Linkage

Some interesting stuff I've found from surfing the Internet this week.

Link 1 : Banksy, a famous vandal in Britain who blurs the line between vandalism and art (courtesy of my roommate)

Link 2: Great post by internetmonk concerning lent. I think there's a lot of great things that evangelicals can take from Orthodoxy and Catholic traditions. The Christian calander is a great example, but it needs to be viewed in the light of the new testament. Sacraments and traditions don't provide salvation and aren't necessary, but they are still beneficial. Taking part in this aspect of Christian tradition doesn't make you a better person than those who choose not to.

Link 3: In depth discussion of Jungian types. Specifically the differences between INFP and INFJ. I know some of you might think this stuff is all hogwash, but I've found it as a helpful tool for self-evaluation. I've come to see some of my seemingly negative tendencies as a part of my self identity rather than as personal issues that I need to completely overcome (such as not being more extroverted). It's a tool for self discovery, rather than a way to pigeon hole yourself.

Link 4: Good paper on why it's a good idea to be cautious when using Jungian types for self-evaluation and why you shouldn't let personality tests pigeonhole you :P .

Link 5: Criterion is putting part of their film library online. Each month a few selected films will be available to watch for free. Signup is free, but mandatory. Definitely check it out if you're into arthouse and foreign films.

Link 6: This is scary. It kind of makes you question your entire reality. What has been there that I've just plain refused to see?
