“Theological Worldview” Quiz

OK, I don’t usually do these kinds of online quizzes (which is a required disclaimer, I think), but here you go.

Oh, and for the record, I am also sceptical about spelling skeptical with a “c,” as well as sckeptickal about how “Reformed Evangelical” and “Evangelical Holiness/Wesleyan” can be so close together.

You scored as Reformed Evangelical. You are a Reformed Evangelical. You take the Bible very seriously because it is God’s Word. You most likely hold to TULIP and are sceptical about the possibilities of universal atonement or resistible grace. The most important thing the Church can do is make sure people hear how they can go to heaven when they die.

CNN.com – Pluto gets the boot – Aug 24, 2006:

Leading astronomers declared Thursday that Pluto is no longer a planet under historic new guidelines that downsize the solar system from nine planets to eight.

We’re gonna need some new anagrams.
There are a number of interesting things in the article, but one in particular that caught my eye was this:

Much-maligned Pluto doesn’t make the grade under the new rules for a planet: “a celestial body that is in orbit around the sun, has sufficient mass for its self-gravity to overcome rigid body forces so that it assumes a … nearly round shape, and has cleared the neighborhood around its orbit.”

Pluto is automatically disqualified because its oblong orbit overlaps with Neptune’s.

Wouldn’t this also disqualify Neptune? The article is unclear.

CNN.com – Spaceman spills the beans – Aug 22, 2006:

CNN.com is reporting that the name of NASA’s next manned lunar program has been accidentally revealed by ISS resident Jeff Williams:

But apparently U.S. astronaut Jeff Williams, floating 220 miles above Earth at the international space station, didn’t get the memo.

Williams let it slip Tuesday that the new vehicle’s name is Orion.

‘We’ve been calling it the crew exploration vehicle for several years, but today it has a name — Orion,’ Williams said, taping a message in advance for the space agency that was transmitted accidentally over space-to-ground radio.

Incidentally, Jeff, who is the flight engineer and science office aboard the International Space Station, has his own blog, mainly about his walk with Christ. Note the dates of his two latest entries (June 17 2006 and July 4 2006) and then note that he has been on the ISS since March, and is still there. Then think to yourself “Wow, blogging from space. How cool is that?”

This is awesome.

I’ve seen information about this research before, but someone incorporated it into their blog as a posting. Shannon read it and just about freaked out. (That’s always a good thing in my house. Or should I say, Taht’s aywlas a good tnhig in my husoe.)

Hm, this would make an interesting software project. A “still recognizable word scrambler.”

Update: Too late. Someone beat me to it: Stephen E. Sachs, “The Jumbler”
