The “Majority Victimhood”

…an entrepreneur, they should be able to choose their clients. When I was a freelance writer, I wouldn’t dream of writing copy for things that went against my beliefs – even if the pay was great.

Romney Banking on Trump’s Birthers Pulling Him Over Finish Line

…t the Koran is, that there’s a lot of hate in the Koran. Because Romney’s religion relies on a sacred text that other people who might get Romney over 50% think is satanic, you’d think Romney might have some discomfort with this blatant disparaging of other peoples’ religion.

…, as modeled in the Gospel account of the Visitation of Mary to her cousin Elizabeth” as one “eyebrow-raising paragraph” in the report asserted—this revisionist history is pure fantasy. Rather than do it themselves, the men deputized Mary Clare Millea, A.S.C.J., to direct written materials and in person visits from 2009-2012 to more than 400 “entities” of religious communities in the United States. While some of the visits were cordial enough, acc…

…the Jewish community) and eighties, there was a larger embrace of Jewish religious language, spurred on by the writings of Abraham Joshua Heschel and Gershom Scholem.

Too many pastors are being intimidated, they believe, by restrictions against political endorsements by tax-exempt nonprofits (501c3 groups in IRS lingo) which includes churches.

…th shallow understandings of their own traditions—to say nothing of anyone else’s religion. Meanwhile, some of the spiritual students (though certainly not all) are those who work the hardest to figure out what they can believe in or sign on for, while still maintaining a sense of personal integrity. Outside of my professional life, the issue for me (as I presume for anyone out there who is still reading) is also quite personal, because I cannot c…
