I love my two 1 year old cats, and I want them to get the best nutrition possible. I am very confused about cat food. I have been feeding them IAMS since 8 weeks of age. Recently I have heard some bad things about the company. I am a vegetarian and very concerned about nurtition for myself and my pets. How do I find out what the best brands of cat food are? Any advice would be appreciated.

Well, they're just partly to blame. Next month the Space Shuttle Atlantis will be embarking on a mission to do repairs on the eighteen year-old Hubble Telescope. This mission might prove to be a bit tricky due to all the debris floating about in space. According to an article in the Christian Science Monitor: "The environment where the Hubble orbits, about 350 miles above the Earth’s surface, has more debris than where the International Space Station orbits and where most shuttle missions are conducted, at about 210 miles above the Earth. This “space junk” includes defunct satellites and spent rocket stages, fragments from exploded satellites, rocket engine effluents, paint flakes, and other small particles – all traveling at speeds of more than 15,000 miles per hour." That doesn't sound very good. The article goes on to say: "The problem of space junk is particularly insidious because objects in orbit that strike debris tend to create more debris, thereby increasing the risk of future impacts, which would in turn create more debris. This potential runaway feedback effect could create what’s known as the Kessler Syndrome, a scenario proposed by NASA consultant Donald J. Kessler, in which space travel, and even the use of satellites, becomes impracticable because of the high risk of collision." Could this be the beginning of the end for space travel and satellite TV? And why do humans have to pollute everything we touch? We are our worst detractors.

Since my last post I still haven't cracked open the book God Is Not Great, but the question of God's greatness has been on my mind. As I've mentioned before I am a non-practicing, non-believing Catholic, and am in no way interested in the worship of God in any way, shape or form. I am however interested in the many ways that this idea of God plays into our lives. And I am interested in the impact God has in people's lives, and humanity as whole. What does our belief in God really say about us? And does God have a place? While I was doing research on the matter, I came across a website that is dedicated to the debunking of the God-myth. I was drawn to the site for the 50 simple proofs God doesn't exist. This website is full of facts and references pertaining to theistic religions, of the mono- and poly- variety. It is in-depth to say the least. I was especially drawn to the chapters on the Bible. As a Catholic of the Latin persuasion, the Bible is pretty much off-limits. It's confusing and weird, besides, it's been my experience that Catholics are more interested in getting mass over and done with to assuage their sinful lives, than to learn about Scripture. I get the sense that there is an underlying feeling in society today that God is a tool we use when we need to fix something in ourselves, and a weapon when we want to destroy each other and justify selfish acts. As in holy wars and a little something known as the Inquisition. Am I sounding jaded?
