…rents who dared to discipline their children. For this “notice-that-dad-has-a-penis” shower moment to be effective, Dobson explains that it must be performed by a father who has previously used painful discipline on his son to establish authority.

…nt. Religion Dispatches had the chance to talk with Bishop Spong about his new book, as well as his take on how religion has been shaping—and misshaping—the political landscape. __________ RD: One of the things you are fighting against in this book is a literal reading of the Bible.

Fix the Economy GOD’$ WAY: Dave Ramsey’s Great Christian Recovery

By Paul Harvey

…the investor who emulates the tortoise rather than the hare. He scorns get-rich-quick schemes, and assures listeners that after getting out of debt permanently and cutting up all your credit cards, long-term equity investing is the route to tremendous wealth.
