Happy Birthday from Facebook

Last updated on: December 4, 2012 at 4:27 pm   By Brad Williams

Yesterday was my birthday. For real. (Please do not use that information to steal my identity or something nefarious like that.) I announce this because I love birthdays. I stay up until midnight for my birthday each year just so I can see when I get a year older. I’m a bit of a birthday weirdo like that. But enough about me and my awesome birthday! I want to write about a real birthday wonder that affects you if you... Read more

Good OK-Drama: Coffee Prince

Last updated on: December 4, 2012 at 9:17 am   By Seth T. Hahne

Good OK-Drama is a very occasional series looking at various examples of Korean drama (the almost-popular, not-quite-underground wave of television excitement oozing out of your favourite digital video outlets). In even the small sample of kdramas my wife and I have recently enjoyed (we’ve so far watched seven series to completion), we notice the reccurance of a handful of tropes. Sometimes it’s plot devices that have evidently proven popular with the shows’ intended audiences. Sometimes it’s common themes that fit... Read more

Kate Middleton’s Pregnancy and the Jesus Juke

Last updated on: December 3, 2012 at 9:55 pm   By Erin Wyble Newcomb

CAPC co-founder, writer, editor, etc. (I’m sure he has more titles that I’m too low-ranking to know about) Alan Noble taught me about the “Jesus Juke.” For a complete definition, including examples, see John Acuff’s “Stuff Christians Like” site on the “Jesus Juke”. I learned of this term from Alan, but I’d certainly seen the concept at work long before I knew its name. It was the first thing that occurred to me when I read this piece of news:... Read more

If I were Justin Bieber, I’d Press Charges against Jenny McCarthy

Last updated on: December 2, 2012 at 6:59 pm   By Drew Dixon

If we are truly concerned with the persistence of sexual harassment in society, we must not make the mistake of blowing it off when anyone, be they male or female, is guilty of committing it. Read more

Selfishness and Selflessness in Videogames

Last updated on: November 29, 2012 at 11:35 pm   By Drew Dixon

Our editor-in-chief here at Christ and Pop Culture, Richard Clark, has written an interesting article for Nightmare Mode on how games feed our natural self-centeredness and present us with player-centric worlds: Because of how deceptively attractive a world created for our personal pleasure can be, when we stumble upon one that works for us, we are markedly protective of them. They begin to take a holistic role in our lives, living in our thoughts as we work and interact with others. The... Read more
