By Peter Gathje

…uples. The third criterion Dr. King identifies is that “an unjust law is a code that a numerical or power majority group compels a minority group to obey but does not make binding on itself.

By Daniel Schultz

…mate sacrifice –part of over 4,400 Americans who have given their lives in Iraq. As one staff sergeant said, “I know that to my brothers in arms who fought and died, this day would probably mean a lot.” Those Americans gave their lives for the values that have lived in the hearts of our people for over two centuries. Along with nearly 1.5 million Americans who have served in Iraq, they fought in a faraway place for people they never knew. I’d like…

The Legacy of Bush, Gambler of Other People’s Fortunes, Is Still With Us

By Louis A. Ruprecht

…e need money, a lot if it, and fast. The men who gave us Afghanistan, then Iraq, are now the same men who are trying to get us out of Iraq so that we can gamble in Afghanistan with larger stakes. It’s all a bit strange and surreal. Dostoevsky’s narrator has a keen nose for gambling. He could smell when someone was about to lose their shirt.

According to Amir Ashour, the remarkable founder of IraQueer—a charity to support LGBTQI+ citizens in Iraq—queer people are publically exposed by Isis with their names and photos on walls around Baghdad. “In some parts of the country, if it is even discovered that you know a queer person, it can be very dangerous.” Amir explained that on one of these “killing lists . . . a person’s crime was having long hair.

“Evil,” a Cautionary Tale For Iran

By Louis A. Ruprecht

…ere in six long years (admittedly we hadn’t done much better before then). Iraq was invaded, dismantled, and, unlike Humpty Dumpty, not put back together again. But Iran provides the most important cautionary tale when it comes to the language of evil in modern politics; it is that nation’s president that Hannity so recklessly proposes “taking out.” From the Iranian perspective, then, the needs of the moment are clear enough.

With no support, al-Zawahiri (and al-Qae…

…bortion recognize and articulate the need for such an agenda even if it is promoted by a candidate who is pro-choice. Boston College theologian Lisa Sowle Cahill’s approach is to criticize those bishops that “have come dangerously close to making implicit political endorsements by telling Catholics that abortion trumps all other moral issues and lashing out against the Democratic Party.” She is a Catholic scholar who opposes abortion but recognize…

Priests in Glass Houses Shouldn’t Throw Wafers

By Candace Chellew-Hodge

…who said in his Easter message last year that “nothing positive comes from Iraq.” Benedict’s predecessor Pope John Paul II strongly opposed the Iraq war even before it began. Wouldn’t those who cast their vote for McCain be just as guilty of supporting evil in the world? The message here is that no one’s hands are clean and the purpose of communion is not to come to the table already clean—but experience the cleansing presence of the Christ. Let h…
