Brit Hume on why he’s retiring:
I certainly want to pursue my faith more ardently than I have done. I’m not claiming it’s impossible to do when you work in this business. I was kind of a nominal Christian for the longest time. When my son died (by suicide in 1998), I came to Christ in a way that was very meaningful to me. If a person is a Christian and tries to face up to the implications of what you say you believe, it’s a pretty big thing. If you do it part time, you’re not really living it.
From another interview:
And since my son died, I have been, really, I felt rescued by God and by Christ. I have an intense desire to pursue that more ardently and have it be a bigger part of my life than it has been.

In response to our recent podcast, Sniping for Christ, Seminarian writes:
"Are we giving young adults and men further justification that they do not need to grow up? Later, an assertion is made that 'Movies touch on the deep things of life.' Sure, they might, but for many we would have to expose ourselves to sin first, and most teens don’t sit and ponder the questions afterwards anyway."

I don’t know anything about Brit Hume. I do know enough about Fox News not to watch it. But my only comment is this:
AudioSurf is on super discount on Steam right now for only $2.50. (This week only!) You haven’t had any gaming posts recently or I’d have posted the news there.

Just to give this added pop culture significance, I just played a course built off a chapter from Obama’s Audacity of Hope. Kinda weird. And I’m the only person so far to have played AudioSurf to that particular chapter. I guess this is one way to get through the whole book on mp3…
