I’ve Moved!
November 20, 2008
So I’m sure that most people have noticed that the site has been offline for a few days. There’s a reason for that, which I will get to shortly. But first, let me just say this:
In fact, I am blogging at a new site I have just finished setting up: kennethhynek.net. A full explanation for the reasons behind the move can be found here
.
That said, this is not the end of Time Immortal. My wife Grace has expressed interest in taking over blogging at this domain, and I am working to make sure that she gets set up here as soon as possible.
Also, my profound apologies for the modification to the site face; the move was not as seamless as I would have hoped, and many of the image files for this theme, and in the gallery, were corrupted during the course of their evacuation from my previous web host’s servers. Until such time as I have repaired them, I’ve put a clean-looking template in place of the previous one.
Update: for the purposes of further traffic shaping, new posts from kennethhynek.net will be excerpted below. Full articles can be read at the new blog.
Atheist attacks Christians, loses eye
September 15, 2008
A man who threatened to behead two women because they were Christians was attacked in self-defense early Saturday and injured so severely, police say, that his eye was to be removed.
Russell Bowman, who called himself an atheist, showed up with a large knife at the women’s apartment in the 700 block of Tia Juana Street about 3:15 a.m., police said.
Another resident grabbed a shotgun and ordered him to put the knife down. When Bowman refused and began approaching, the person hit him with the butt end of the weapon, police said.
This apparently happened in Colorado Springs, by the way.
Now, given the level of vitriol I’m used to seeing where internet atheists are concerned, I can’t say I’m surprised that an atheist took it upon himself — evidently while drunk — to attack Christians. Truth be told, I’ve always expected it would come to that. Of course, this being the United States, someone just happened to have a shotgun handy, and used it to good effect.
It’s rather a shame that Bowman will lose his eye as a result of the injuries he has sustained, but I can’t say I have a great wealth of sympathy for him. That’s what happens when you attack someone: they defend themselves. And if they defend better than you attack, well…
