While the ancient Egyptians - and later the Greeks - viewed the heart as the soul's throne, the Old Testament solidified it as the body's intellectual center, or its nexus of rational thought. With the decree "Love the Lord your god with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might," the Old Testament also brought the heart a new master. The bequeathing of man's metaphorical heart to God meant that earthly love was to be viewed as base, a betrayal of man's obligation to his one true Lord. It wasn't until nearly 1,000 years later, when the troubadour William LX, Duke of Aquitaine (1071-1127) began singing bawdy tales of courtly love between the sexes, that man again wrested his heart from God's clutches to be offered up in the earthly world. This notion of courdy love - ...

REPUBLICANS appear to be in disarray. President Bush's Iraq war, entered into on the basis of lies, requires fluctuating rationales. American soldiers and Iraqis die without any end in sight. Bush's response to Hurricane Katrina and that of his appointed incompetents was crudely unsympathetic. Key members of his administration appear likely to be indicted for criminal activities and cover-ups having to do with attacking someone who exposed the administration's false reasons for the war in Iraq. (Republicans, who waxed wroth about Bill Clinton's lie about sex, are suddenly less judgmental.) Bush's most recent nomination to the Supreme Court seems, at minimum, to be unqualified.
