		<description><![CDATA[The atonement is the single greatest event in history, nothing else even compares, and as the single most important and relevant event in each of our own individual lives, it deserves our attention.
Unfortunately, amongst the various Christian denominations, there are lots of differences and views about the atonement, and many inaccurate understandings of how, exactly, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For those of you who don&#8217;t know what twitter is - it&#8217;s a micro-blogging platform.  Whereas with a blog you post fewer, but longer articles, on Twitter you post a lot more frequent (and vastly smaller) ideas, thoughts, and ramblings throughout the day.  Each &#8220;post&#8221; in twitter is called a &#8220;tweet&#8221;.  Cute eh?

		<description><![CDATA[Between 1915 and 1926, but especially in 1920, a plague swept the world.  They called it &#8220;Encephalitis lethargica&#8221;, also called &#8220;sleepy sickness&#8221; or &#8220;sleeping sickness&#8221;.
