Drones Minutes: Saturday, February 11, 2006

We talked about: Don't confuse talent with virture, e.g. Lance Armstong, The Rolling Stones. Whether a group is local or global they seem to have a similar belief that their version of the truth is not only accurate, but should be viewed as correct by all others groups. C.S. Lewis' comment on what belief is: "Belief, in this sense, seems to be assent to a proposition which we think so overwhelmingly probable that there is a psychological exclusion of doubt, though not a logical exclusion of dispute."-They Asked for a Paper.

Drones Minutes: Saturday, February 4, 2006

We talked about: What's the difference between admiration and ogling? Oscar nominations for 'Best Film', vs Top Ten Box Office Films. Is winning $70,000,000 a good thing? Evan tries to explain the Tao, the Intermediate Way, the Groove to no good effect. Ireland's Breakfast will be Saturday the 25th of February after Drones.
