Pariser mentioned in passing that the Internet’s “founding mythology” promised a world of people who were more connected to one another, but he complained that this hasn’t actually happened. It hasn’t happened because that’s only what people publicly say they want. What they privately, or subconsciously, desire is what these companies are giving them: new ways to separate themselves from others and form competing identity groups. Marketing people are better psychologists than psychologists.
Like Patrick Bateman, people say they care about “ending hunger” and genocide and so forth, but they don’t really care about people dying in Africa. Not in any personal, emotionally connected way. The concern they express is a social affectation. If Robin Dunbar is to be believed, we can’t care about people in Africa. Not really. It’s been found that, even on Facebook, most of us can only maintain a meaningful friendship with 150 or so people. Everyone else is a virtual friend—or a virtual stranger. Our brains are wired for small communities, not “one world tribe.”
We seek out ways to create in-groups and out-groups. Sometimes we do this playfully, as with sporting rivalries, though it is not unusual for sports fans to become violent or angry on behalf of their teams. Often we do it politically, ideologically, socially, racially, nationally. We form philosophical cliques and movements. East coast vs. West coast, South side vs. North side, Greeks vs.Trojans, boys against the girls, Democrats vs. Republicans, MoveOn vs. The Tea Party, Christians vs. Muslims vs. Jews, hip-hop vs. punk rock vs. emo, dog lovers vs. cat lovers, Ford vs. Chevy, and Mac vs. PC.
Online social networks have also created a pathway for otherwise average people to separate themselves from the social norms of their geographical location.

Japanese scientist creates edible meat alternative made from recycled human waste
Japanese Scientists Create Meat From Poop: "Because Tokyo Sewage asked him to. Tokyo is swimming in sewage mud, it seems, and there's only one way it can save itself and that's eat it."
Really? There is no other way to recycle the "waste"? Tokyo needs to take bigger steps towards sustainability. How much energy is required by the process of creating this "food product"?

Fr. Z: About Fr. John Corapi with observations about our times
Well, it's too late for me to heed Father's advice. And I have some additional thoughts from me: Fr. Corapi may be thinking that he doing the work of God and helping others. I do not think that it is a question of making a living for himself, since despite his suspension, he is being supported by his religious community? Or am I wrong about that, and he is without any means of support? Would his vows prevent him from taking a "normal" job? And is he truly in a canonical limbo without any redress under canonical law?
I don't think Fr. Corapi or anyone associated with him will be reading this. I hope, though, he will reconsider his decision, as it seems to be a cause for scandal.

Are we to have no heroes?
Read some disturbing allegations against Fr. Marie-Dominique Philippe, O.P. Having seen no evidence to back up the charge or heard the testimony of supposed witnesses, how can I not be skeptical? Was an investigation launched by the local ordinary, his Dominican superiors, or Rome? Those who came out against Fr. Maciel approached various authorities. (And remember, he was also investigated in the 50s.) Is this true of former members of the Community of St. John?

Fr. Corapi's announcement
I've written very little about the accusations against Fr. Corapi at this point -- if you want you can find the info online. Fr. Corapi has released a statement as to his plans for the future.
The announcement on the blog.
Many who have benefited from his preaching are shocked and saddened by what is going on. Some have expressed dismay and disappointment, either with the bishop or with Fr. Corapi (sometimes it isn't clear). My own thoughts -- I find his decision to become an underground minister baffling. It is understandable that he cannot exercise public duties as a priest because of his suspension. But it would seem that no one is so important that God cannot do without him. If Fr. Corapi is a victim of injustice, cannot he appeal it to Rome? If that is not fruitful, or if he has no other course of action to take with respect to the Church, then maybe he is being called to suffer as a victim of injustice. Wouldn't this be the opportunity for him to just be a hermit? (I thought he had professed this desire often.)
God's saving action is greater than one man (or ego). Can it truly be the case that God wants someone to operate outside the bounds of the Church? Should not a minister always be under ecclesial authority, no matter how unjust a bishop is acting, and if he is unjustly deprived of his office should he not resign him to the fact? It seems to me that this is the preferred course of action for the saints of the Church?
Baffling. Let us pray for him.

It's pathetic
that being a consumer and doing some shopping counts for being "productive" for me. Went to Korea House for lunch, the quality of the kalbi was very bad today, bad enough to make me not want to go again. Has the restaurant changed owners again? Afterwards, I dropped by Nikaku in San Jose's Japantown. How long before the neighborhood becomes a relic of the past and of interest only for tourists and office workers in the area who want Japanese food for lunch? How many Japanese(-Americans) actually live within the vicinity of Japantown? How long before the demographic crush of the area north of downtown San Jose overtakes Japantown?
Nikaku hasn't changed much since I last visited (2 or 3 years ago?). But the store seems to have reduced its inventory and isn't purchasing many new items? The online catalog hasn't been updated for some time. Will the anime store eventually be phased out?
I dropped by Kinokuniya SJ afterward to see what was new. (It didn't have the items I was looking for, so I'll have to go to the one in SF again.) The Mitsuwa shopping plaza is being renovated -- I can't tell if they're expanding Mitsuwa. (I still remember when it was Yaohan.) Someone did a vlog of the shopping center last year.

Tickets are $85 each until a certain date, later in July, after which they will be $100 each. I haven't decided if I'll be going or not. Most of my friends will not be there, so what's the point. Of the rest of my graduating class, I do not think there would be many who'd be all that interested in catching up.

Peak credit and a flight to simplicity by Chris Cook
Asia Times - from 2008; apparently someone on FB thinks it is helpful for understanding the global economy now.
Peak Oil - the theory that we may be at or near a peak level of oil production - while remaining controversial is at least now respectable. But is the continuing credit crash masking another inconvenient truth? Might banks now be experiencing the aftermath of peak credit?

One of the callers to this afternoon's show with Dr. Fleming referred to the American "superstate." I think calling it the American empire has some advantages, as the word "empire" has associations with regards to the internal organization and also to the conduct of its foreign affairs. I think another caller (or maybe the same caller) broached the topic of home rule. (The Illinois State Constitution.) The 2 hours were much too short.

The Archdruid Report: Profligacies of Scale
The Archdruid Report: Profligacies of Scale: "Technology, for a great people nowadays, is their source of meaning and their hope of salvation. Most liberals, conservatives, atheists, and plenty of people who think they belong to some other religion all put their trust in the great god Progress and wait prayerfully for him to bring a future that, they insist, must be better than the present. However poorly founded that faith may be, it plays an immensely important role in today’s industrial cultures, and the death of Progress in our time thus bids fair to deal the same shattering blow to our present certainties that the death of God announced by Nietzche measured out to te equally comfortably certainties of the nineteenth century."
Lewis McCrary on single-sex dorms
Should Coed College Dorms Cause an Uproar?
I think Mr. McCrary is correct in his claim that single-sex dorms are just one step in reforming university life, but what is needed is a conversion of hearts. It used to be that universities would act in loco parentis. Perhaps it is time for Catholic universities to shore up the authority of parents and push for relocalization. But first they'd have to agree on the purpose of a university education...
