	<title>Echo Of Eden: Digest</title>
	<link>http://www.echoofeden.com/digest</link>
	<description>This site is created to reinforce the belief that man is a spiritual and physical union, where faith and reason work together, and where the elements of our humanity are an extension of one another.  The title, Echo of Eden, conveys that we are other than what we should be, yet restoration is not far.</description>

		<description><![CDATA[
If any man has uttered the [Most] Venerable Name even though frivolously, or as a result of shock or for any other reason whatsoever, while reading the Book or blessing, he shall be dismissed and shall return to the Council of the Community no more.

		<title>Dearth of Biblical DSS in English</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Is anyone else frustrated with the lack of English translations of the BIBLICAL Dead Sea Scrolls? Currently, so it seems, The Dead Sea Scrolls Bible is the only book in existence that offers the BIBLICAL DSS in English. Don&#8217;t get me wrong, it is an incredible book. A prize of my collection.

		<title>How Is CAD Referenced?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Most articles in the monumental Chicago Assyrian Dictionary are now available online. This is a wonderful resource. And it is even more wonderful that it is freely available.

		<title>Faking Evidence</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I find it quite disheartening to see that scientists have had to stoop so low to prove their theories instead of allowing the data to speak for it self. This is a black moment for all scientists, that will have long lasting effects across the aisle. It also makes one wonder where else in the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Warning: Major spoilers. Do not read if you have any desire to ever watch the show.
After viewing the show I had been waiting for ever since theories began circulating about a remake of the classic Prisoner series, I scoured the web to gauge what sorts of impressions, thoughts, and perspectives it was creating among the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Personal And Social Salvation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
The separation of personal from social salvation made it possible for Bible-believing slave traders to conduct daily devotions on ships carrying human cargo like cattle.
Dale Brown, Biblical Pacifism: A Peace Church Perspective, p. 141

As a Mennonite, I really resonate with the message of this quote. It reminds me that the gospel message can be narrowed [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
He [a man] may not enter into the Temple Mount with his staff or his sandal or his wallet, or with the dust upon his feet, nor may he make of it a short by-path; still less may he spit there.

Man is bound to bless [God] for the evil even as he blesses [God] for the good, for it is written, And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul and with all thy might (Deut 6:5). With all thy heart—with both thine impulses, thy good impulse [...]]]></description>
