		<description><![CDATA[Here there be dragons&#8230; and plot spoilers! Proceed at your own risk. :) I&#039;m struggling through getting final papers written, and my brain needed a break&#8230; so I did a quick review of L. E. Modesitt, Jr.&#039;s The Eternity Artifact to clear my head. Whew! I needed that. Now, back to work! ;) ~ * [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Source material that is simply bad To be fair to Armstrong, I would assume much of her previously mentioned double standards arose from her source material. I do not know why she chose to lean so heavily on such dated and inaccurate material for a book written in 2006. I do not refer here to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This darkly pessimistic view on goddesses is most exemplified in Armstrong&#039;s version of the myths of Inanna. I&#039;ve had the pleasure of reading some rather good translations of these myths, translations which scholars themselves laud. Inanna, the Queen of Heaven and Earth, Love and War, is clearly a goddess of life, death, and rebirth, moving [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Blatant and inaccurate double standards As I&#039;ve previously noted, I was not happy with how the second chapter was progressing. To my increasing dismay, things only got worse: we are introduced to the so-called original &#034;High God&#034; or &#034;Sky God&#034; of the &#034;ancient Mesopotamians, Vedic Indians, Greeks and Canaanites,&#034; which is a &#034;primitive monotheism&#034; Armstrong [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The first book by Karen Armstrong which I read was A History of God: The 4,000-Year Quest of Judaism, Christianity and Islam. It was absolutely amazing to me &#8212; chock-full of new ideas, fascinating religious philosophy, and beautiful writing. Since then I have read a few others as well by Armstrong, and I was delighted [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In effect, those two verses were where the author wrote Truth as she knew it, and that&#039;s why those verses shone. Unfortunately, since we&#039;ve not yet seen the end of this conflict, and she had to describe that &#039;victory&#039; metaphorically, she couldn&#039;t write a truth for that &#8212; it hasn&#039;t happened yet. Here&#039;s the second [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Oppression &#38; technology The previously mentioned example is not the only instance of the co-existence of both a lack of, and a distinct awareness of, knowledge regarding a particular object or subject. For example, there&#039;s also how technology is treated in these prose tales. Initially there&#039;s the occasional reference to commonplace technology, although sometimes the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[(&#034;The Warrior Women&#034;) by Monique Wittig translated by David Le Vay (first reviewed April 2005) Wittig&#039;s book, quite frankly, puzzles me &#8212; or perhaps it&#039;s simply the hype which I find misplaced. I picked it up because I read it was, in 1969, one of the first appropriations of the Amazonian utopia legend by the [...]]]></description>

I have both read about, and experienced situations, where what seems like a simple and beneficial command to oneself (such as &#034;stop being afraid of riding in elevators&#034; or &#034;lose 30lbs.&#034;) can be unwittingly short-circuited by other equally strong internal desires [...]]]></description>
