New York City also desperately needs new airports, which I’m sure we could build up at least partway, and then address the American people as to why we were forced to build it without clearing it first; after all, New York is vital to the American and global economy.

…John 10:10). He had the courage to tell the naked truth about it while the New York Times lied about it for nearly the whole 20th century.” Noebel’s reissue of the Schwarz book, titled You Can Still Trust the Communists to Be Communists (Socialists and Progressives Too), pays homage to Skousen as well, noting that in 1958 he compiled a list of 45 “current communist goals,” six of which, Noebel writes, have already been fulfilled: to present homose…

By Brandy Daniels

…shapes racial-religious discourse (think of the Muslim cultural center in New York, the immigration debate in Arizona, etc.) is the same problematic theo-logic behind the borders that define public discourse on sexuality and religion.

…ch was published by Crossway. Moving on to Driscoll’s highly publicized #1 New York Times bestseller Real Marriage, co-written with Driscoll’s wife Grace, one finds multiple instances of using Allender’s work without citation, including chapters supposedly written by Grace.

…or religious practice, but because they think it’s safer. In Poughkeepsie, New York, a local Jewish group has been given the okay to place a menorah on public property downtown—they just can’t use city resources to build it or light it.

By Hussein Rashid

…lt position is to concede to the imagined demands of radicals. Neither the New York Times nor experts like Marc Lynch see this as an overseas issue. If he really is an expert on building bridges, he should have worked harder on a proactive strategy.

By Shane Burley

…DL “Jewish Panthers.” He respected Sonny Carson (a local Black militant in New York) and Stokely Carmichael along with Malcolm X. He also thought they were antisemites and he fought Black antisemitism, which was the reason for him starting the Jewish Defense League during the 1968 New York City school strike (due to the antisemitism directed at union president Albert Shanker). So Black antisemitism does play a role. He had this kind of twisted rel…

American Buddhism: Beyond the Search for Inner Peace

By Joshua Eaton

…Buddhist nun. We had already heard that an occupy movement had started in New York, but from what we read, it sounded frenzied and unruly. The following week, however, I received an invitation from the ministers at Judson Memorial Church [Rev. Michael Ellison] to attend a meeting of clergy that would lay the foundation for a movement of faith leaders in harmony with the aims of Occupy Wall Street (which by then had assumed this name). I attended…
