a facebook-style frontend for wikipedia

While encyclopedia.cjb.com contains just the basics, hopefully you will find that it contains information that is not available or not as readily available at other sites. One way to think of this page is as a myspace/facebook style front end to wikipedia.

encyclopedia.cjb.com is the encyclopedia written by a computer programmer. Therefore most of it is generated by a computer program. The program is written in the python programming language. The program is adapted just slightly from one found on the Linux Gazette webzine. Information on that program and its input files is available at input.cjb.com. That site also contains a link to the first encyclopedia.cjb.com web page with has a date stamp of 1998(12/16).

THINGS SECTION
While people and places are big categories, things is a huge category. So I will stick to things of interest to me, making this more of an editorial section. If this page ever becomes more popular and starts 'paying its own way' this editorial portion will probably be moved to another location.

BlackBerry	Borders	Eddie Bauer	Marriage	Route 66

One of the main things that I'm interested in is marriage and how I believe it is under attack particularly within the church and particularly within the evangelical church. I won't say much more than that at the moment, but below are some quotes I thought were good.

	But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin. (1 JN 1:7)(ESV)		I will remain in the world no longer, but they are still in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, protect them by the power of your name-the name you gave me-so that they may be one as we are one. (JN 17:11)(NIV)
	Martin Luther as quoted by Philip Melanchthon. "Hier stehe ich. Ich kann nicht anders. Gott helfe mir. Amen." ("Here I stand; I can do no other. God help me.")		Doctrine affects behavior.
	Below is what this wikipedia.com article refers to as Lord Acton's 'most famous pronouncement'. I refer to it as the PCAPCA quote (Power Corrupts, Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutly). Although the quote is often used in a political context, the wikipedia.com article referenced above indicates the original context was more religious. More of his quotes (including different versions of this one) are here at brainyquote.com. "And remember, where you have a concentration of power in a few hands, all too frequently men with the mentality of gangsters get control. History has proven that. All power corrupts; absolute power corrupts absolutely."
	This quote (or poem) is so famous it has it's own wikipedia article here. The poem is usually attributed to Martin Niem”ller (in fact his wikipedia article says it is what he is best known for). However he himself said he isn't sure when he said it. See below from the wikipedia article. "... Niem”ller said he was not quite sure when he had said the famous words but, if people insist upon citing them, he preferred this version: In Germany, they came first for the Communists, And I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist; And then they came for the trade unionists, And I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist; And then they came for the Jews, And I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew; And then . . . they came for me . . . And by that time there was no one left to speak up."
	"It seems that nothing is more difficult for the average man to bear than the feeling of not being identified with a larger group. However much a German citizen may be opposed to the principles of Nazism, if he has to choose between being alone and feeling that he belongs to Germany, most persons will choose the latter."
	The following is a quote from the Erwin Lutzer's book Hitler's Cross. I believe it shows how psychology can be a big influence in the evangelical church today. "Jacques Ellul in The Subversion of Christianity wrote, 'Each generation thinks it has finally discovered the truth....Christianity becomes an empty bottle that successive cultures fill with all kinds of things.'3 Regrettably, the Christian bottle has been filled with many different agendas. Early in the history of the church, the Cross was obscured by sacramentalism, the idea that salvation was a grace given through the rituals of the church. Salvation was no longer a personal relationship with God, but was reduced to partnership with the ecclesiastical structure. ... Today the bottle of Christianity is often filled with psychology. Since Freud, the need for a religious conversion has been eliminated. Secular psychology denies that man fell from some previous state of holiness. Since he has not fallen, he has no need to be picked up, at least not by God. Salvation is simply a matter of having a healthy self-image.
