  (Mis)readings — Authority: 110
  This is a reply to comment by Mr. Alex Reynolds in a previous blog entry explaining my position as a fan of the Slovenian cultural theorist Slavoj Žižek.

  God in a Shrinking Universe — Authority: 92
  I just want to recommend a good short Introduction to Slavoj Zizeks thinking about Christianity: Frederiek Depoorteres book Christ in Postmodern Philosophy which treats Gianni Vattimo, René Girard and Zizek.

  Last year Bill Maher, renowned atheist and comedian released a documentary entitled Religulous . Its premise is simple: if you believe in God enough to order your behavior around your beliefs, then you are ridiculous. Perhaps you are even quite mad. This of course is why we want individuals like the Fort ...

  this side of sunday — Authority: 115
  Out of nowhere on Friday another Slavoj Zizek book jumped off the shelf at me and stole a good hour from my day. He fascinates me, and its not just because he quotes Chesterton all the time. Ive written about him before , but what got me this time was a book he co-authored with two others, called The Neighbor . ...

• How Did The New York Times Celebrate The Fall Of The Berlin Wall?

  
  The New Ledger Chequer-Board — Authority: 146
  Poorly . I would like to say that I don’t know what the Times editors were thinking, but it is in fact quite obvious what they were thinking, no? Don Boudreaux’s letter was not nearly strong enough in condemning this editorial choice.

  a few words — Authority: 107
  I woke up in Montreal this morning, and still made it back to NYC for class at 2:30 (even if a bit road-weary and goggle-eyed from the drive).

• New York Times “Celebrates” the Fall of the Berlin Wall

  
  Cato @ Liberty — Authority: 744
  In a way, I always knew it would happen. I knew that, come November 9, the left-leaning NYT would publish an article focusing on the supposed crisis of capitalism rather than the end of communist dictatorship. Still, I was not prepared for Slavoj Zizek’s op-ed entitled “ 20 Years of Collapse .” First, a few ...
