Two Things I Saw Today That I Liked

(OK, smartarse, you try coming up with clever titles all the time)

First off, my old chum Alex manages to put things much as I would hope to do on the subject of rationality and religion (although my own position is even more Dawkinsite than his).

Secondly, Blood & Treasure links to a remarkable painting which reminds me not only of Peter Blake's artwork for Sgt. Pepper but also of Paul Kidby's cover for Terry Pratchett's Night Watch (which itself was a parody of Rembrandt's painting of the same name).
