“We pray for freedom”

Here’s a new animated video from the Muslim Network for Baha’i Rights concerning the human rights situation in Iran for everyone in general and Baha’is in particular.

We are extremely excited to release our latest video, which has been in the works for quite some time now. As we noted on our timeline, abuses against the innocent Baha’i minority in Iran have been committed for over 30 years. Inspired by the reactions of Iran’s latest election, where many Iranians took to the streets to demand change and respect for their human rights, we felt that a new video was in order, especially after this powerful video (whose chants we used in the background to one of this video’s scenes.)

Perspective and the end of human life

This week I’m hosting guest blogger Wanda Robinson, a student a La Salle University.  She’s writing about euthanasia, a topic with some bearing on the upcoming presidential election.  It’s a brief essay, but despite its brevity she manages to raise a lot of troubling questions about capitalism, relativism, logotherapy and the meaning of life, and perspective, mostly from her own personal experience.  Give it a read!
