By David Walker

…d just been “taken” for the cost of a decent meal. Was the movie worth the ticket price? I think so, but then again I am a fan of stage-magic history and (references to) Nietzsche. And I’m less inclined than others to complain about Magic in the Moonlight being a “hollow shell,” because, well, I think the raison d’etre of magic itself is to create miniature containers for critical thought.

A Pence Presidency Would Give Margaret Atwood’s Dystopian Vision a Run for its Money

By Diane Winston

…ates 24/7 surveillance of citizens. Ever since Mike Pence joined the Trump ticket, I’ve been haunted by Duvall’s character. What would that quiet, white, Christian male authority look like in today’s world, and what kind of society would Commander, oops, President Pence seek to build? As Trump’s troubles grow by the hour so does the urgency of these questions. Online and off, the term Christofascism is creeping into conversations. Christofascism,…

Biblical Patriarchy Advocates Celebrate Titanic 100th with “Women and Children First” Theme

By Julie Ingersoll

…y three times the survival rate of those in third. One would only use “raw numbers” if one was trying to make a point not supported by the numbers.

Earlier in her congressional career, Ferraro worked with Catholics for a Free Choice in fostering discussions among her fellow Catholic members of Congress.
