VATICAN CITY (AP) — Pope Francis has warned that the Catholic Church's moral structure might "fall like a house of cards" if it doesn't balance its divisive rules about abortion, gays and contraception with the greater need to make it a merciful, more welcoming place for all.

How Venture Capitalists Plan to Destroy the College Classroom, Sept 18, 2013
"We’re one step closer to making it socially acceptable to be a college dropout without a real job. At the beginning of September, Stanford announced a fundamentally new type of financial arrangement, in which it would become a VC investor in companies run by students and alumni through the StartX start-up accelerator. Even before that, Stanford appeared to encourage more than a dozen students to drop out and partner with Stanford faculty members to launch a new tech start-up. Is Stanford still a university? As Kevin Roose of New York magazine succinctly answers, “Stanford is now basically a VC fund with some dorms.” " info@als-alexander.org or interalex1@yahoo.com
But How do You KNOW That You Know? Sept 18, 2013
"I’d wager that most of us tend to think we know, rather than believe, things like where we were born or what profession we’re in. I’d go further, still, and claim that most of us are emotionally invested in there being a clear demarcation between what we believe and what we know, and wouldn’t take at all kindly to being told that the most fundamental facts of our personal identity lie, in fact, somewhere along the spectrum of belief from total guesswork to convincing, evidence-based certainty.
