MarriageDebate is hosting a debate on the effects of same-sex marriage on religious freedom. Lots of really interesting stuff–Maggie Gallagher, Anthony Picarello of the Becket Fund, Jonathan Rauch, and others. Really worth your time.

Go here for lots of information about the recent arrests of Egyptian dissidents, including specific thoughts on what us Amurricans can do. (Link via the Anglican WebElves.)
