"God made a mistake"
http://www.getreligion.org/?p=412111/21/2008
Nothing stirs up as much GetReligion guilt in my heart as the arrival of a new issue of The Atlantic Monthly in my mailbox at work. Month after month, it seems that there is some giant story that I want to write about on the blog — immediately, post haste — yet it is so long
and involved that it just keeps slipping and slipping and, well, then that new issue arrives and stirs up my guilt.
The recent "A Boy's Life"
http://www.theatlantic.com/doc/200811/transgender-children by Hanna Rosin — an in-depth study of issues linked to the raising of transgender children — is a classic example of why people who love journalistic writing keep reading the Atlantic, even years after the tragic loss of super-editor Michael Kelly in Iraq.
