Some Thoughts on Gay Marriage
See http://www.fordham.edu/halsall/pwh/bosrev-wilken.h... for a great summary. Jesus still defines sin as lack of love (Matthew 22:36-40). Those concerned about the sanctity of marriage should insist on outlawing adultery, divorce and abortion. All are sinful because each has an unloved victim. Marriage must be for love, not pregnancy. What is unloving about a couple in a homosexual love relationships? Neither is victim, neither is unloved. Where is the hurt? Who is the victim being sinned against? The Gospel writers and prophets do not mention homosexuality because it is not a sin. The King James Version comes closest to a correct translation of two condemning nouns used in Leviticus 18:22 — "sexual immorality". That is not necessarily homosexuality. ("Homosexual" was coined about 1865, so any translation using a form of that word is a lie that needs to be emended.
Poets, Painters, and Portfolio Managers
David Landau came to Bard College intending to spend his undergraduate years sharpening his creative writing skills and immersing himself in the works of authors such as F. Scott Fitzgerald and Jack Kerouac. His plans changed when he learned last fall that the school planned to create a new economics and finance dual-degree undergraduate program. The five-year program would allow him to pursue a Bachelor of Arts in literature and writing, while simultaneously obtaining a Bachelor of Science degree in economics and finance. For Landau, also a math enthusiast, it was a tempting idea, one he never imagined he'd be able to take advantage of at a school like Bard, more known for its Shakespeare and theater classes than business offerings. "When I saw this program open up, I got very excited.

Wexner snags acts on verge of greatness
Before she became an unlikely iPod spokeswoman, a little-known singer named Leslie Feist was on Chuck Helm's radar. The indie-folk songstress from Canada would make a perfect fit for the arty, in-the-know crowd that frequents the Wexner Center for the Arts, he thought. "I just kind of had a feeling she was breaking at that point," said Helm, director of performing arts at the center. Three months ago, he booked Feist for next Sunday as part of the "Next @ Wex" concert series -- which highlights up-and-coming musical acts. He turned out to be prophetic: Soon after, the Feist song 1234 appeared in an Apple commercial, and the singer performed on Saturday Night Live and catapulted into the musical mainstream. Thanks to mounting buzz for Feist (and the center's intensive marketing efforts in blog, print and TV media), the show is almost sold out.
