2011 was also the year that this blog died. Tomorrow marks the 5th anniversary of the start of this blog, so it is appropriate that I wrap it up today 880 posts later. The blog evolved a lot over the years, but recently my interest in keeping it going has waned (in case you hadn't noticed), along with the time required to invest in it. Three kids can tend to do that. It was fun while it lasted. I got to give out a bunch of books via March Madness bracket competitions, and post Best of the Year movie awards, and highlight good articles and columns by Mark Steyn, Doug Wilson, Theodore Dalrymple, among many others.
The top 5 most viewed pages:
1. Pay No Attention to that Burning Ball of Gas!
2. Babies and Abortion, Part II
3. Wilson on Twilight, Cartoon Porn, and Domestic Abuse (the traffic for this post was largely due to the word "porn" in the title)
4. I See Old People
5. A Good Sign
The most commented on post was easily this one ("Mike" and I went back and forth for awhile about the ethics of killing in defense of an innocent).
For those still reading, thanks for joining me for at least some of this five-year journey and for the occasional comment. Adios.

Farewell, Darius. I've really enjoyed debating you over the years. Actually, I didn't always enjoy it. Sometimes I actually wanted to punch you in the face...in love, of course. But I know you are a man of God and that makes you my brother, and any man who doesn't love his brother cannot love God. So I guess that means I love you, but don't go gettin' all sappy on me and whatnot. Blessings.

P.S. Remeber that time I got you on that conference call? I can guarantee you the Obama people looked you up. How's that for putting Echoes in Eternity on the map?!
Hey Chris, it's been a long time! I had been wondering what happened to you. I hope all is well. Thanks for reading and commenting, I've loved our debates over the years.
Blessings.
P.S. Yep, I remember that conference call with the Obama admin. Very interesting.
