Weekend tidbits
A few things of varying importance this weekend.
1. James Tabor has a good post on the Talpiot Tomb. I think his citation of J.D. Crossan and various comments on the doctrine of the Ascension belie the neutrality of his tone in this piece, but the quieter tone he uses, which he has been calling for himself, is a welcome.
2. We had a crazy storm here that has left a lot of snow.
3. "Go Big (Green) or Go Home," I guess.
4. The irony of Boisclair's racial remarks is that there is no irony. The party centralized in the most "progressive" of all provinces has a history of such remarks (JP and the 1995 referendum!). Even more terrible is the lack of response by Charest and Dumont. Honestly.

From the Societe St. Jean Baptiste to the modern Parti Quebecois, we are dealing with people who are nationalists and socialists. Were they to speak German, we would know exactly what to call them.
They hate to have that pointed out because they are pro-gay and pro-women in ways the German National Socialists were not but, one you ask yourself how many Jewish PQ members there are and you begin to see the connection.
Crusty
PS--Ethnics with money=(in Montreal at least) not Haitians, but the Jewish community from the West Island. Everybody in Quebec knows that, but no one there will talk about it. If the speaker's name was Zundel, we would throw him in jail (in fact, we just did that). Because his name in this case is Parizeau, we will not enforce the law. What hypocrisy!
