义在学院里一直很有影响力
女权,反殖,反帝,反剥削理论都是经常讨论的
象罗兰巴特写的Le mythe aujourd'hui
用日常生活例子分析西方文化中民主国家机器媒体怎么撒谎,又怎么去中性化他们的谎言
美国报纸媒体是个非常奇怪怪胎
从资本家来说
他们需要读者观众,要展现左派一面
赚钱同时需要立个道德牌坊
从媒体从业人员来说
一方面这些人受到学院左派思想影响
一方面他们服务于大资本家,所以本质上还是右派
涉及美国国家利益或者涉及世界问题报道
这些人右派面目就显示出来。
真左左派一直代表被边缘化阶层,
在资本主义,基督教,帝国主义的右派势力控制权力美国
需要左派势力平衡
值得奇怪是一些在美国被边缘化的黄皮
却恶毒攻击左派,自作多情地贴着冷屁股以为自己是右派的战友
自己及其子孙天天被歧视,
却具有右派的思想
在生物界很难找到如此愚蠢的物种
华人以为自己被黑人福利剥削了
