Rock Beyond Belief ...

Rock Beyond Belief ...
Anyone following this? http://rockbeyondbelief.com/2011/03/07/d...-soldiers/

The word is that the Army financially supported an evangelical Rock the Fort event at Fort Bragg last year. And they have recently denied giving support to a secular gathering, Rock Beyond Belief. I'm withholding judgment awhile because I haven't confirmed for sure whether the government literally contributed funds toward the Christian event, but it's disconcerting either way.

We have lingered in the chambers of the sea | By sea-girls wreathed with seaweed red and brown | Till human voices wake us, and we drown. — T.S. Eliot

"... man always has to decide for himself in the darkness, that he must want beyond what he knows. ..." — Simone de Beauvoir

"As if that blind rage had washed me clean, rid me of hope; for the first time, in that night alive with signs and stars, I opened myself to the gentle indifference of the world. Finding it so much like myself—so like a brother, really—I felt that I had been happy and that I was happy again." — Albert Camus, "The Stranger"
