    EQUAL Views for October 7, 2008

    October 7th, 2008 by Joe Perez

    Welcome to “EQUAL Views: Every Quadrant Under a Lense”, a new daily column at Joe-Perez.com.

    Inquiry: What’s Going On?
    Matthew Fox, a male feminist who rediscovered the noble warrior: “It’s time for men to grow up spiritually.” Marc Ambinder on John McCain: “Hector the Projector”. … Johnah Lehrer: This election’s a contest between two modes of decision-making, one dominated by trusting in gut instincts and the other by “metacognition” or the “art of self-overhearing”, the ability to think about your thinking. Geneticist: “Human evolution is over.” The two key factors: younger fathers and declining childhood mortality. … The New York Timeshow a presidential candidate’s height and weight correlate to victory, in graphic form. … Swallow or spit? Protect yourself from the risks of oral sex. Conclusion: “Swallow or spit, just don’t let it sit.”
    Desmond Tutu interview on KOUW“This is a moral universe… Perhaps all Christians should be pacifists. But I am not a pacifist.” If all religionists were pacifists, how might the world be different? … Joe Klein on the McCain sleaze: “A desperate empty embarrassment.” … Ezra Kline: If McCain loses, America will repudiate the “nothingburger” politics of diversion. … Jay Leno: O.J. stands for “overdue justice.”  Gender Income Disparity: after a sex change, men who became women earned 32% less income; women who became men earned more. … Asia Times: Rich Asians don’t lend to poor Asians, preferring to invest in societies with a long cultural tradition of grassroots political reformers.How bad is habitat loss? Half of all mammals face decline; a quarter face extinction.
