hello, what’s this?

Is this the same Calgary-based Beyond magazine that I read in junior high? It’s still around? Amazing! Has anyone read it recently? What’s it like? I remember enjoying it a great deal as a teenager, but back then I believed a lot of things I don’t now, so who knows. I really loved it, though — it was thought-provoking and loaded with truthiness. I’m normally a pack-rat when it comes to saving old magazines, I wonder if I still have some of those old copies… probably not.

I remember it being far more blatantly Christian back in the day. I’d order a subscription to find out, but just spent $25 on Geez and I don’t know if I can justify the expense right away. I’m super curious, though.

One more thing: with all my talk of feminism in the previous post, I wanted but forgot to link to an article that beautifully exposes the silliness of (most) people who claim to be not-feminists.

It is about knowing that a woman is the equal of a man in art, at work, and under the law, whether you say it out loud or not — but for God’s sake start saying it out loud already. You are a feminist.

Sarah Bunting’s Yes, You Are. Take heed, my friends.

    good quote. i would agree with that definition 100%. and say it loud.

    as for beyond, i tend to wonder if maybe you remember it more “blantantly christian” because you were ;-) . it is pretty much the same as always, and still really great. i enjoy it a great deal.

    oh, and look for the first “letters” monday or tuesday. going to that conference this weekend… should have plenty of ammo.
