Sunday Archives

I'm going to take a Sabbath rest from writing on Sundays. Most of the time I'll just keep silent. Sometimes I'll provide a link to something I've written in the past. Today falls into the latter category.

I used to write a column for the Bethel Beacon (the newspaper published by the Student Council at Bethel). It was called... ready for this... Stump Speeches. Below is a link to the first of these from the fall of 1999. It was a review of this brand new movie that was sweeping the nation: The Matrix.

My thinking about the movie has evolved since then and become more layered and complex, but I would still stand by most of what was said then. I'd be interested to hear what you think.
