Doug Phillips on the Mayans
Apparently, Doug Phillips is visiting Chichén Itzá, a major Mayan city. For his commentary and for pictures, visit these links:

This last article was particularly insightful:
As Americans venture into our own world of twenty-first century bio-ethical horrors (raising tiny babies for stem cell experimentation, cloning for body harvesting, vivisecting our own children through abortion to appease the gods of convenience, using the body parts of aborted children for cosmetics and medicines, etc.), we would be well served to remember that advanced technology, civilization, and bloody savagery can dwell side-by-side. They can feed off of each other.
