Hurricane Sandy Spawns Right-Wing Theodicy

By Candace Chellew-Hodge

…ne is a huge bucket of vomit in America’s face during the election. What a sign from the holy God of Israel that American politics is an abomination to Him. A pro-homosexual Mormon along with a pro-abortion/homosexual, Muslim Brotherhood promoter, Hard Left Fascist are running for president. And there is no cry of repentance from God’s people! I see this storm as a warning from the LORD to call His church to repentance, This might be the last call…

Let Michael Vick Play! The Ethics of Reinstatement

By Jonathan L. Walton

…take (the one time highest paid player in the NFL will most likely will be signed at league minimum), what more should we fairly expect? As a society we should not place a yoke around this young man’s neck that we don’t expect others to bear.

…nd conferences later, the Charter was unveiled in November 2009. Those who sign on can do several things: they can sign the Charter (over 30,000 have so far); they can create an event related to the Charter in their hometown; and they can share a story on the site.

By Kate Childs Graham

…of H.R. 5950. Over twenty organizations representing many different faiths signed on to this letter. However, one signature was missing: The US Conference of Catholic Bishops. They are involved with the Interfaith Immigration Coalition and they are great advocates for comprehensive immigration reform. However, they did not sign on to this letter. So, why don’t the bishops support H.R. 5950? My guess: family planning. Now, the bill doesn’t state th…

Evangelicals and Newt: Love Him or Hate Him?

By Sarah Posner

…ey would use terms like “sanctity” and “traditional marriage” and “God’s design” and all that. Not that mushy “values we hold so dear.” It’s not just values we hold so dear — it’s God’s command, God’s plan, God’s design for men, women and the family. (Have the Iowans for Christian Leaders in Government read anything Vander Plaats has written?)

Sit Down and Shut Up: Pulling Mindfulness Up By Its (Buddhist) Roots

By Max Zahn

…eces, and celebrity testimonials attest, the mindfulness industry shows no sign of a slowdown. Apple has even built a mindfulness tool—reminding users to “breathe”—for its newest Apple Watch. The rise of corporate mindfulness has rendered Buddhism far whiter and wealthier than it has ever been. For some immigrant Asian Buddhists and other politically engaged practitioners, the trend is reminiscent of the divorce of yoga from its religious roots. V…
