Christian Solidarity International<\/b>: Attempts to refute charges<\/a> that many \u201credeemed\u201d (=bought and freed) slaves in Sudan and Mauritania were actually faking enslavement to get money. Haven\u2019t read the documents yet, will report back when I get a chance, but for the moment I\u2019ll just repeat the basic reason to mistrust CSI on this one: Supply and demand. If you pay for slaves, as the \u201credeemers\u201d do (and as the US\u2019s underground railroad did not), you create a demand for either real or fake slaves. Most likely both. CSI, therefore, bears the burden of proof here. Their claim is usually that since slavery is being used as a tool of war by Sudan\u2019s vicious Islamist government against its mainly-animist-partly-Christian southern region, economics aren\u2019t driving the slavers. OK, but economic motivations don\u2019t disappear just because other motivations are present. Again, I\u2019ll read these documents, but I\u2019m entering with some skepticism. I know that many real slaves have been freed through CSI, and that\u2019s obviously a wonderful accomplishment. But it\u2019s necessary to investigate whether slaves can be freed in a way that doesn\u2019t <\/i>create incentives to enslave more people. In the end, I doubt that anything short of toppling the Khartoum government will stop enslavement in Sudan; I don\u2019t know enough about Mauritania to say anything about it.<\/p>\n

Michael Dubruiel<\/b>: Second<\/a> in an amazingly depressing series about Dubruiel\u2019s seminary education. Essential reading in understanding the Catholic crisis.<\/p>\n

Glenn Kinen<\/b>: Interesting stuff<\/a> on US vs. European consumption of OPEC oil.<\/p>\n

Father Shawn O\u2019Neal<\/b>: Good post<\/a> about trusting one another rather than being constantly on the lookout for lapses in orthodoxy. I think he\u2019s being a little harsh on suspicious people\u2013I get the impression that many of these people have been deeply disappointed by a series of Catholic institutions, and that\u2019s why they\u2019re wary. However, his general point is right.<\/p>\n

Sursum Corda <\/b><\/a>has become a must-read for me. Everything today is good: Graham Greene and the Eucharist; what Jesus\u2019s knowledge means for our faith; just war vs. holy war; and much more. Only quarrel: A list of bad Western exports that equates weaponry, porn, and McDonalds<\/a> is just silly. Explain to me why cheap, reliable, yummy food is a bad thing. But really, the site is awesome, go read it.<\/p>\n

Amy Welborn<\/b><\/a>: Lots and lots of St. Catherine of Siena on the Current Crisis.<\/p>\n

And the Washington Post Magazine<\/i> has an interesting article on the materialist world of The Sims<\/a>.<\/p>\n
