Is this the future of blogging?

I hope not.

Hinderaker is charmed, Sissy Willis is not amused, by efforts to get bloggers behind Bob Geldof's latest glamor-charity push, this one aimed at curing all of Africa's ills.

Considering the kind of dictators and genocides that seem to crop up there all the time, it's a tall order. I don't generally trust famous philanthropists to decide what is good for society's ills. I doubt that Geldof will support assassinating Robert Mugabe, but that would be a good start. I think the best thing for Africa is already underway: the Christianization of its inhabitants. Despite what the Democrats and the MSM say, Christianity today has more in common with Christ's original message than at any time in its history. It has survived in spite of its being co-opted by human rulers and power politics by influencing the lives of individuals who read or hear Christ's teachings from the Bible and are changed by them.
