Heard this on satellite radio this morning. This is a TED talk by David Brooks. Although not intended as an Easter message, it certainly seems appropriate. It's only 5 minutes.

Video.

Damn Jeaux. Being one of the resident liberals on this board I'm surprised you have not discovered ted.com.

Check it out...lots of good speeches.

Brooks is a good writer. But the link is boring. Short version: "Goodness is better than Badness." You just wasted 5 minutes of my life and I want it back.

I thought TED was supposed to be towering intellects.

WTF David Brooks? Isn't he the NYT house "conservative"?

Yep. He is not a conservative. I highly recommend his book "Bobos in Paradise" which is sociology and a great read if you're interested in the differences between generations.

When he went to the NYT he moved from moderate to left.
